FOREX RISK MANAGEMENT

Whats your risk % per trade?
Or should i say, what�s your risk appetite?
To be a successful forex trader. You will need to have a proper money management system.
It starts with identifying what level of risk % per trade will you risk.
As a guide, a safe and good risk percentage will be from 1% � 3%.
Anything higher than 3% will be relatively risky.
Why is this so.
If you understand, the forex market can do anything.
Even if you are sure this is the MOST perfect setup.
It MAY NOT end up the way you expected it to be.
Why?
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
First, you must understand that anything can happen in the forex market.
Just for example, even if it is the most perfect setup. If a major institution pumps in a large sum of money at that period of time. It can change the direction of the market for a short time frame.
And when the retail investors see the market moving in the direction stipulated by the major institution, they will then follow suit and enter the same way.
WHICH causes the movements in the market.
But of course, this doesn�t happen always.
What i�m saying is, anything can happen in the forex market.
So even if you are the best forex trader in the world. You will not have a 100% winning rate as well.
You will still lose as the market can do anything.
Which is why, it is not wise to have a high risk per trade.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if a trader risk 10% per trade.
And a series of unfortunate events happen to him, (maybe it�s a distraction, maybe there�s an earthquake etc)
As a result, he made a series of 5 losing trades.
He would have wipe of 50% +- of his trading capital because he risked 10% per trade.
And with just 50% left, it will be hard for him to make back his loss.
So if you see what i meant.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if you risk 2% per trade.
With a series of 5 losing trades. You would only lose 10%+- of your capital.
Which is not to bad.
With a good trading system, we can easily make back the money loss.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
But here comes the big question.
What is your risk appetite?
You see, there is absolutely no point into asking you to risk 1% per trade.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Capital $5000
Risk of 1% = $50 per trade.
If at the back of your mind, you do feel that $50 per trade is too little.
Then you will most likely find and trade even more trades that you usually should � in order to make more money. Right?
Therefore, the correct way to set your risk % per trade varies with different individuals.
You must ask yourself.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Will you be satisfied with
$50 per trade or
$100 per trade or
$150 per trade
based on the capital of $5000
Once you got an answer, you got your risk percentage.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
Remember,
1) Your risk percentage cannot be too high. As mention a good gauge is 1% � 3%.
2) Your risk percentage must meet your risk appetite. There is no point in risking 1% if you find the amount too little and does not satisfy your hunger.
So there you go.
Once you have set and decided on your risk % per trade.
STICK FIRMLY TO IT!
For example, in a series of trades. You cannot have eg. 1% on 5 trades, then 3% on 5 trades etc.
Because if you play it this way, and what if you make money on the 5 trades with 1% risked, and lose money on the 5 trades with 3% risked. (which usually happens!)
YOU WILL LOSE MONEY!
Therefore, stick firmly to the risk percentage per trade which you have set.
Eg. If you set 2% risk per trade.
From now on, every trade you take � You will risk 2% per trade.
NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS.
This way, you will be consistent and you are on the right track to success.

[yamibux]

I sometimes enter the market by 3% of risk capital
This percentage is very small and used in the accounts of small micro
Enter the times, but 30% sure if the access point and a successful deal

[yamibux]

I Use Low risk by 3% from the account
But I sometimes venture to a very large up to 30%
But we must be cautious when entering into the market of that magnitude
Percentage of risk is measured on the size of the account is it a small or medium or large, and also measured the size of Pluto, which will be accessed by the transaction

[jabrik1991]

I sometimes enter the market by 3% of risk capital
This percentage is very small and used in the accounts of small micro
Enter the times, but 30% sure if the access point and a successful deal

with the use of 3% how much leverage you use., whether the benefits achieved in accordance with the security of capital. I want to be an explanation of your system, I am a beginner in this business, please guidance ...

[Anand]

Percentage of risk is measured on the size of the account.It is depend on your own risk big or small.I am use 5% risk and profit at 8% to 10%.I am trading with small amount.

[jabrik1991]

if I think it depends on each trader, I use the risk per trade of about 2-5%, it also depends on market conditions that support. if I do not trade too risky because there is still tomorrow.
good luck :good:

with minimal risk of 2-5% as it is written you., about how much profit you get. whether each month,. ,, It looks like it's also good management.,,,

[venkiaries61]

with minimal risk of 2-5% as it is written you., about how much profit you get. whether each month,. ,, It looks like it's also good management.,,,

hi, please accept this fact. There is also truth behind money management, you can follow any follow mm like above. but , dont try to fix monthly target. market condition is not same at all. if you fix target, then you will try to work for long. its better to copup with market.

[meyi80]

my risk per trade is max 2%, mo matter how many the position i'm open. I've never open another position until the previous position being completely closed, winning or lossing.

[wolfkamikaz]

me too my risk is 2% to my ballance i have the article about risk analysis per trade in Forex. I find it very interesting facts and figures.
I think one should do his analysis before taking any decision of cashing out or investing.

[earncommunity]

i have always tried to maintain the loss per trade to 3% of my account. most of the time my losses occurred when i failed to obey the rules of money management. to have success with forex always stick to your money management rules.

[satriafu150]

my risk per trade is max 2%... why?? because i think this is the ideal risk percentage for a forex trading... but i don't know this is true or false for secure category risk percentage forex trading...

[Night Dreamz]

my risk per trade is max 5%

[da2ng1]

if i trade i use 2 % until 10 % from my account, it depend from market and money management i make . because some time i use different strategy trading because situstion in trading market forex make me decision that.

[anubhavsingh]

i risk 4% of capital per trade and not more than that and i have risked 20% of capital previously and lost my account. so i have rectified my mistake and make profits wth less risk

mera risk percentage kuch fix nahi ahi..trade to trade change hota rehta hai aur pair pe bhi depend karta hai
me support aur resistence dekh ke risk decide karta hon..pehle se hi apne man se kuch decide nahi karta..mujhe ye tarika bahut safe lagta hai

[yogesh]

The more you risk the more you can expect to earn, but in expectation of big earning we should not take unreasonable and high risk, so better to go trading with reasonable stop loss that is at instant support or resistance and instant target and stick to that.

[da2ng1]

for percentage risk i have for trading is about 1% until 20% from capital. but befire that we must learn about market condition and make planning to nex step when trading. if in that day have a big risk we must just open 1% until 8% from our account.

[metroearn]

i am using 1% risk and sometime it depends on market condition . if any pair moved too much then i decided to take 2% to 5% risk highest.
But your risk should be less then 5% otherwise it must be risky.

[Snoopy1234]

Therefore i am scalping, i am using 1% of my equity with one trade. Max. 3 trades where made at once. With no martingale. So i invested max. 3%.

[irzan]

I see that everyone starts to review the Administration of capital because it has become difficult to search for a successful strategy

Do not enter more than 1% of your account!

And you will find and see what were not imagine never

[drdeepakji]

risk management is individuals choice and confidence..if i am confident about the trend i wont mind to to take risk as big as 10 20 percent though i haven't started yet but i think its all about your plans and predictions..

[atif58]

I do trade using risk of 5% of my account. And desire a profit of 5% also. Sometimes my desire of profit increased to 10% but i never risk more then 5%.

[nona]

I used a risk ratio of 3% of the capital which is appropriate for me because a lot and lost a lot when you gamble by the largest of these lost in 2 minutes $ 300
Since then has taken the decision not to raise the proportion of the loss of 3% of the capital and the capital management firm successful

[burayak]

risks that should be taken by the trader is a risk that has been tailored to the strategies and systems used and in accordance with the money management of each trader's own so it will be able to produce good decisions and correct.

[ermaniso2011]

l think the best method is when your risk is 2% your reward target should be at least %4 .when l trader can really follow money management rules. then will be very successful.our main problem is greed.sometimes doubling the capital in one day is not enough for us :)

[lax]

The risk %age that a trader should usually use when opening a position in any market should be no more tha 20% and you should usually use a leverage of 1:20 and maintain it without compounding your margin.

[ericnyamu]

i like the way nison puts it " risk reward is as important as the trade itself" that really says alot most of the time we get excited when we see a huge big candle and donot calculate our risk reward and most of the time the trade goes against us . we should always put risk management first

[fxquest]

l think the best method is when your risk is 2% your reward target should be at least %4 .when l trader can really follow money management rules. then will be very successful.our main problem is greed.sometimes doubling the capital in one day is not enough for us :)

I think it should depend on the trading strategy one is using as to how much percent of capital one should invest on a single trade. I usually spend 5% of my balance on a single trade and so that i am able to open 10 trades at different levels, yes that is if our trade goes in loss some balance is not available for that.

[naik]

For an account balance of 100 dollars, i choose to trade with 0.10 dollar lot size. This is a minimized risks for me and it it about less than 10, percent risk and it is a good risk reward ratio for any trader.

