The risk formula that changed everything...

“I was right about the direction… but I still lost money.”

That painful realization haunted me in my early trading years.

And still end up with losses.

Sound familiar?

Eventually, I discovered the missing piece: Being right about direction is only half the battle.

The other half—the part that separates consistently profitable traders from everyone else—is risk management.

And it’s something we drill deep into inside Platinum and Elite, where we break down the Adaptive Trading Approach.

Today, I'm sharing the exact risk management formula I use on every single trade - the same formula that's helped me maintain an ~80% win rate over the past year.

Here’s what it usually looks like…

1. First trim: Take 1/3 of your position off at 20% profit

This locks in profit early, ensuring the trade can't turn from winner to loser.

2. Second trim: Take another 1/3 off at 40% profit

This often covers your entire initial risk, making the remainder essentially "free."

3. Final trim: Let the last 1/3 run with a trailing stop

This is where life-changing gains happen because when your risk is covered, you can let winners run for maximum profit.

But here's the step most traders miss completely:

Before you even enter a trade, you must determine your position size... 

Here's the formula I use:

Position Size = (Account Size × Risk %) ÷ Maximum Loss %

This approach works whether you're starting with $500 or $500,000 - the percentages remain the same 

When Jonathan first joined Platinum & applied The Adaptive Trading Approach, he had just $800 left in his trading account after a string of losses.

By applying this exact formula, he protected his small account while still capturing significant upside…

Turning $800 into $51,700 in just one month.

You have to remember, stops are your friend

They're there to protect you, not to say if you're right or wrong…

When you have the right system in place to approach risk, it completely transforms how you experience trading:

• Emotions no longer drive decisions

• You know exactly what you're risking before entering any trade

• You have clear exit points for both winning and losing scenarios

• Your account grows steadily instead of swinging wildly

Because The Market Doesn’t Care About Your Hopes or Fears.

But a risk management system does.

And thats difference between consistently profitable traders and everyone else isn't intelligence - it's having the right system.

You see average traders fail with risk management…

• They size positions based on "conviction" rather than mathematics

• They hold losing trades hoping for a reversal

• They take profits too early on winners and don't let them run

• They increase position size after losses to "make back" what they lost

But once you start using a proper risk management system you turn your trading dreams into reality…

This insight completely transformed how I view chart patterns and has been crucial to my 80% win rate.

And that’s why March 25th, I'll be doing something we’ve never done before..
