trading lesson 1
risk reward R:R
every trade you take has two numbers
how much you lose if you are wrong, this is your risk
how much you make if you are right, this is your reward
if you risk 100 to make 250, your ratio is 1 to 2.5
if you risk 250 to make 100, your ratio is 2.5 to 1 and you will go broke
good traders generally take 1 to 2.5 or better
they can be wrong more than half the time and still make money.
you dont need bigger trades to be profitable, you need consistent trades
keep your risk fixed at $100 per trade
lose one, down $100
lose another, down $200
win one at 1 to 2.5, up $50 overall
thats a %33 win rate and you are already green
fixed risk + positive expectancy = a profitable trader
when your account grows, your risk grows with it, not before
the rule, risk %1 to %2 of your total portfolio per trade (depends on your experience)
5k account, $50 to $100 risk
10k account, $100 to $200 risk
risk %10 per trade and 10 losses in a row wipes you out (i generally do this on my degen acc. or in competition like @FlashTrade)
risk %1 and you can be wrong 20 times and still in the game (you already learned and have a chance to come back)
now here is the part most people get completely wrong
you do not pick a random trade and say i can lose $100 on this one
you build the setup first, mark your entry, mark your stop, mark your target
then you size the position so that if price hits your stop, you lose exactly $100
your size adapts to your stop, not the other way around
tight stop means bigger position for the same 100 risk
wide stop means smaller position
the risk stays constant, the size changes
you dont take every trade that comes your way, you only take the ones where you can size properly for 100 risk and still hit 1 to 2.5 or better
not every trade gets the same risk either
leveraged short term trades, 100 fixed, always
long term spot buys where you actually believe in the asset, risk can go up to 1000 because you plan to hold and DCA on drawdowns
high conviction setups where you know the thesis cold, 300 to 500 with DCA but this only works if it is rare
if you treat every trade like your best idea, if you throw conviction size at every setup, you go to zero
conviction is earned per trade, not applied to every trade
(i used a $10,000 account risking 1% per trade as the example, so the risk amount is $100 throughout. adjust the numbers to match your own account size and risk %.)
the goal isnt to make money fast, its to stay alive long enough for the math to work in your favor

Sevgili Mauro,
Bugün ayrılıktan değil, mirastan söz ediyoruz.
Artık Galatasaray formasını giymiyor olman, kalbimizdeki yerini değiştirmeyecek. Çünkü sen, 7’den 70’e her Galatasaraylının gönlünde taht kurdun.
Attığın goller, yaşadığın gol krallıkları, kırdığın rekorlar ve kaldırdığın kupalar bir yana; Galatasaray tutkusunu yaşadın ve milyonlara yaşattın.
Sen artık yalnızca kulüp tarihine adını altın harflerle yazdıran değil, Galatasaray’ın unutulmaz efsaneleri arasında sonsuza dek yaşayacak bir değersin.
Bir nesli Galatasaraylı yapan sevgili kaptan, bugün çocuklar “Galatasaraylıyım.” demekten gurur duyuyorsa bunda senin de büyük payın var.
Tüm Galatasaraylılar biliyor…
Böyle bir aşk unutulmaz.
