How to Manage Risk on a $5,000 Funded Account (Step-by-Step)
Intro:
"Many traders lose their funded accounts in the first week because they ignore one simple thing: Risk Management. Today, I’m sharing how I manage my $5,000 account to stay in the game for the long term."
Key Points:
The 1% Rule: Never risk more than 1% ($50) per trade. This gives you 100 'lives' before the account is gone.
Daily Drawdown Awareness: Most firms have a 4-5% daily limit. If you lose 2-3% in one day, stop trading. Walk away and come back tomorrow with a fresh mind.
Position Sizing: Use a calculator to determine your lot size based on your Stop Loss (SL) pips. Don't just guess!
Consistency > Profit: Focus on following your setup (like Fibonacci levels or Price Action) rather than chasing a 10% gain in one day.
Conclusion:
"Trading is a marathon, not a sprint. Protect your capital first, and the profits will follow."
