Drawdown management, also called Maximum Loss Control, focuses on keeping each loss small. It sets a loss limit that triggers a pause or a size cut. The idea is simple.

Your Trading How-To Guide:
1. Check the daily chart for the pair you trade. Look for a clear range between recent highs and lows. Mark the mid point as a reference.
2. Set a loss limit that is a small fraction of your account. For a moderate risk profile aim for one percent per trade.
3. When price hits the edge of the range, consider a modest entry. If the loss limit is reached after a few trades, pause and step back. (5/7)

4. Adjust position size based on the current volatility. In low volatility you can use a slightly larger stop but keep the dollar risk low.
5. Review your trades at the end of the day. Record the loss amount and the reason for each exit. Use the log to fine tune the next day.

Risk Management Notes:
If a loss cluster occurs, the pause prevents a deep drawdown. Always keep the risk per trade below the set limit. Avoid adding to a losing position. (6/7)
