LEARNING CENTER
Learn Market Basics and Risk Management
01 · CURRICULUM
Work through it in order, from the basics to journalling
CFD structure
Understand the difference between holding the underlying asset and taking part in the profit or loss from its price difference.
Leverage and margin
Work out how controlling a large notional value on small margin enlarges losses too.
Trading costs
See how spreads, commissions, swaps and conversion costs affect your result.
Order types
Practise the difference in execution between market, limit and pending orders, stop losses and take profits.
Demo practice
Check platform controls and order flow without real money, but never read a demo result as a guarantee of profit.
Trading plan
Before entering, write out your loss limit, your invalidation condition and your exit rule in full sentences.
EAs and automation
Have a stop procedure ready for overfitting, slippage, connection failure and abnormal orders.
02 · PRACTICE
Keep a record of what you learn
Plan
Write down your pre-trade conditions, your risk limit and the situations in which you will not trade.
Journal
Record the time, the price, your reasoning and your emotional state in the same format every time.
Review
Separately from whether it made money, look at whether you followed the plan and where execution went wrong.
When to stop
Set a rule for stopping after consecutive losses, a system error, or when emotion runs high.