[ericnyamu]

well i agree with every one here . a 3% of equity on ech trade is nice and profitable . this is how to know how to apply the 3% rule . calculate 3% of the equity you have . take the stoploss in **** and multiply with the lots you'll trade . the number you get shouldn't be more than the 3% of your equity you calculated earlier on

[ashwini]

i have doing trading in 2nos account..
in first accoutn.. i set the leverage.. 1:5 , with account balance 500$
in 2nd account.. i set the leverage..1:200 . with account balance 100$

on first account i 2% risk as a loss.. there my trading amount is 10$.. and as a stoploss.. i risk my 10$
where on 2nd account i take the order of 100$ and take 50% risk..

[kuldeep]

my risk persentage is always depend upon the condition of market if condition is good the percentage of risk is almost 0but in worst cases it would be more normally the risk percentage is 50 50as my opinion

[anubhavsingh]

The more you risk the more you can expect to earn, but in expectation of big earning we should not take unreasonable and high risk, so better to go trading with reasonable stop loss that is at instant support or resistance and instant target and stick to that.

forex me kabhi bhi emotions ke aage jhukna nahi chahaiye kyunki emotions ka bahut bada role hota hai trade ke loss me
isliye trader ko hamesha apni strategy ke hisab se hi trading karni chhaiye na ki emotions aur greed ki madad se trading stratgey me changes lane hchaiye..jo bhiu trader forex me greed aur emotions pe kabu rakh ke trading karta hai usske liye trading abhut faydemand hoti hai

[alam]

In my live trades, I risk usually 50% of my margin. This is because I consider my capital to be small. Now I intend to reduce my risk percentage per trade to 20%. It will be easier to earn nice profits and at the same time have some capital left if the trade goes bad.

[FxBd]

In every business there are risks in.No business is without risks and the risks is per trade is 3%.If the traders do well in the forex market then the percentage of risks go down and the range of profit goes up rapidly.

[nilesh]

I do trade using risk of 5% of my account. And desire a profit of 5% also. Sometimes my desire of profit increased to 10% but i never risk more then 5%.

[ashwini]

i have three account where i take 2% risk on first acccount and 20% risk on 2nd account and on 3rd accont i take 100% risk ..

[nilesh]

please accept this fact. There is also truth behind money management, you can follow any follow mm like above. but , dont try to fix monthly target. market condition is not same at all. if you fix target, then you will try to work for long. its better to copup with market.

[anangok]

My target maximum losses of 10% of the capital, because in the event of floating minus, I always hope the price will reverse direction again and get the profit. but if not I'll cut losses after hitting 10% of the capital.

[sibali]

my risk per trade is max 2%, mo matter how many the position i'm open. I've never open another position until the previous position being completely closed, winning or lossing.

I really appreciate your percentage. may be retained. The smaller the risk that we apply the secure trading activities we perform. remember the market can't be countered. We just try to keep it to survive and enlarge the opportunities of profit achieved

[iwan]

I would put SL to cover the possibility of loss, up to 10% of my capital. because I'll give a little wiggle room when it should happen on the trade and floating minus the price reverses direction to collect the profit.

[niteshforex]

In my live trades, I risk usually 50% of my margin. This is because I consider my capital to be small. Now I intend to reduce my risk percentage per trade to 20%. It will be easier to earn nice profits and at the same time have some capital left if the trade goes bad.

[clickme]

Risk percentage per is 5% of you total balance. but some traders think that is not enough they can take more risk. but i can say do not try to get more then 5% of the trading risk. it may make you big loss and your trades can be a flat position after a big loss, where you cannot go backward or go on.

[Tarek]

To have confidence in you, you must learn how to manage your risk management, and try before you enter a transaction to use a very small lot to confirm your entry, but you must first create a plan to do all those steps .. after you will avoid all risks and you will earn a good profit.

[maryosa]

My plan of risk is 10% of balance in every trade. Even if account very small, do not mind that but risk very little so that account will be available to trade if market very good. If risk too much, then will not have enough money in account to trade good market signal.

[amit]

bhai aap ka risk to mein samjhta hun bohot kem hey or is market mein survive kernay k liye bohot bhadia, mein 5% sey ley ker 10% risk leta hun apnay capital ka jo k meray liye ab tek sehi ja reha hey,

[scorpian7]

Always go with minimum risk possible . It will keep you alive in this amazing world of forex . Because nothing is for sure and you get busted even when you are sure .

[scorpian7]

by the way will you please elaborate your trading plan. what should be the contours of trading plan. can you give any example of what you are saying.

[scorpian7]

Its your view which I disagree . you incur your 10 percent of total capital which is very much high . By the way how long you remain in the market with your 100 $.

[sasmita11]

As a guide a safe and good risk percentage will be from 1%-3%
anything higher than 3% will be relatively risky.ou must understand that anything can happen in forex market,

[anubhavsingh]

Always go with minimum risk possible . It will keep you alive in this amazing world of forex . Because nothing is for sure and you get busted even when you are sure .

forex me mera risk percentage kabhi bhi fix nahi hota kyunki me apna risk percentage hamesha pair ke hisab se aur uske support aur resistence ke hisab se hi set karta hon
kayi baar mear risk percebtage 5% hota hai kabhi 10% hota hai kabhi 4 % hota hai to kabhui 12 % hota hau..ye sba market pe depend karta hai ki me kab kausne [pair me trading kar raha hon

[xiaotanghao]

For me, I usually risk 10% pre trade in forex.I do know I have risk so high there,but I just invest more than $100 there and trade 0.01 lot every time.In that case,I may make some more pips in forex.

[examin]

i am using multi money management but i will tell you about that i am interesting for it in this time in this example if you have simple strategy give you 50% success and this is generally random strategy you make 1:1 ratio stop loss and take profit this mean you will get 50% prospect for each of them and you will get 50% amount to loss and win, if you change the lot size to double after you loss for 3 level you will get good result.

[newentry]

sometimes i just take the higher risk when i saw a good chance in front of me and i was sure for it that i could take it with safe..
5 % - 10 % ...and with this i can get more profit ...i am a scalper so i just need a little time for it and the target is always touched by the market
the important thing here that we have to know the target with relevant

[kashifrehman]

It must not be different for all because this leads towards loss and do not take percentage of your equity always consider your current trade. I risk 3 times of my margin used.

[examin]

I sometimes enter the market by 3% of risk capital
This percentage is very small and used in the accounts of small micro
Enter the times, but 30% sure if the access point and a successful deal
i think that 3% of capital is big risk on your capital at long time trader can lose all capital slowly , trader must have no fixed risk on the management mean change the lot size by changing the ballance.

[Shady Moustafa]

For me i am trading and my strategy is to make stop loss -100 pips for every trade and i find it good for my strategy also it will changes from strategy to another.

[rajesh]

Meri deals ka risk percentage fix nahi hai kyunki me har deal me stop loss set karta hon wo bhi us deal ke support/resistance ke hisab se
to kayi baar mera risk percentage kam hota hai kayi baar zada hota hai..me kisi fix value pe stop loss set nahi karta..market ke hibsa se aur apne trading pair ke hisab se value sset karta hon

[sachin]

The more you risk the more you can expect to earn, but in expectation of big earning we should not take unreasonable and high risk, so better to go trading with reasonable stop loss that is at instant support or resistance and instant target and stick to that.

[dintera]

Expert traders know to make use of the risky Forex trading into a winning trades. We have to remember that if we don�t take meaningful risks then we just won�t make a lot of money. We also know that too many traders are trying to protect the money they have now to minimize loss. What they end up doing is minimizing income. Day trading or only risking a 2% margin per trade won�t get us much in the end. Why risk a little when we are still risking. If we are certain that we will make a profit, then go higher on the risk. If we think it won�t do well, and we are certain we will lose so we set the amount low, why trade in the first place?

[Protech]

hazard management is actually individuals selection and self-assurance.. in the event that i feel confident regarding the actual trend i wont mind in order to to be able to take danger as big as 10 20 percent though i haven't established still yet i think its every about your plans and forecasts..

[forexxx]

mere tradiong experiance main wo depend hota hai market ke strength main main jada se jada 3% use karta hu ye mujhe really usefull padata hai.aur uske sath good money managemnt use karke trading karta hu

[norix]

depending on the style of each trading scalp trader, trading days ... an experience of risk management that any beginner should read and follow I think people often risk management is less than 3%

I always take the risk of not more than 40% I think it is for me very much because I always had a habit of doubling the value of lots that are experiencing losses
then I can cover losses only through such strategies

[sinaga]

what you use the percentage as much as it is in the trade is not afraid to be hit by Margin Call brother. It seems to me too much. I use a percentage of 3-5% of the funds I had to trade. and even then I only take advantage of 20-30 pps in a day. trading risk you very big brother

[teje]

enter the market when I only use 2% of my total margin, and my profit target in just 30 pips a day, and I never put a stop loss when conducting a transaction, because I would do avereging when I have experienced the loss of 500-600 pips

[tiar]

money management is a must,, i use less than 2% from capital, so can hold up many pips.. depending the leverage we used. in instaforex i use leverage 1:1000
i use this leverage to save my trading..

