Whatever you trade, the same few ideas decide whether you last: how much you risk on one trade, how losses compound, how far you are exposed in total, and whether you follow your own rules under stress. This path covers the arithmetic first, then portfolio risk, then testing, then the habits that keep decisions consistent.
Read this first. Trading and leveraged products can lose more than you expect, and most people who trade actively lose money over time. No sizing rule or stop-loss removes that risk, and stops can fill well away from your price. Rules on leverage, margin and who may trade which products differ by country. This is education, not advice.
