📖 Guide: 3 Steps to Systematic FTT Trading
Welcome to the Trading Academy! Successful trading isn't about guessing or luck—it’s built on a strict system, discipline, and smart capital management.
Step 1. The Core Rule: Money Management
The most common beginner mistake is placing trades with their entire account balance. Professionals never do this.
- The Golden Rule: A single trade amount should never exceed 2–5% of your total deposit.
- Example: If your account balance is $100, your standard trade should be $2–$5.
- Why it matters: Even if you face 3 losing trades in a row, you preserve 90% of your capital and easily cover the drawdown with subsequent profitable signals.
Step 2. Managing Drawdowns (Account Replenishment)
Market fluctuations are a natural part of trading that every trader experiences. The key is how you respond.
- If your day ends in a loss: Never try to “win it back” emotionally by multiplying your trade amounts.
- The Systematic Approach: Take a break, review the analysis in our Telegram channel, and replenish your balance back to a comfortable working level.
- Why it matters: To follow the strategy effectively and execute new signals at full volume, your account needs a proper financial cushion. Refilling your balance restores control and keeps you trading safely within money management rules.
Step 3. The “Scale & Lock” Strategy
Use a cyclical approach for consistent growth:
- Build Your Working Capital: An optimal starting deposit for comfortable trading is $50–$100.
- Trade the Signals: Target a +20–30% gain on your deposit per trading session.
- Lock In Profits: Withdraw your net earnings while leaving your core working capital active.
- Scale Up: As your experience grows, increase your working capital—the larger your deposit, the higher your absolute returns with minimal relative risk!