[adahidayat]

my risk factor is to do not risk more than 10% of my capital..i will always open trades which only risk my 5% of my capital...but if i think that there is more chances that market will favor my opened positions...then i will take more calculative risk and risk about 10% of my capital...but it is not wise to risk more than 10% of capital....

[aryan]

forex me kabhi bhi emotions ke aage jhukna nahi chahaiye kyunki emotions ka bahut bada role hota hai trade ke loss me
isliye trader ko hamesha apni strategy ke hisab se hi trading karni chhaiye na ki emotions aur greed ki madad se trading stratgey me changes lane hchaiye..jo bhiu trader forex me greed aur emotions pe kabu rakh ke trading karta hai usske liye trading abhut faydemand hoti hai

[patil]

jis pair par hum trade kar rahe hai sabse pahle us pair ke bare mein kafi kuch pata hona chahiye jis frame se hum trade open karenge us frame ke hisab se hume suport aur resistance ko dekhte huye aur news fundamental sab par nazar rakh kar hume target set karna chahiye

[anchitkole]

sometimes i just take the higher risk when i saw a good chance in front of me and i was sure for it that i could take it with safe..
5 % - 10 % ...and with this i can get more profit ...i am a scalper so i just need a little time for it and the target is always touched by the market
the important thing here that we have to know the target with relevant

[anubhavsingh]

meri trade ka risk percentage fix nahi hota kyunki me hamesha apna stop loss market ke support aur resistance ke hisba se set karta hon..mujhe lagta hai ki market ke support aur resistance kabhi fix nahi hote is wajah se mera stop loss bhi fix nahi hai

[jai]

I think it should depend on the trading strategy one is using as to how much percent of capital one should invest on a single trade. I usually spend 5% of my balance on a single trade and so that i am able to open 10 trades at different levels, yes that is if our trade goes in loss some balance is not available for that.

[tatnasharlock]

risk management is so important... i risk my 2.5% of balance per trade... by the way, i have a certain rules of opening trade... i divide my lot into 3 parts and make each trade if the trade goes against me 1/3 of my stop loss. thus gave me little loss but grater profit... you should try!

[justpips]

maximum lot that I use in every position is 0.1 lot. I can give good reason, because I was the type of trader who likes to open a lot of positions when the previous position was floating loss, rather martiangle techniques. I really like the technique, and hated. essentially the maximum overall lot is approximately 20% of the total margin that I have.

[manibhai2012]

Thanks a lot sir very nice sharing I think that risk and money management is the key for making money from any type of business but in the field of the Forex business I think its become more important because it is business where any thing can happen.Trade smart and happy trading to all.

[jiching]

i always place many pending orders. in a day, i place about ten up to twenty PO, which they must have 200 pips balance, if the price against my price, i don't confused. i don't care the price makes floating, i think it is fate the price will go up dan down. with the good and strong balance, i can get many profits rather than loss..

[mandeeprana]

maximum lot that I use in every position is 0.1 lot. I can give good reason, because I was the type of trader who likes to open a lot of positions when the previous position was floating loss, rather martiangle techniques. I really like the technique, and hated. essentially the maximum overall lot is approximately 20% of the total margin that I have.

mere account me bahut hi kam paisa hai is waja hse me bhi chota lot size se hi trade karta hon
maine ab tak zyada se zyada 0.02 ka lot size trade kiya hai..isse zyada nahi kiya

[anubhavsingh]

I tolerate the risk of loss a day at most 5% of total capital. Within a week I make a composition: 5 x trading - 2 x 5% + 3 x 5% (profit). With mental readiness, I was routinely getting 30-100% profit per week.

me aise fix percentage rakhne me bharosa nahi rakhta..me to hamehsa yahi koshish karta hon ki market ke support ko dekh ke stop loss lagay karu aur apni equity dekh ke trade kiya karu..mere khayal se money management yahi sikhata hai ki equity aur support dekkh ke trading akrni chahaiye

[joget]

I use 25% to trade as well as tolerance for risk of loss, so if there is a floating minus almost close to 25% then I re-analyze the possibility of a reversal or not, if not then I have to give up those losses to close the position, or set up hedging positions if still in doubt, and put another entry position in the direction when the reversal is begin.

[anoha]

For me Anala gamble more than 5% of the capital ...
And sometimes, if circumstances compelled me to gamble only 7% even if you lose I can compensate for the loss
Not be large ...

[mita]

i think that 3% of capital is big risk on your capital at long time trader can lose all capital slowly , trader must have no fixed risk on the management mean change the lot size by changing the ballance.

[naziafarhan]

I normaly risk 2-3% of my account per trade. Cause I follow my money management rule very strictly and I love money management. Cause I know that how effecient a strategy is without money management it is nothing.

[silverfx]

actual a professional tradr will not use more than 3% risk.but i used big risk on last friday night and holding long position.i used 32% risk of balance in my volume and i am worrie about this bad mistakes.so lets see what happen with me.

[trader_jambi]

depending on how you dare to sacrifice your money. there are traders who make use of full lots in trading. some are only 10%. each trader has an individual individual trading style. but its not safe to the point of trading using a capacity greater than the ability of your trading capital.

[anoha]

For me will not venture more than 5% of the capital
In a few cases, increase to 7% if confirmed that the price will come back again at least to the point of entry and exit from the deal without profit ..
nothing more

[sabutkelaparasaduren]

I use a pretty big risk, because I feel confident with my analysis. on average, I use a 5-10% risk. but at certain moments when I was convinced by my analysis then I could just use a 40% risk of loss. even, sometimes i use 60% risk.


Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
FOREX RISK MANAGEMENT

Whats your risk % per trade?
Or should i say, what�s your risk appetite?
To be a successful forex trader. You will need to have a proper money management system.
It starts with identifying what level of risk % per trade will you risk.
As a guide, a safe and good risk percentage will be from 1% � 3%.
Anything higher than 3% will be relatively risky.
Why is this so.
If you understand, the forex market can do anything.
Even if you are sure this is the MOST perfect setup.
It MAY NOT end up the way you expected it to be.
Why?
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
First, you must understand that anything can happen in the forex market.
Just for example, even if it is the most perfect setup. If a major institution pumps in a large sum of money at that period of time. It can change the direction of the market for a short time frame.
And when the retail investors see the market moving in the direction stipulated by the major institution, they will then follow suit and enter the same way.
WHICH causes the movements in the market.
But of course, this doesn�t happen always.
What i�m saying is, anything can happen in the forex market.
So even if you are the best forex trader in the world. You will not have a 100% winning rate as well.
You will still lose as the market can do anything.
Which is why, it is not wise to have a high risk per trade.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if a trader risk 10% per trade.
And a series of unfortunate events happen to him, (maybe it�s a distraction, maybe there�s an earthquake etc)
As a result, he made a series of 5 losing trades.
He would have wipe of 50% +- of his trading capital because he risked 10% per trade.
And with just 50% left, it will be hard for him to make back his loss.
So if you see what i meant.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if you risk 2% per trade.
With a series of 5 losing trades. You would only lose 10%+- of your capital.
Which is not to bad.
With a good trading system, we can easily make back the money loss.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
But here comes the big question.
What is your risk appetite?
You see, there is absolutely no point into asking you to risk 1% per trade.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Capital $5000
Risk of 1% = $50 per trade.
If at the back of your mind, you do feel that $50 per trade is too little.
Then you will most likely find and trade even more trades that you usually should � in order to make more money. Right?
Therefore, the correct way to set your risk % per trade varies with different individuals.
You must ask yourself.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Will you be satisfied with
$50 per trade or
$100 per trade or
$150 per trade
based on the capital of $5000
Once you got an answer, you got your risk percentage.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
Remember,
1) Your risk percentage cannot be too high. As mention a good gauge is 1% � 3%.
2) Your risk percentage must meet your risk appetite. There is no point in risking 1% if you find the amount too little and does not satisfy your hunger.
So there you go.
Once you have set and decided on your risk % per trade.
STICK FIRMLY TO IT!
For example, in a series of trades. You cannot have eg. 1% on 5 trades, then 3% on 5 trades etc.
Because if you play it this way, and what if you make money on the 5 trades with 1% risked, and lose money on the 5 trades with 3% risked. (which usually happens!)
YOU WILL LOSE MONEY!
Therefore, stick firmly to the risk percentage per trade which you have set.
Eg. If you set 2% risk per trade.
From now on, every trade you take � You will risk 2% per trade.
NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS.
This way, you will be consistent and you are on the right track to success.

if I think it depends on each trader, I use the risk per trade of about 2-5%, it also depends on market conditions that support. if I do not trade too risky because there is still tomorrow.
good luck

[viky]

To have confidence in you, you must learn how to manage your risk management, and try before you enter a transaction to use a very small lot to confirm your entry, but you must first create a plan to do all those steps .. after you will avoid all risks and you will earn a good profit.

