- 01Why Most Traders Lose: Psychology and StatisticsThe one number that scares good traders, and why risk skill, not lucky guessing, is what keeps you alive.
- 02Position Sizing PrinciplesRisk a tiny fixed slice per trade so no single loss can hurt you: decide the loss, let the math pick the size.
- 03Leverage and Margin MechanicsLeverage doesn't add edge, it just moves your liquidation closer. Set it on purpose, not on tilt.
- 04Liquidation: How It Works and How to Avoid ItLiquidation isn't random: it's a price you can know before you enter, and push far away on purpose.
- 05Stop-Loss and Take-Profit StrategyDecide where you'll exit (win or lose) before you enter, so emotion never picks for you.
- 06Cognitive Biases in TradingYour own brain is the final boss. Spot the biases that blow up accounts, and the fix for each.
- 07Building a Personal Risk FrameworkTurn the whole course into one short rule card you decide in calm and follow in chaos.
