Risk Management in Futures Trading: A Structured Framework for Capital Preservation and Consistency


Date & Time: March 10, 2026 —   8:00 pm  ET  
Presented by:  Thor Young

In this session, we break down a professional approach to managing risk while trading futures and why capital preservation is the foundation of long-term performance. Futures markets move quickly and offer significant leverage, making disciplined risk control essential rather than optional.

The webinar will cover how to define risk per trade, structure position sizing based on contract specifications, and calculate exposure relative to account size. We will discuss stop placement methodology, volatility considerations, margin awareness, and how to avoid emotional decision-making during fast market conditions. Special attention will be given to adapting risk parameters during high-impact news events and varying liquidity environments.

Through practical trade examples and a clear step-by-step framework, attendees will learn how to build a repeatable risk management process that protects capital while allowing for consistent opportunity. This session is designed for traders who want to operate with precision, control drawdowns, and trade futures with confidence rather than uncertainty.