[gava]

As a guide a safe and good risk percentage will be from 1%-3%
anything higher than 3% will be relatively risky.ou must understand that anything can happen in forex market,

[forexman]

my risk per trade is 100% and that is reason why i get margincalls frequently and i should avoid that but sometimes if i close a position in loss and after i close it will move in my direction again and then also i feel losing prfoits so tahts why i wont accept losses and facing margincalls so i have to change this

[anubhavsingh]

depending on how you dare to sacrifice your money. there are traders who make use of full lots in trading. some are only 10%. each trader has an individual individual trading style. but its not safe to the point of trading using a capacity greater than the ability of your trading capital.

trader ke paas jitnmi zada equity hoti hai wo utna zada risk le sakta hai kyunki uske paas back up ke liye kafi acha paisa hota hai
chote traders ko market me bahut soch smajh ke trading karni chahaiye kyunki unke margin call lagne ke chances bahut hi zada hote ai jabki bade traders ko margin call bahut hi kam lagti hai

[sumonmia0526]

the risk are taken and decide upon equity ..suppose some times i m taking risk of 20% and most of the time i m taking 5% risk for just one trade ..but professional trade never do this ..the maximum risk may be per trade 1-2% .i m small investor so i m not following hte money management all time ..may be this is the only reason i m losing most of the time

[sumonmia0526]

with minimal risk of 2-5% as it is written you., about how much profit you get. whether each month,. ,, It looks like it's also good management.,,,

this is not good at all to take 2-5% risk just for one trade ..the best part of risking should be 1% for one trade .but when someone having huge equity they will risk more and more coz they having the back up money so they can recover any kind of loss in any time

[Tozammel]

Risk management is very very important in forex trading because this is a risky business. The profit or loss will be higher if the risk is high. On the other hand profit or loss will be lower if risk is lower. The risk will be within 0% to 5% or maximum 10%. Even larger banks take risk up to 5%. So it is best to minimize the risk.

FOREX RISK MANAGEMENT

Whats your risk % per trade?
Or should i say, what�s your risk appetite?
To be a successful forex trader. You will need to have a proper money management system.
It starts with identifying what level of risk % per trade will you risk.
As a guide, a safe and good risk percentage will be from 1% � 3%.
Anything higher than 3% will be relatively risky.
Why is this so.
If you understand, the forex market can do anything.
Even if you are sure this is the MOST perfect setup.
It MAY NOT end up the way you expected it to be.
Why?
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
First, you must understand that anything can happen in the forex market.
Just for example, even if it is the most perfect setup. If a major institution pumps in a large sum of money at that period of time. It can change the direction of the market for a short time frame.
And when the retail investors see the market moving in the direction stipulated by the major institution, they will then follow suit and enter the same way.
WHICH causes the movements in the market.
But of course, this doesn�t happen always.
What i�m saying is, anything can happen in the forex market.
So even if you are the best forex trader in the world. You will not have a 100% winning rate as well.
You will still lose as the market can do anything.
Which is why, it is not wise to have a high risk per trade.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if a trader risk 10% per trade.
And a series of unfortunate events happen to him, (maybe it�s a distraction, maybe there�s an earthquake etc)
As a result, he made a series of 5 losing trades.
He would have wipe of 50% +- of his trading capital because he risked 10% per trade.
And with just 50% left, it will be hard for him to make back his loss.

thank you my dear jo app ne itni achi post ham se share ki ha main khud es main kafi intrested houn kioun k mugh ko ab forex trading k hidden pata chal rahey hane es liye main es ko pori koshish kar raha houn seekhney ki

[fxquest]

Though it look worthy to use lower risk then reward but some time due to lower capital it is a waste of time to spend very little part of capital on a trade and at such time i think we should not stick to the hard and fast rule of using a fixed percentage of risk, though if having enough capital using lower risk will be wise.

[Morshedul]

I do not know the risk percentage per trade because i do not know how to calculate this. I think if i can calculate this, then the chances of my risks will be lowered than ever. Now i have suffered huge losses sometime which does not show good results in forex. I want to reduce the chance of getting loss. Please tell me if you know it.

[moti]

To have confidence in you, you must learn how to manage your risk management, and try before you enter a transaction to use a very small lot to confirm your entry, but you must first create a plan to do all those steps .. after you will avoid all risks and you will earn a good profit.

[sidhu]

i think that 3% of capital is big risk on your capital at long time trader can lose all capital slowly , trader must have no fixed risk on the management mean change the lot size by changing the ballance.

[sidhu]

i am using multi money management but i will tell you about that i am interesting for it in this time in this example if you have simple strategy give you 50% success and this is generally random strategy you make 1:1 ratio stop loss and take profit this mean you will get 50% prospect for each of them and you will get 50% amount to loss and win, if you change the lot size to double after you loss for 3 level you will get good result.

[vikalpverma]

if I think it depends on each trader, I use the risk per trade of about 2-5%, it also depends on market conditions that support. if I do not trade too risky because there is still tomorrow.
good luck :good:

2-5% ka risk percentage kjafi safe rehta hai
maine aise traders bhi dekhe hai jo ki stop loss hi nahi lagate kyunki unke pas equity itni zada hoti hai ki wo bade se bada loss sambhal lete hai jab tak wo deal profit me na a jaye
me to hamesha apni trading me stop loss lagata hon aur zada se zada 10% ka hi risk leta hin

[lovecurse]

my risk per trade is 100% and that is reason why i get margincalls frequently and i should avoid that but sometimes if i close a position in loss and after i close it will move in my direction again and then also i feel losing prfoits so tahts why i wont accept losses and facing margincalls so i have to change this

my friend that's risky much but i think that you are good trader because you are facing risk and that's sooo good advantage in forex trader , about me i cant do it or i will suffer preasure :) then i will die before i see my profits

[+8801711444442]

Well when I open a business with a lot of one and a capital of usd 100 usd I regulation 5 pips of profit and 10 pip stop loss so I negotiated with 10% of my capital, it is not very risky, but c is very advantage, but I advise you to make a good money management with making any trades.

[tiar]

Well when I open a business with a lot of one and a capital of usd 100 usd I regulation 5 pips of profit and 10 pip stop loss so I negotiated with 10% of my capital, it is not very risky, but c is very advantage, but I advise you to make a good money management with making any trades.

I think it's very risky. by using 10% of capital, capital means we only have a resistance 100 pips only. This strategy is very dangerous if we are OP in the European session and the pair of sharp price movements. unless we use it in the session sideway

[anoha]

For me I am in all transactions not risking more than 5% of the account despite the fact that my account is too small and a little profit with this risk, if confirmed, sometimes of a return to price again venture with 10% not more than that ...

[tiar]

i think i never make a goal in my trading,, but start tommorow i will make a target which i hope i can make 10% profit from my equity,
today i get margin call because i greedy, i hold open possition and at least i get margin call for the second time.:(

yes, it is very difficult to get a profit of 10% per day, even when using good money management, we will easily MC, because the target of 10% we should be trading aggressively, and this is very risky. This in my opinion, because I've been there

[marjuck]

my risk percentage is not always same. but my average risk percentage is 10 percent. sometimes i take the risk up to 50 percent when i will be over sure about my trade. small leverage with lower lot size is good for trade and it will keep the account in more safe place.

[tiar]

my risk percentage is not always same. but my average risk percentage is 10 percent. sometimes i take the risk up to 50 percent when i will be over sure about my trade. small leverage with lower lot size is good for trade and it will keep the account in more safe place.

indeed we should take the risk of only 10% of the amount of our capital, so that when we are wrong OP, we still have enough capital for the OP again. if we use a risk 50%, when we are wrong OP, then we soon run out of capital

[sidhu]

risks that should be taken by the trader is a risk that has been tailored to the strategies and systems used and in accordance with the money management of each trader's own so it will be able to produce good decisions and correct.

[vertext]

I find it very interesting facts and figures.
I think one should do his analysis before taking any decision of cashing out or investing.we should not take unreasonable and high risk, so better to go trading with reasonable stop loss that is at instant support or resistance and instant target and stick to that.

[fanesa G]

I use only 1- 2% risk of trade in every open position thats I make, this is really small, cause I do not want my account suffer a lot of loss in my trading and also I want to survive in this forex trading bussiness for long periods of time, so I use strictly money management.

[kuttus]

I use only 1- 2% risk of trade in every open position thats I make, this is really small, cause I do not want my account suffer a lot of loss in my trading and also I want to survive in this forex trading bussiness for long periods of time, so I use strictly money management.
Really spearing I don't even know that how to calculate the parentage I read in in a forex b log but I am not sure about that so can any one explane the whole thing clearly

[kuttus]

hazard organization is really a vital factor of winning forex trading. Actually it should be designed by the account size of a trader. It should be chosen shrewdly so that it can support the trader in unfavorable cases. For example, we can take 0.25 volume per order for $1000 asset. That means risk level is 0.025%/pip.

