Traders are “risk managers” first and foremost, so before you start trading real money you should be able to do basic position size calculations in your sleep… or at least after you wake up, still groggy, and try to trade the NFP report!
Finding the position size that will keep you within your risk comfort level is relatively easy…and we use the phrase “relatively easy” loosely here. Besides, if Pipcrawler, who can’t tell his pinkies from his toes, can do it, then you can too!
