The Daily Loss Limit:
Why Every Serious Trader Needs One

The simplest rule to stop tilt from wrecking your account.

Well, yesterday was interesting…huh?

It started off quiet, low ATRs, mild gap up on the Nas…

Then Elon and DJT started chucking digital buns at each other on X.

🥊In the Red corner…

🥊And in the other red corner… 🤯

Very entertaining, unless you’re a Tesla shareholder…. Down 14% gulp!
​
Anyway, back on topic…let’s talk risk.

DAILY LOSS LIMITS

Daily loss limits…Not sexy.
​
But it’ll save your trading career.
​
​I’ve seen too many promising traders blow up after one dumb decision.
​
​That one turns into five… and before they know it, they’re buried.
​
​Some never recover.
Others spend months clawing back to breakeven.
​
And yeah, I get it…
You’re angry. You’re tilted. You want it back now.
​But you’ve got to walk away.
You’ve got to live to fight another day.
​
​A loss limit? Meh… you can bounce back from that.
​
A full-on 50% drawdown because you kept pressing?
That’s a whole different story.
​
👉🏻Set it.
👉🏻Write it down.
👉🏻Mentally rehearse hitting it.
​
​So when it happens, you don’t freeze… you execute.
​
Yeah, it sucks in the moment.
But a few hours later?
​
You’ll feel like a sniper… cool, calm, and still in the game.
It’s a separator.