Please mikal as I said before I don't have a good idea about that Risk percentage I have a good Idea about the money management of a treading but I thing this is also an importance thing for treading so please mikal can you ex plane it

[rajib]

We must be cautious when entering into market of that magnitude percentage of risk is measured on the size of the account is it a small or medium or large and also measured the size of Pluto ,which will be accessed by the transaction .

[yaar]

I do trade using risk of 5% of my account. And desire a profit of 5% also. Sometimes my desire of profit increased to 10% but i never risk more then 5%.

[rajib]

we must be cautious when entering into the market of that magnitude percentage of risk is measured on the size account is it a small or medium or large and also measured the size of npluto ,which will be accessed by the transaction

[kalponick]

I want 20% to max 30% gain from my account.. because of my low capital I need to aim for higher return :p
this is why my daily target will be always not more than 1% to 3% perday..

[maurya]

I always take the risk of not more than 40% I think it is for me very much because I always had a habit of doubling the value of lots that are experiencing losses
then I can cover losses only through such strategies

[sspences88]

If at the back of your mind, you do feel that $50 per trade is too little.
Then you will most likely find and trade even more trades that you usually should � in order to make more money. Right?
Therefore, the correct way to set your risk % per trade varies with different individuals.
You must ask yourself.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Will you be satisfied with
$50 per trade or
$100 per trade or
$150 per trade
based on the capital of $5000
Once you got an answer, you got your risk percentage.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
Remember,
1) Your risk percentage cannot be too high. As mention a good gauge is 1% � 3%.
2) Your risk percentage must meet your risk appetite. There is no point in risking 1% if you find the amount too little and does not satisfy your hunger.
So there you go.
Once you have set and decided on your risk % per trade.
STICK FIRMLY TO IT!
For example, in a series of trades. You cannot have eg. 1% on 5 trades, then 3% on 5 trades etc.
Because if you play it this way, and what if you make money on the 5 trades with 1% risked, and lose money on the 5 trades with 3% risked. (which usually happens!)
YOU WILL LOSE MONEY!
Therefore, stick firmly to the risk percentage per trade which you have set.
Eg. If you set 2% risk per trade.
From now on, every trade you take � You will risk 2% per trade.
NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS.
This way, you will be consistent and you are on the right track to success.

hi
For percentage risk i have for trading is bout 1% until 20% from capital . but befire that we must learn about market condtion and make planing
to next step when trading. if in that day have a big risk we must just open 1% until 8% from your account


we face the real risk of any trade that we do in the forex market is the number of news to be released on a couple pair that we use as our place to trade, so we also should be able to customize every strategy that we run is as good as possible and stay focused at some positions that sometimes we are wrong to analyze

[mustafafx]

i usually take 1% to 3% market risk and it also depend on your balance also so i advised to do trade in insta broker becouse it is not spread too much

[jony]

i use 2 -4% risk during trading but some take more risk.i think money management is most important factor for those people and they gain profit but i also gain profit but my profit is less.

[nurhidayah]

i use 2 -4% risk during trading but some take more risk.i think money management is most important factor for those people and they gain profit but i also gain profit but my profit is less.

profits are not so good we get this usually leads to more things that make our trading position is less convincing, with a percentage so small as possible to secure funds from the margin call is the best way for us to be able to make a profit commensurate with the strategy that we run

[Nganti]

now, in my trade i just use 2% from my balance to make trading, i think that is very save from margin call, no matter our profit just small, but allways continously, that more better than have big profit but fast in Margin Call.

FOREX RISK MANAGEMENT

Whats your risk % per trade?
Or should i say, what�s your risk appetite?
To be a successful forex trader. You will need to have a proper money management system.
It starts with identifying what level of risk % per trade will you risk.
As a guide, a safe and good risk percentage will be from 1% � 3%.
Anything higher than 3% will be relatively risky.
Why is this so.
If you understand, the forex market can do anything.
Even if you are sure this is the MOST perfect setup.
It MAY NOT end up the way you expected it to be.
Why?
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
First, you must understand that anything can happen in the forex market.
Just for example, even if it is the most perfect setup. If a major institution pumps in a large sum of money at that period of time. It can change the direction of the market for a short time frame.
And when the retail investors see the market moving in the direction stipulated by the major institution, they will then follow suit and enter the same way.
WHICH causes the movements in the market.
But of course, this doesn�t happen always.
What i�m saying is, anything can happen in the forex market.
So even if you are the best forex trader in the world. You will not have a 100% winning rate as well.
You will still lose as the market can do anything.
Which is why, it is not wise to have a high risk per trade.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if a trader risk 10% per trade.
And a series of unfortunate events happen to him, (maybe it�s a distraction, maybe there�s an earthquake etc)
As a result, he made a series of 5 losing trades.
He would have wipe of 50% +- of his trading capital because he risked 10% per trade.
And with just 50% left, it will be hard for him to make back his loss.
So if you see what i meant.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if you risk 2% per trade.
With a series of 5 losing trades. You would only lose 10%+- of your capital.
Which is not to bad.
With a good trading system, we can easily make back the money loss.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
But here comes the big question.
What is your risk appetite?

The market has been vary risk by 2.5 %.there in many behind money management.I use the risk par trade.so i understand Forex trading is vary diskable business..thanks

[kaji]

My risk percentage is 1% normally .I think it is best . But sometimes I take 2%-3% risk . As my opinion low risk(1%) is comfortable for trading . 3% risk make a big pressure . Trading with comfort it is profitable .

I can loss 3 times by taking 3% risk and I profit more times by taking 1% risk .
I saw it was a good risk management. but how to run your management strategy so that you can limit the risk of a maximum of 3% in any trading...? Please explain your strategi. thanks....

[bourman]

I usually use 2% risk and reward at 2.5-3%. To avoid Margin Call, I prefer not to open another position until the previous position being closed. Sometimes profit, sometimes loss. Well, I think thats forex world. :)

may jo hai sometime enter karta hun market may tu 3% jo hai woh risk karta hun capital may yah jo percentage hai woh jo hai bohut he kaam hota hai jo used account may hota hai

[budado]

I just use 2% per trade but since I'm doing hedging I can increase my trade many times more. Problem with hedging though is that how you going to breakout with this strategy. As the more you trade the more you also open opposite position and what happen if you going to get many opposite position? Then you get lock and once its happen you really need to take risk in order to earn.

[md satu]

what your rick % per trade?
or should i say ,what is your sick appetite.
to be a successful Forex trader. you will need to have a proper money management system

[samo]

I only risk 5% per trade because I am still learning, I think it is a safe risk because I have to lose 20 times before I get margin call. but it is hard to lose that many times especially when you have a good strategy. but smaller is advisable for beginners.

[dmambi]

Since i am for long term trading and don't want to loose my capital at any cost, i trade with 2 to 5% risk per trade. I believe in leave today and fight tomorrow policy and hence always trade with small lot orders only no matter how big the opportunity exists for me.

[sazzad]

I prefer to use 2% risk management maximum because in micro account normally we deposit low investment then we have to protect our account balance, i think trader can take maximum 4% risk management.

[Nganti]

Since i am for long term trading and don't want to loose my capital at any cost, i trade with 2 to 5% risk per trade. I believe in leave today and fight tomorrow policy and hence always trade with small lot orders only no matter how big the opportunity exists for me.
same with me sir, now i just use small of my capital to open trade. just use 5% only, and allways using cut loss if my prediction out of from the market. i know that forex is very risk, so must have of good Money management .

[omofx]

my risk per trade is 2% i dont risk anything more than that on a trade , money management is what is making me a successful trader not my strategy or my indicator

[william88]

I usually only open 1 trade,and for it i set my stop loss to max 3% from my capital..I think it is good enough..

[3mala]

In my live trades, I risk usually 50% of my margin. This is because I consider my capital to be small. Now I intend to reduce my risk percentage per trade to 20%. It will be easier to earn nice profits and at the same time have some capital left if the trade goes bad.

[3mala]

forex me mera risk percentage kabhi bhi fix nahi hota kyunki me apna risk percentage hamesha pair ke hisab se aur uske support aur resistence ke hisab se hi set karta hon
kayi baar mear risk percebtage 5% hota hai kabhi 10% hota hai kabhi 4 % hota hai to kabhui 12 % hota hau..ye sba market pe depend karta hai ki me kab kausne [pair me trading kar raha hon

[Sri Hartono]

I usually do to measure the loss in trading is how many pips each possible price movement reversed and then I saw how much resistance I have pips, pips from resistance that we have normally I would use about 1% for stop loss.

[aamu]

Though it look worthy to use lower risk then reward but some time due to lower capital it is a waste of time to spend very little part of capital on a trade and at such time i think we should not stick to the hard and fast rule of using a fixed percentage of risk, though if having enough capital using lower risk will be wise.

