The #1 reason traders fail isn't bad entries — it's bad risk management. Learn the rules that protect your account.
Never risk more than 1-2% of your account on a single trade. If your account is R10,000, your maximum loss per trade should be R100-R200. This keeps you in the game even after losing streaks.
FXSynapse AI gives you a calculated stop loss for every analysis. Always use it. A trade without a stop loss is gambling, not trading.
Risk management is about controlling potential losses. FXSynapse shows your R:R ratio — a higher ratio means your potential reward exceeds your risk per trade. Always manage your capital responsibly.
Calculate your lot size based on: (Account × Risk%) ÷ (Entry - Stop Loss in pips × pip value). Many brokers have lot size calculators. Getting this right is more important than your entry.
Don't revenge trade after a loss. Don't over-leverage after a win. The AI removes emotional bias from analysis — let it do its job. Your job is managing the risk.
