5 risk rules every new trader should learn before their first trade: 1. Pick your max loss before you enter. 2. Size it so one bad trade can't sink your month. 3. Treat high leverage as a red flag, not a feature. It's how traders get wiped out. 4. Set a stop and don't move it. 5. If you can't explain the trade in one sentence, skip it. Protect the downside first.
