Two Crucial Skills to Trade Volatile Markets.(Must-Read)
|
Dear Traders, I hope you have recharged and enjoyed your weekend. As geopolitical conflicts continue to spark volatility in the financial markets, discipline and risk management will be extremely crucial in the upcoming week of trading. In this newsletter, I want to walk you through the Funded Account Performance Metrics of a trader who has just received a 5-figure profit payout from Trading Terminal. Aside from the 5-figure profit, let’s pay attention to what Francisco has done exceptionally well on his funded training account. Francisco C. (TTFVM2781) |

| Trader Performance Review:
First, the trader’s average winner far exceeds his average loser, reflected in a 1.82 risk-reward ratio. His largest win ($7,356) was more than twice the size of his largest loss ($3,288). With a win rate of 38.79%, the key to his profitability is his risk management, keeping his losses controlled and smaller than his wins. Looking at his P&L curve, Francisco started his account with a drawdown period. I have seen so many traders lose it all after entering a drawdown, because they would use bigger sizes to try to make the profits back quickly. A matured trader would size down when they are in a losing streak. Your P&L will gradually return to positive as long as you keep losses more and find the right setups for your edge. |

In a volatile market driven by fears and uncertainties, some traders can really capture the big moves and grow their accounts efficiently, while some would keep getting chopped and stopped out. There are 2 important skillsets that will make a huge difference between the winning and losing traders: 1. Trade management I always emphasize the importance of taking partial profits, trailing stop loss to VWAP once your trade is working, and cutting a losing trade quick when trading breakouts. Having the discipline to execute these in your live trade is crucial to your success given the current market conditions. 2. Finding high probability trades |

| Reading the depth of market on a visualization tool like Market Atlas helps you identify the strongest liquidity level. These liquidity “magnets” give traders better clarity and improved conviction to let their trade run further.
I talked about this $TSLA sell-off move on this Thursday’s live trading session. When TSLA broke below $400, traders in our chatroom spotted this high probability short-selling setup targeting $395. |
