Tailoring your trading strategy to your personal risk tolerance is essential. It's like having a custom-fit suit—it just works better. The inclusion of trailing stops is particularly savvy, as it allows profits to run while safeguarding gains.

Correct, and you have to also determine, under what conditions.. again.. the same though process.

There is one risk strategy - always apply stop losses for your orders. Sometimes you will feel like everything is covered and your position looks solid.
But then you open the terminal and find out that your P/L is in big minus.
All the experienced traders had those situations many times.
So don’t play with the market and place the stop losses.

The more capital involved in trading, the lower the risk should be. The loss-to-profit ratio should always be at least 1.5 times the positive expectation, and preferably more.

I think an effective way to handle risks in forex trading is to set stop-loss to limit your losses and use leverage wisely. Diversify your trades and stay alert to market changes to adjust your approach accordingly.

I assume things like not to trade if you are not sure in the market situation entirely, are also can be viewed as risk management.
Cuz you can avoid a lot of losses adopting this kind of mentality

I always set a stop-loss for each trade to limit losses, and I never risk more than 1-2% of my capital on a single trade. It's important to keep the position size within safe limits and diversify trades to reduce risks. I constantly try to learn and analyze the market, and I keep my emotions under control to avoid hasty decisions. Additionally, adhering to a clear trading plan with defined entry and exit strategies is crucial

Never invest more than 3% of your total capital in one position. Learn from your past experiences, review them, and find out what went wrong or what you did wrong. SL and TP settings are another obvious way to go about it. Small amounts in multiple positions—that is another strategy that's been very useful to me personally.
