Taking loss is a part of the Forex trading process. Even the best systems show losing positions and, over time, streaks of such losing positions. To protect your trading account’s balance from disappearing, it’s important to follow some money management (or otherwise called risk management) system. Limiting your potential loss per each position is a basic practice of such system. One of the first things that a professional real account trader learns to do is to limit the loss per position. It may be a very different value for different trading strategies, market situations and levels of the financial aggressiveness. Lately, I prefer risking no more than 1%-2% per trade, that not only helps me to save my balance but also to protect me from rather bad emotions, connected with the large losses. And how about you?