[deep]

trader ke paas jitnmi zada equity hoti hai wo utna zada risk le sakta hai kyunki uske paas back up ke liye kafi acha paisa hota hai
chote traders ko market me bahut soch smajh ke trading karni chahaiye kyunki unke margin call lagne ke chances bahut hi zada hote ai jabki bade traders ko margin call bahut hi kam lagti hai

[spread]

If we do not use risk management and not to use stoploss a bad thing I think every trader has different risk management, I usually start trade with risk management of each transaction is 3% of capital

[100 to 1,000]

my risk per trade is 2% i dont risk anything more than that on a trade , money management is what is making me a successful trader not my strategy or my indicator

i also used to risk 2% per trade but then i got scared because when consecutive losses happen i often lose 3 to 4 times in a row and sometimes even 5 times in a row and it made me frustrated.
that is why i now lowered my risk per trade to just 1% to protect my capital and also to protect my emotion.
i am much happier today than ever...

however, if your trading strategy is good then it's up to you how much you want to risk per trade...

[Hiron]

Good trader should have good risk management. Because at first you sustain account controlling risk.
I take 2% risk where balance $100.

[barn]

I rarely analyze what percentage of my losses, because I am currently still using scalping system. and trading whenever there is a signal to buy or sell.

[kunal ranjan]

risk percentage vary for new ones and experienced the risk for newbie is more as they have less knowledge about trading.

[aamu]

meri trade ka risk percentage fix nahi hota kyunki me hamesha apna stop loss market ke support aur resistance ke hisba se set karta hon..mujhe lagta hai ki market ke support aur resistance kabhi fix nahi hote is wajah se mera stop loss bhi fix nahi hai

[100 to 1,000]

if you use small risk per trade you can stay longer in the market while sustaining big damages from big drawdown and also you will worry less.
high risk often leads to margin call and it is not easy to deal with the emotional aspect when we get margin call.
but everyone should use the risk level that is suitable for them because this is the best way.

[100 to 1,000]

i read people using too huge of a lot size like 10% risk per trade and they said they can make money using this method.
this makes me wondering is using high lot size also a viable trading method or it was just a luck on their part?

[mojan]

Everyone who is a trader knows it the risk percentage of loosing in forex is always fifty fifty but to good trader this may not always upply the risk may be ten ,twenty or even thirty depending with an individual.and how his or target are presented himself.

[Xasir]

Equity risks are being taken to decide .. Setting a set of a 20% risk of IM and the IM to be in a single operation by a 5% chance often .. no professional or trade, but .. 1-2% maximum risk per trade. im small investors, so im not always follow the money management hte .. maybe this is the only reason I'm losing most of the time

[darksaimon]

the risk direction is truly a alive factor of thriving Forex trading. Actually it should be deliberate by the reason size of a monger. It should be elite sagely so that it can agree the dealer in unfavorable cases

[syedraza]

Risk of not less than 4%, 2% target bonus, if I think this is the best way. Reseller is in fact followed the rules of money management. Then you will be very successful. Our main problem is greed. Sufficient capital for us one day in some cases a double.

[ashwini]

am taking 30% of capital for order. and 30 pips as stoploss. that means 10% risk of capital. so its my risk percnetage per trade. but i have the do only one trade per day. now a days. am try to weekly one trade.. so my take profit target will be increase and also my stoploss. with this.. may be i take small order. but take 10% risk of my capital.

[100 to 1,000]

i'm reading something new and it said that the risk per trade must also follow the level where the technical analysis level is.
so if the trading strategy that i use dictate that the SL should be 27 then it means i will have to risk 27 pips.
this makes my risk per trade different for every trade.

[budado]

I only trade 2% of my total funds and my loss tolerance is 15 pips and my profit tolerance is 15 pips also. Meaning if I have 30 pips profit I put 15 pips as my exit. I'm happy that I'm earning so far using this strategy. I don't really earn much in forex but some how I'm earning and for me that is good sign. Because its only shows that I'm preventing myself in losing money in forex trading.

[nurivasyarifah]

I use a calculation that I have programmed in Excel, so every day I have a target and if not according to plan then I'll replace it when the other day .. I prefer to use 3% and not more than that because if the market is not supporting it will be harmful to our investments

[karbak]

I trade in one direction often and so i keep adding trades as i see better prices this was not possible if i spent big portion of my equity on a single trade and so yeh i try to spend 2-5% only on one trade, whenever i spent higher i got into losses faster, even blown my account.

[mukta]

You use risk for your per trade 2%-5% of your equity or balance.I mean you use minimum 2% and maximum 5% of your total balance.I think this is suitable for everyone.If you use this rules than you gain your total trade.

[Forex]

I always use a percentage of the maximum loss was 3%, due to the risk of 3% then it will have many opportunities to be trading on the next deal, if you use a risk of 10% then it would be very risky to spend your money. unless you are able to generate profits consistently.

[5starsabuj]

Forex is an international business trading system in here a lot of people in different country of the world invest a big amount of money invest here . So here is present a lot amount of risk if a trader can not operate this business properly. But i think that if he know about this properly and know about risk management properly he can reduice hid risk and can take profit properly. Even if he face with risk to take profit he can take small risk it may be maximum at 5% .So every body should be care about it.

I use maximum 10 % of my total equity and Minimum 2% of my equity.But 2% to 5 % is reliable.I take much risk maximum time because i am a aggressive trader.

[zahed11]

I am a new operator. Many operators are used are not all the stop loss. Who is going to change for a long time need to use stop-loss. I also added a stop-loss total is used to manage risk. I use the 2% risk.

[maulana]

I use maximum 5 % of my total equity and Minimum 2% of my equity... i sometimes take much risk maximum time if my strategy give strong signal...
but, nowadays i am a full time forex trader... i want not take any risk in my business... i want to take minimum risk and high reward in forex market...
i recommend for use only maximum 5% of total equty per trade... happy profit...

Yes, I've heard from the professionals, so that risk is set up as many as 3%. Thus we will be able to trade safely. But, since I still use a small deposit, I took a pretty big risk, 10-20%, and I'm not too disappointed if it ends later loss.

First, you must understand that anything can happen in the forex market.
Just for example, even if it is the most perfect setup. If a major institution pumps in a large sum of money at that period of time. It can change the direction of the market for a short time frame.
And when the retail investors see the market moving in the direction stipulated by the major institution, they will then follow suit and enter the same way.
WHICH causes the movements in the market.
But of course, this doesn�t happen always.
What i�m saying is, anything can happen in the forex market.
So even if you are the best forex trader in the world. You will not have a 100% winning rate as well.
You will still lose as the market can do anything.
Which is why, it is not wise to have a high risk per trade.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if a trader risk 10% per trade.
And a series of unfortunate events happen to him, (maybe it�s a distraction, maybe there�s an earthquake etc)
As a result, he made a series of 5 losing trades.
He would have wipe of 50% +- of his trading capital because he risked 10% per trade.
And with just 50% left, it will be hard for him to make back his loss.
So if you see what i meant.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if you risk 2% per trade.
With a series of 5 losing trades. You would only lose 10%+- of your capital.
Which is not to bad.
With a good trading system, we can easily make back the money loss.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
But here comes the big question.
What is your risk appetite?
You see, there is absolutely no point into asking you to risk 1% per trade.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Capital $5000
Risk of 1% = $50 per trade.
If at the back of your mind, you do feel that $50 per trade is too little.
Then you will most likely find and trade even more trades that you usually should � in order to make more money. Right?
Therefore, the correct way to set your risk % per trade varies with different individuals.
You must ask yourself.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Will you be satisfied with
$50 per trade or
$100 per trade or
$150 per trade
based on the capital of $5000
Once you got an answer, you got your risk percentage.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
Remember,
1) Your risk percentage cannot be too high. As mention a good gauge is 1% � 3%.
2) Your risk percentage must meet your risk appetite. There is no point in risking 1% if you find the amount too little and does not satisfy your hunger.
So there you go.
Once you have set and decided on your risk % per trade.
STICK FIRMLY TO IT!
For example, in a series of trades. You cannot have eg. 1% on 5 trades, then 3% on 5 trades etc.
Because if you play it this way, and what if you make money on the 5 trades with 1% risked, and lose money on the 5 trades with 3% risked. (which usually happens!)
YOU WILL LOSE MONEY!
Therefore, stick firmly to the risk percentage per trade which you have set.
Eg. If you set 2% risk per trade.
From now on, every trade you take � You will risk 2% per trade.
NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS.
This way, you will be consistent and you are on the right track to success.

FOREX RISK MANAGEMENT

Whats your risk % per trade?
Or should i say, what�s your risk appetite?
To be a successful forex trader. You will need to have a proper money management system.
It starts with identifying what level of risk % per trade will you risk.
As a guide, a safe and good risk percentage will be from 1% � 3%.
Anything higher than 3% will be relatively risky.
Why is this so.
If you understand, the forex market can do anything.
Even if you are sure this is the MOST perfect setup.
It MAY NOT end up the way you expected it to be.

mara kahla sa to har trader ko 50 ,50 % risk hota ha trading main ya to profit earned ho ta ha or ya phar loss earened hota ha esi waja sa too trading main boht zada loss be hota ha or profit be hota ha.

