Scaling size the right way

Risk & Position Sizing

A track record, not a hot streak

One great week is not proof a strategy is ready for bigger size. Scaling up belongs after a track record of consistent results over many trades, not after a single hot streak.

The next trade doesn't know about your streak

Doubling size right after a big win is a common trap. The next trade doesn't know about the win streak, it carries the exact same odds of losing as any other trade.

Gradual, tied to real evidence

A disciplined scaling plan increases size gradually, often in small steps tied to account growth or a proven sample size of trades, not emotional reactions to a single result.
