Protecting your capital is paramount in CFD trading. Here's how to master the art of risk management:

📊 Position Sizing: Determine your position size based on your risk tolerance and account size. Avoid overleveraging, which can lead to substantial losses.

📈 Diversification: Don't put all your capital into a single trade or asset. Diversify your portfolio to spread risk across various instruments.

🚦 Setting Stop-Loss Orders: Always use stop-loss orders to limit potential losses. These orders automatically close your position at a predefined price level.

💡 Risk-Reward Ratio: Aim for a favorable risk-reward ratio. For example, if your potential profit is twice the size of your potential loss, it's a 2:1 risk-reward ratio.

🔄 Adaptability: Be prepared to adapt your strategy based on market conditions. Don't let emotions drive your trading decisions.

🛡️ Capital Preservation: Ultimately, successful trading is about preserving your capital. Prioritize capital preservation over aggressive gains.
