Continue to share risk management and psychological strategies for intraday trading.


1.Risk Management Core Framework
Stop Loss Techniques
Fixed ratio stop loss: Single loss ≤ total capital 1% (e.g., for 100,000 principal, stop loss limit 1,000 yuan).
Technical stop-loss: Exit immediately if it falls below the previous low (bullish) or breaks above the previous high (bearish).
Position and Capital Management
Single position ≤ 10% of total funds, diversified into 2-3 varieties to reduce risk.
Profit Protection: Move the stop loss to the cost price after floating profits reach 50%, and hold the remaining position to bet on the trend continuation.
Time Window Control
Efficient time periods: Morning session 30 minutes (maximum volatility), afternoon session second trend (11:00-11:30).
Avoidance period: 10:30-11:00, reduce operations during the consolidation period to lower friction costs.
🧠 Psychological and Discipline Requirements
Pre-market plan: clarify entry conditions, stop-loss/take-profit points, and refuse to make temporary decisions during trading.
Review mechanism: Record trading details daily, analyze the reasons for mistakes (such as going against the trend, hesitation in stop-loss).
Emotional Control: Limit day trading to ≤5 trades to avoid frequent operations leading to an imbalanced mindset.
2. Practical Optimization Suggestions
Simulation Verification: Test the new strategy on a simulated account for 2 weeks, with a win rate > 60% before applying it in the real market.
Variety selection: Focus on high liquidity targets (such as the main contracts of stock index futures and crude oil futures) to reduce slippage impact.
Dynamic Adjustment: Reduce positions by 50% on major event days (such as Federal Reserve meetings) to avoid gap risk.
Key Reminder: Day trading is essentially a probability game, long-term profitability = consistent execution + strict Risk Management. It is recommended that initial capital ≤ 20,000, and gradually increase positions after becoming proficient.