[abdillahikbal]

Use Low risk by 5% from the account
But I sometimes venture to a very large up to 35%.It happens generally when the market is in a certain pace....
But we must be cautious when entering into the market of that magnitude Percentage of risk is measured on the size of the account is it a small or medium or large, and also measured the size of Pluto, which will be accessed by the transaction

Well this again is inconsistent strategies used to get the pip, tend to be very difficult to transform and followed by the novice trader, that can be cultivated using that can be understood by a novice trader sir, thank you

[njoroge5]

I usually risk 10% these way I can let a trade manuver as far and as very fast as posible without risking much of my account, because when you start trading you usually lose a lot when you are unable to detect where the market is heading to, and you should be very careful where you put your money.

[njoroge5]

i try to make very very slow profits due to the fact that i do not want to run myself and my account into any kind of troubles and i am able to use the 4Hours charts and the support and resistance method for opening a position.

there shouldnt be any trouble trading the 4hrs chart. its basicaly vey simple but you should be really careful with how you trade it because you will have a lot of bad trades and losses to avoid these, make sure your entry poinds are the exact and avoid a lot of trades,som any trades can ruin you.

[purohit]

Though it look worthy to use lower risk then reward but some time due to lower capital it is a waste of time to spend very little part of capital on a trade and at such time i think we should not stick to the hard and fast rule of using a fixed percentage of risk, though if having enough capital using lower risk will be wise.

[tanvir1979]

dear silverfax. thanks a lot for your kind comments. I am a beginner in Forex. Would you please kindly let me know as first time trader the range of risk level should be taken by me.

[kazamonsif]

There is also the truth behind the management of fortunes, is possible to you follow follow the millimeter as at the top. But, do not try to fix the monthly target. The state of the market is not even of the whole. If you fix the target, then you will try to work for length. His(her,its) best in the copup with the market.

[100 to 1,000]

sometimes i use high risk percentage per trade because the situation is good (the market is active and volatile).
but sometimes i use low risk percentage per trade because the situation is too dangerous.
so for me it really depend on the situation.

[Warrior-FX]

It is always better not to risk more than 3% of your account balance.

Most of the people who are successful in forex trading uses low risk percentage.

Some might risk more than 3% because of lack of experience.

I also risked more than 3% when I was new to the subject.

But with the experience I understood that it is the main reason for my downfall.

[adeusi]

At most you should not risk more one tent of your money.so that you will able to trade with the remaining next time peradventure trade goes negative.

[saiful]

We can take 0.15 volume per order for $500 investment. That means risk level is 0.015%/pip. So I have no risk in trade.

[executor]

alright i got your analysis and as for me i think the very best risk management i can always risk in my trading is just 3 percent because with 3 percent i can always trade with my mind at rest and never trade with emotion so i think 3 percent is a very good risk management we can always think about, best of luck as we trade

Yes, by taking the risk of 3 percent, we will not be burdened with sorrow. We still have a capital of 97% if we suffer a loss of 3%, the amount of risk that still can be easily replaced tomorrow or the next day. 3 percent of risk is applied in a disciplined only by the rational trader.

[kanta]

My risk percentage is ten percent per trade. Because my capital is very small and i want to grow it faster -which allure me to take the risk. I wont say that every time i succeed but i am a net gainer .

[be-lazy_think-crazy]

Now I am improving my lot sizes a little bit than the past time. This is because of recuperating the previous minuses again. I think Let me go for the previous situation very soon.

I tolerate the risk of loss a day at most 5% of total capital. Within a week I make a composition: 5 x trading - 2 x 5% + 3 x 5% (profit). With mental readiness, I was routinely getting 30-100% profit per week.

I think you are pretty good MM. it helps us to target MM based on pips prisoners so that we are not hasty in taking back the transaction, if such prisoners are limited, do not open the position again so we will be more secure capital.

[GeniusInv]

my risk percentage is not always the same. but my average risk percentage is 10 percent. sometimes i take the risk up to 50 percent when i will be over sure about my trade. small leverage with lower lot size is good for trading and it will keep the account in more safe place.

I would not recommend it for students reason it is a risky one and you need to be updated about the currency and should be ready to risk at times or never play with emotions. As a student, I do not think it is really wise to invest in forex or any sort of exchange trading because they would surely lack the experience and if they are really in, then forums like indian - forex can really have them trade with profit

The more you risk the more you can expect to earn, but in expectation of big earning we should not take unreasonable and high risk, so better to go trading with reasonable stop loss that is at instant support or resistance and instant target and stick to that.

indeed sir, I agree with you that in our trading business run better we are not a big ambition to be able to get great results with short periods of time. because the steps are very risky. we better get a reasonable result but can be smoothly and with very little risk.

[100 to 1,000]

my risk percentage per trade is very small compared to the expert traders on this forum who risk 5% or even up to 20%.
i only risk 1% or 2% per trade because my trading experience is still very young so i don't dare to risk too much.
if using big risk i will use small account.

FOREX RISK MANAGEMENT

Whats your risk % per trade?
Or should i say, what�s your risk appetite?
To be a successful forex trader. You will need to have a proper money management system.
It starts with identifying what level of risk % per trade will you risk.
As a guide, a safe and good risk percentage will be from 1% � 3%.
Anything higher than 3% will be relatively risky.
Why is this so.
If you understand, the forex market can do anything.
Even if you are sure this is the MOST perfect setup.
It MAY NOT end up the way you expected it to be.
Why?
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
First, you must understand that anything can happen in the forex market.
Just for example, even if it is the most perfect setup. If a major institution pumps in a large sum of money at that period of time. It can change the direction of the market for a short time frame.
And when the retail investors see the market moving in the direction stipulated by the major institution, they will then follow suit and enter the same way.
WHICH causes the movements in the market.
But of course, this doesn�t happen always.
What i�m saying is, anything can happen in the forex market.
So even if you are the best forex trader in the world. You will not have a 100% winning rate as well.
You will still lose as the market can do anything.
Which is why, it is not wise to have a high risk per trade.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if a trader risk 10% per trade.
And a series of unfortunate events happen to him, (maybe it�s a distraction, maybe there�s an earthquake etc)
As a result, he made a series of 5 losing trades.
He would have wipe of 50% +- of his trading capital because he risked 10% per trade.
And with just 50% left, it will be hard for him to make back his loss.
So if you see what i meant.
Forex Risk Management � For example, if you risk 2% per trade.
With a series of 5 losing trades. You would only lose 10%+- of your capital.
Which is not to bad.
With a good trading system, we can easily make back the money loss.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
But here comes the big question.
What is your risk appetite?
You see, there is absolutely no point into asking you to risk 1% per trade.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Capital $5000
Risk of 1% = $50 per trade.
If at the back of your mind, you do feel that $50 per trade is too little.
Then you will most likely find and trade even more trades that you usually should � in order to make more money. Right?
Therefore, the correct way to set your risk % per trade varies with different individuals.
You must ask yourself.
Forex Risk Management � Eg. Will you be satisfied with
$50 per trade or
$100 per trade or
$150 per trade
based on the capital of $5000
Once you got an answer, you got your risk percentage.
Forex Risk Management � Whats your Risk % per trade?

Forex Risk Management
Remember,
1) Your risk percentage cannot be too high. As mention a good gauge is 1% � 3%.
2) Your risk percentage must meet your risk appetite. There is no point in risking 1% if you find the amount too little and does not satisfy your hunger.
So there you go.
Once you have set and decided on your risk % per trade.
STICK FIRMLY TO IT!
For example, in a series of trades. You cannot have eg. 1% on 5 trades, then 3% on 5 trades etc.
Because if you play it this way, and what if you make money on the 5 trades with 1% risked, and lose money on the 5 trades with 3% risked. (which usually happens!)
YOU WILL LOSE MONEY!
Therefore, stick firmly to the risk percentage per trade which you have set.
Eg. If you set 2% risk per trade.
From now on, every trade you take � You will risk 2% per trade.
NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS.
This way, you will be consistent and you are on the right track to success.

with minimal risk of 2-5% as it is written you., about how much profit you get. whether each month,. ,, It looks like it's also good management.,,

[taufiqbd]

I always target to make 5% profit in every trade and sacrifice loss in 2% because If I made 20 trade in month then I loss 10 trade that means I loss 20% and make win 10 trade make 50% profit and now my total profit is 30% in end of the month.

[goldenmember]

I have to admit that I do not use a risk percentage because I did not use to use stop loss. I thought that trades would come back and go into profit. But now I am reading here I am learning that it is not the best thing to do. I shall promise to use risk/reward now.

[anish]

At first i would like to thank you for making a nice post on money management that is a key factor for a forex trader to save his or her account .Actually i am a crazy trader and always take high risk like 10 to 15 percent of my capital whatever my account balance and most of the time i get success following my trading strategy.

