description: "1. Never invest more than 2% of your total capital in a single trade?Even with the most confident opportunity, never get carried away.Remember: Surviving is more important than how much you make in one go.2. Always set a clear stop-loss point.Before entering the market, be clear about how much loss you can bear this time.When the price hits the stop-loss line, exit decisively, never linger in the trade.3. Take profits in batches, let profits run. When floating profits exceed 50%, take out half of the principal first.Set a trailing stop for the rest, using the profits to bet for greater gains."
