The Ten Commandments of Capital Preservation. A code for life, not rules to follow until you "make it." Below is the spine of Chapter 11, in the author's words. #unbrokentrader #gm
Pyramid only to winners The most profitable principle in speculation, and why averaging down is the fastest route to ruin.
The 5% rule The single line beyond which human rationality breaks down and how to stay on the right side of it. #unbrokentrader

Most traders aren't ruined by a market crash, a black swan, or a bad tip. They are ruined by a moved stop, a doubled-down loser, a single oversized position that turned a bad day into a liquidated account. #trading #money #btc
90% of traders lose money. It isn't because their strategies are bad. It's because their money management is. The Unbroken Trader is the framework that keeps you in the game long enough for compounding to make you rich.