[computers]

In my live trades, I risk usually 50% of my margin. This is because I consider my capital to be small. Now I intend to reduce my risk percentage per trade to 20%. It will be easier to earn nice profits and at the same time have some capita

[fizmhd]

i use the lowest risk possible ..and increase the % of risk ..according to the capital i have ...
it keeps me safe .and my money too

[nurivasyarifah]

if no news is very influential in the movement of the market then I feel there is no risk when I go because I was always trading markets path and is almost always safe to touch the green line is always

[jahangir2812]

My own possibility percentage each investor is usually 1to2%. Currency trading is incredibly risky caused by leverages accessible having quite less overall it is possible to gain additional or even there could possibly be an enormous losses as well. Currency trading possesses a lot of personal frictions.

[deepak]

trader ke paas jitnmi zada equity hoti hai wo utna zada risk le sakta hai kyunki uske paas back up ke liye kafi acha paisa hota hai
chote traders ko market me bahut soch smajh ke trading karni chahaiye kyunki unke margin call lagne ke chances bahut hi zada hote ai jabki bade traders ko margin call bahut hi kam lagti hai

[shankar_saha]

hi, please settle for this truth. there's additionally truth behind cash management, you'll follow any follow mm like higher than. but , dont try and fix monthly target. market condition isn't same in any respect. if you fix target, then you may try and work for long. its higher to copup with market.

[budado]

I only use 2% mostly. But since now I have 25 open buy position that means I loss about 75% of my capital already and I only have 25% free margin left. I know I make a wrong move by doing averaging and I know I make a wrong move by trading emotionally. I just feel that I want to earn some small pips that I earn up getting bigger loses pips. I'm hoping that in few days eur/usd will going to recover because this is the only way to earn back my loses.

[sgiant]

I often use up to 20% risk level, is still safe and happy with the benefits I get. High risk but also higher profits, provided that good at analyzing.

hello my friends I made ​​a calculation on excel programming, I prefer to use 10% and not more than that because if the market is that it will not support our investments in risky

[ishvara]

It is quite important that a forex trader should know that they should risk a small percentage of their trading accounts per trade in forex trading. This helps them to apply a good MM policy in their trades.

[wahidgandaf]

For me I do trade using risk of the 5% of my account and not desire a profit of 5% also and sometimes my desire of profits increased to 10% but i never risk more then 5% really !!

[mahmudi]

Management risk is very important for us to apply and we in the forex market because it is bound by a time when prices will come back at all even if we use a 50% risk, we think it is very difficult to be completely consistent and generate profits that continue to occur

[kubi]

mere khial se bhhi equity bari ehmiat ki hamil hai jitni zyada equity ho gi utni hi zyda risk taking stratgy barhe gi me to zyda tr 5% se le kr 10% tk hi risk leta hun q k mera capital itna zyda nhi hai.

---------- Post added 07-16-2012 at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was 07-15-2012 at 12:40 PM ----------

meri her trade per mere risk ratito taqreeban 5 to 10% hoti hai.mujhe loss bhi hota hai pr loss ki nisbat profit earnig kuch better hai .lekin risk ke bagair raha bhi nahi jata.

[pbelim]

it is a real loss suffered when the market does opposite direction and through the SL. It's just a matter of willingness alone, for how much loss. I myself also willing at any time losses reaching 30 percent. I often profit him above the target.

[lap]

trader ke paas jitnmi zada equity hoti hai wo utna zada risk le sakta hai kyunki uske paas back up ke liye kafi acha paisa hota hai
chote traders ko market me bahut soch smajh ke trading karni chahaiye kyunki unke margin call lagne ke chances bahut hi zada hote ai jabki bade traders ko margin call bahut hi kam lagti hai

[dhiraj]

me aise fix percentage rakhne me bharosa nahi rakhta..me to hamehsa yahi koshish karta hon ki market ke support ko dekh ke stop loss lagay karu aur apni equity dekh ke trade kiya karu..mere khayal se money management yahi sikhata hai ki equity aur support dekkh ke trading akrni chahaiye

[vbalan]

In my live trades, I risk usually 50% of my margin. This is because I consider my capital to be small. Now I intend to reduce my risk percentage per trade to 20%. It will be easier to earn nice profits and at the same time have some capita

[kazaforex]

Hi

Just to be clear that I was not going to recommend "INTEGRATED" - I just used an extreme example of trying to support a point.

My idea was that the risk of 2% per trade rule was extracted from traders who generally occupy positions in several markets simultaneously, and therefore often a greater risk of their net equity of 2%. Try to apply this rule to the negotiation of a market is wrong.

Risk management is a personal thing anyway, then you are quite right to say "I do not want to put myself in that situation." You must trade within your comfortable limits, as we all are.

[anik01]

Risk of percentage per trade is 1% - 2%. Forex trading is very risky due to leverages available with very less money you can gain more or there may be a big losses as well. Forex trading has many financial frictions.

[sharabela]

I do not actually keep any percentage. What I do instead, I keep my volume low like I have an investment of 1000 dollar and I have been trading with .05 lot, at very rare case I trade with .10 lot. Some of my trades go up to 200 dollar loss, but I do not close them. I keep them until they come and give me some profit.

[sammypt]

i use 2% per trade Stop loss , the profit a trie allways to lock profit at 10 pip , and trail it at 15

[mojcris]

I usually use 3 to 5 percent of my capital amount for stop loss and about twice for my take profit limit, sometimes when I am losing all the money I try to remove this limits and risk all the money left for me :) that's the risk ;)

[jamalsale]

actual a professional tradr will not use more than 3% risk.but i used big risk on last friday night and holding long position.i used 32% risk of balance in my volume and i am worrie about this bad mistakes.so lets see what happen with me.

[ahmedi]

actual a professional tradr will not use more than 3% risk.but i used big risk on last friday night and holding long position.i used 32% risk of balance in my volume and i am worrie about this bad mistakes.so lets see what happen with me.
I can attribute my profits to good money management. As yet, my skills are still rather infantile but I can see conclusive proof that true success only results from an efficient money management skill. On trde when it is in good timing, this gives more on better deal to reassure and profit maker

[leherchand]

I take 2 to 4% risk per trade in the Forex market because i follow the risk management of my account balance, for this reason i do not take more risk i this market.because this is very risky.

[alamFX]

Risk per trade in percentage? Whats your take on that? Personally , i had a biggest draw down around 7% which is kinda big for me..

[leherchand]

I take 2 to 4% risk per trade in the Forex market because i follow the risk management of my account balance, for this reason i do not take more risk i this market.because this is very risky.

[opportunitytrader]

i additionally accustomed to risk 2% per trade however i acquired scared because when consecutive deficits happen i frequently lose three or four occasions consecutively or even 5 occasions consecutively also it helped me frustrated.

that's why now i decreased my risk per trade to simply 1% to safeguard my capital also to safeguard my emotion.

i'm much more happy today than ever before...

however, in case your buying and selling technique is good then the choice is yours just how much you need to risk per trade...

[vbalan]

[norix]

;730654']Yes but according my experience, you should know your limits as a Forex trader. It mean you must have to be aware of your knowledge about the market movements. Because you will be entering any trade on the basis of that knowledge

yes we need to know and understanding in this trade, when it started trading we must always look at why the price will go from there is where our job to take advantage of either a little or a lot of clubs have been pleased to be able to profit

i sometimes enter the market by 3% of risk capital this percentage is very small and used in the accounts of small micro enter the times but 30% sure if the access point and a successful deal....

[jennilyn]

I risk not higher than 2% of my capital on my demo account. I'll still use this percentage when I start trading with a real trading account to lessen the risk I'm taking on every trade.

[100 to 1,000]

I risk not higher than 2% of my capital on my demo account. I'll still use this percentage when I start trading with a real trading account to lessen the risk I'm taking on every trade.

from what i read from this thread and this forum most of the traders are using either 1% per trade or 2% per trade.
and some other traders use 5% to 10% per trade. i think it really shows the personality of the trader who is aggressive and who
is moderate risk taker.

I am trading with risk of 3% of my account balance. and i hope i will get profit 3% too.
I prefer not open position again until the previous position being closed. its to avoid margin call.

I like to risk only 0.5% to 1% in per trade.. So that at least I can trade 100 trades with my capital.. I know that the ratio is higher.. but with small capital I need to risk big to make any significant profit.. and I know that the more I can remain alive on this market the more chance I will get to make profit or even come back to the previous position after making huge losses..

Percentage of risk is measured on the size of the account.It depend on your own is a big risk or small.I'm use to risk of 5% and earnings by 8% to 10%. I am negotiating with a small amount.

Risk management is really a vital factor of successful forex trading. Actually it should be calculated by the account size of a trader. It should be chosen wisely so that it can support the trader in adverse cases. For example, we can take 0.25 volume per order for $1000 investment. That means risk level is 0.025%/pip. But it will be effective only if we use SL. It would then counted by the pips quantity.
