Rules

This page is a repository of rules by which I trade. They don't represent a complete trading plan, per se, but rather a collection of maxims that are to become second-nature in my trading. These rules are inviolate and unbreakable. It is a living list that will grow as time goes on.
  1. Never let a winning trade turn into a loser.
  2. A stop loss only moves one way - in the direction of the trade.
  3. Plan your trades. Trade your plan.
  4. Keep records of your trading results.
  5. Don't trade others' tips.
  6. Never open a position without a stop.
  7. Never trade out of boredom or anxiety.
  8. If the market doesn't act as you expect, get out.
  9. Never add to a losing position.
