1. Risk Management Core Framework
Stop Loss Techniques
Fixed Ratio Stop Loss: Individual loss ≤ Total capital 1% (e.g., 100,000 principal, stop loss limit 1,000 yuan).
Technical stop loss: immediately exit if it breaks below the previous low (bullish) or breaks above the previous high (bearish).
Position and Capital Management
Single position ≤ 10% of total capital, diversified into 2-3 varieties to reduce risk.
Profit Protection: Move the stop loss to the cost price after a floating profit of 50%, and let the remaining position bet on the continuation of the trend.
Time Window Control
Efficient time periods: Early session 30 minutes (maximum volatility), second trend during lunch break (11:00-11:30).
Avoidance period: 10:30-11:00, reduce operations during the sideways period to lower friction costs.
🧠 Psychological and Discipline Requirements
Pre-market plan: clarify entry conditions, stop-loss/profit-taking points, and reject ad-hoc decisions during trading.
Review Mechanism: Record daily trading details and analyze the reasons for mistakes (such as going against the trend, hesitation in stop-loss).
Emotional Control: Limit daily trades to ≤5 to avoid frequent operations that may lead to an imbalance in mindset.
2. Practical Optimization Suggestions
Simulated Verification: Test the new strategy on a simulated account for 2 weeks, and apply it in real trading if the win rate is >60%.
Variety selection: Focus on high liquidity targets (such as the main contracts of stock index futures and crude oil futures) to reduce slippage impact.
Dynamic Adjustment: Reduce positions by 50% on major event days (such as Federal Reserve meetings) to avoid gap risk.
Key Reminder: Day trading is essentially a game of probabilities, and long-term profitability = consistent execution + strict risk management. It is recommended that initial capital be ≤ 20,000, and gradually increase the position after becoming proficient.
