Stop Guessing Your Trade Size

Most traders focus on entry points and forget about position sizing. That's backwards. You can have the best strategy in the world, but if you're risking too much per trade, one bad week wipes you out. We teach you how to calculate exactly how much to risk based on your account and the specific trade setup.

Why Position Sizing Matters More Than You Think

Here's something that took me years to figure out. You could be right about market direction 70% of the time and still lose money if your position sizes are wrong. It's not about how often you win—it's about how much you win when you're right and how little you lose when you're wrong.

Protect Your Capital

Risk too much on one trade and a losing streak becomes devastating. We show you how to keep risk consistent so your account can survive the inevitable rough patches.

Scale With Confidence

As your account grows, your position sizes should adjust. Not arbitrarily—based on actual math that accounts for volatility and your risk tolerance.

Sleep Better at Night

When you know exactly how much you're risking and why, trading becomes less stressful. No more wondering if you bet too much on a single position.

The Math Isn't Complicated Once You Get It

Position sizing sounds technical, but the formulas are straightforward. You need to know your account size, how much you're willing to lose on the trade, and where your stop loss sits. That's it.

The tricky part is applying it consistently across different instruments—stocks move differently than forex, and options have their own quirks. We walk through real examples so you understand the logic behind each calculation.

During our autumn 2025 sessions, participants work through their actual trading accounts to see where they might be over-leveraged or leaving money on the table.

You'll also learn how to adjust for correlation. If you're long three tech stocks, you're not really diversifying your risk—you need to account for that when sizing each position.

How the Program Works

Foundation Module

We start with risk tolerance assessment and account analysis. You need to know where you stand before calculating position sizes. This takes about two weeks and includes worksheets you fill out based on your trading history.

Formula Application

Next comes the actual math. We teach the core formulas, then apply them to different asset classes. You'll practice calculating positions for stocks, forex pairs, and futures contracts using historical examples.

Real Account Practice

The final phase involves analyzing your own trades. You'll recalculate position sizes for past trades to see where you could have done better. This is where things click for most people—seeing the difference in potential outcomes.

Ongoing Support

After the core program wraps in early 2026, you get access to monthly review sessions where we look at current market conditions and discuss position sizing adjustments based on volatility changes.

What Participants Are Saying

Eirik Thorsen

Independent Trader

I thought I had position sizing figured out, but I was just winging it. The program showed me I was consistently risking 4-5% per trade when I thought it was 2%. That realization alone changed how I approach every setup now.

Branimir Kovačević

Portfolio Manager

The correlation section was eye-opening. I'd been sizing positions individually without considering how they moved together. Once I adjusted for that, my actual portfolio risk dropped by nearly 30% without changing my strategy.
