Need better risk management, what’s ur position size? Win rate? RR?

Low RR's like 1:1 is goated gang, and an edge build around it can change our lives, but our ego's are too big to accept that 🥀..

I mostly trade on the 3m with confirmation based on hourly along with other confluences. Before I didn't follow my trading rules and that's why I lost or I'd enter a reversal early even though it wasn't near the bottom like how I'd want it to be. After that i log the trade in my trading journal and then log it in mt5 with a RR box and move on. I've improved since then and now I wait for my setups but I don't take some of them which is messing me up..

Learned some basics from Ross and Warrior Trading on his YouTube videos. I still have issues, selling too soon and taking 1:1 RR instead of the planned 1:3 RR, or anywhere in between. So I have a lot to figure out myself. I reduce my account to $1k each week to keep myself stable emotionally.

The RR stops it from bringing profitable. With 1:1 R theres a 50/50 chance. You move the profit and the likelihood of hitting the stop becomes higher.

You gotta deposit £1... I got orange for £12, and scooped about £1 in divs and h&m I think.
My friend got 2 RR for £25

Mine isn't really "the ORB" as one generic setup — it's a handful of fixed time-of-day slots per instrument (so time itself is part of the edge hypothesis, not just the breakout mechanic), each with its own SL multiplier and RR tuned separately, and I force an out-of-sample split so the numbers I trust are the ones the parameter search never saw. Still mostly backtest-confirmed at this point — only one slot actually has a live-tracked record going back further, the rest are fresh enough that I'm treating them as "survived the first check," not proven. That's the honest state of it right now, not a victory lap.

been trading futures on prop firms for about 9 months now. still losing more than i win but they aren’t bad loses necessarily. obviously sometimes my bias for the day is wrong and im good accepting when thats the case. but i cant help but feel like im very close to profitability because more often than not, when i lose it’s because im getting wicked out by 10 points or less (i trade S&P 500) and then watch price go to TP. my bias for the day is usually right i just cant get my entry’s down. its very frustrating at times. i take 1 trade a day for a 1:3 RR. my entry’s involve either a higher time frame rejection block getting tapped into or an IFVG, i also dabble with the fibonacci tool. i really want to improve but i dont know what to do at this point. any tips.

If you know what your doing, which most people do not, because they love to make analysis on h1, m15 and m5, you can with a constant risk of 30$ per trade, make 90$ - 120$ a few times in a week. Withdraw, start again at 1k, until you fill up your bank acc with a few k.
Account at 900, half the risk to 15
$ until your back at 1k.
Will you have drawdown? Sure. But how often would you be wrong trading weekly and daily timeframe and entering on lower timeframes for a decent RR?
Ofc this has to be done on many instruments, because if your selective on weekly and daily, one instrument will not give you a trade every day.

I’d suggest win rate 50% if u have RR 2-3+ look at my image for reference to be profitable

VALL because Etf. RR is massive in aerospace, defence, power systems and nuclear reactors, really massive 5x since 2022. Hims because I believe peptides are going to get approved and take over😂. Always been a massive supporter in the growth of copper. Google is exploding and have long term contracts with meta. AMD runs NVidia’s models at scale where the demand is, and Vistra is well positioned if US electricity demand keeps on going the way its going.

I understand, but assuming the trading windows is 100 candles, and assume I have two positions, one short and one long , both 2 RR , we can expect at the end of 100 candles, either long or short trade will be profitable, now if I make 100 trades like this , I can expect theoretical 50 times I'm correct and 50 times I'm incorrect, but assuming lost is 100 and win is 200 , for 50 random win , I make 10000 and for 50 losts , I lose 5000 , so still profitable,

The tone is bearish but their only examples show a 3:1 RR

Assume I enter a random trade anywhere in the chart , I set 1:2 RR , I make 100 trades like this , now my question is what stops the strategy from being profitable? Assuming I need around 40% minimum winrate, and there is a good chance I guess 50% of setups right and 50% wrong , I'm still above minimum winrate requirements

I totally get that. What helped me stick to a single rule was quoting the expectancy per trade—the net profit divided by the dollar risk. After I nailed my 1:2 RR and 2×ATR stops I ran 50 trades, plotted the curve, and if it kept trending up I went ahead, if it was wobbly I added a 3‑hour EMA bias filter before the next run. Keeping a tiny spreadsheet with just those two columns really reinforced the “don’t tweak after a loss” mindset.

Listen kid I trade since 2014, I'll give you the bread and butter of this thing I'll use only logic with my argument and direct you to the right track.
There's no such thing as discipline unless you are fuckin risk management or break your own strategy rules period.
You're argument I over trade and give back my profits I'd say, quant and HFT funds trade 24/5 a week yet they come ahead everytime until they don't, the logic here is they have a statistical/mathematical edge that makes em money, if you execute your trades according to your strategy 100% and stick to risk management and you give back your profit then the obvious here is your strategy, you don't have an edge over the market in the long run, most successful vetted trader's not guru online bullshit don't have an edge over 0.3% yes you've read that right, 49.7% of their trades are losing trades and only 50.3% are winners with multiple RR per trade you'll always be ahead of the market no matter where the market is up or down.

I’ve been trading for a while now and honestly I’ve been through the whole cycle of overtrading, changing strategies every few weeks, trying to find the next thing that works, and just getting mentally exhausted from it. I’ve looked into ICT, FVGs, liquidity sweeps, sweeping Asian highs/lows, all that stuff, but at this point I don’t really trust those concepts for myself. A lot of it just started feeling like gambling to me. What’s actually given me the best results so far is literally just my simple strategy: 1H trend following, EMA to identify the trend, fixed RR, same ATR/risk every time, and taking the same setup without constantly changing things. I’m still not profitable, so I’m definitely not saying I’ve figured it out, but this is the first approach that has felt somewhat consistent for me. I think the biggest thing is just not overtrading, not changing your strategy after every loss, and letting the same system play out over a decent sample. Anyone else gone through the same thing?

Thank you that's my edge sits on high RR

The risk throttle is conservative, but I’d judge it from the worst losing streak and daily loss distribution, not the nominal 1:3 RR. A funded account can fail on rule timing if the stop or drawdown is measured intraday, so I’d replay the exact firm rules including spread, slippage, and reset time. How large is the historical sample and what happens to the plan after five or six losses in a row?
