    视频的开头提到了今天是美国独立日，但发言者仍然决定录制这个关于头寸规模的视频。内容主要围绕如何确定合适的头寸规模（lot size）展开，分为三种方式：1. 固定头寸规模；2. 每次计算头寸规模；3. 全仓交易（即完全不建议的做法）。发言者推荐使用一个名为"stenu"的应用程序来快速计算外汇交易的头寸规模。

  • 00:05:00 - 00:10:00

    接着，发言者演示了如何计算头寸规模，使用了$1000的账户和30点的止损。在提到其他的工具时，发言者建议使用网站进行计算，展示了在不同账户下得到的头寸规模结果，还说明了不同资产（如S&P500）的风险计算方式，同时需注意合约规模和风险承受能力。

  • 00:10:00 - 00:15:27

    最后，发言者讲解了关于正常风险、降低风险和自信风险的概念，强调了在没有足够信心和经验时不应使用高风险策略，而应集中在稳健的交易策略上，适合初学者的策略是正常风险和降低风险。最后提到了明天的交易回顾。

  • 00:00:00
    all right first of all
  • 00:00:03
    um happy Fourth of July but I'm gonna be
  • 00:00:07
    busy today because it's the fourth and
  • 00:00:09
    it's a holiday and if everybody else is
  • 00:00:11
    taking taking days off so am I okay I'm
  • 00:00:14
    gonna make this video and then I'm gonna
  • 00:00:16
    leave all right
  • 00:00:17
    um so we'll
  • 00:00:20
    hair my mouth so we'll make this really
  • 00:00:22
    quick today is going to be going over
  • 00:00:24
    position sizing okay so we covered take
  • 00:00:26
    profits we covered stop losses
  • 00:00:31
    um and now I want to talk about figuring
  • 00:00:34
    out what law size you want to use and
  • 00:00:35
    there's essentially well there's three
  • 00:00:37
    strategies there's using a set loss size
  • 00:00:40
    for every single
  • 00:00:43
    I'm about to throw that ball out bro
  • 00:00:45
    boogies is driving me crazy Boogie come
  • 00:00:47
    here
  • 00:00:53
    where did you put it
  • 00:00:54
    yeah this is mine you're done with this
  • 00:00:57
    get on the bed and lay down
  • 00:01:01
    oh
  • 00:01:04
    bro's giving me a headache anyways
  • 00:01:07
    sorry start from the beginning okay
  • 00:01:10
    there's three different ways that you
  • 00:01:11
    can do this
  • 00:01:13
    okay you have you can use a set loss
  • 00:01:16
    size that's what I use and I use a range
  • 00:01:18
    of set loss sizes and we'll talk about
  • 00:01:20
    that you can also calculate your loss
  • 00:01:22
    size every single time okay so that's
  • 00:01:25
    what we'll show how to do and then you
  • 00:01:27
    can also full port which you will never
  • 00:01:29
    do and if you do I will be very upset so
  • 00:01:32
    third option is completely out of out of
  • 00:01:35
    the picture Okay so we're gonna go over
  • 00:01:38
    the second option right now which is
  • 00:01:40
    calculating your own lot size so
  • 00:01:43
    you are going to start off all right go
  • 00:01:47
    find whatever lot size calculator you
  • 00:01:49
    want okay there's a great app on the app
  • 00:01:52
    store called stenu okay it's
  • 00:01:56
    s-t-i-n-u not a sponsor not an ad
  • 00:02:00
    um and this is what I used to use Okay
  • 00:02:02
    so
  • 00:02:04
    when you open it it'll look like this I
  • 00:02:06
    don't know if you guys can see this that
  • 00:02:08
    well but essentially it says account
  • 00:02:10
    balance at the top risk amount and
  • 00:02:12
    percent and then stop loss in Pips okay
  • 00:02:14
    so all you do let's say we have a 1 000
  • 00:02:18
    account okay you type in a thousand up
  • 00:02:20
    there and then let's say we want to risk
  • 00:02:22
    one percent we type one in there and
  • 00:02:25
    then let's say our stop loss is 30 Pips
  • 00:02:28
    we type 30 in there and then we go to
  • 00:02:30
    the next and then it gives you all the
  • 00:02:32
    4X pairs right there
  • 00:02:34
    um this one unfortunately does not have
  • 00:02:37
    the S P 500 that's why we have this
  • 00:02:39
    thing up okay but this has all Forex
  • 00:02:41
    pairs in cold including gold okay so
  • 00:02:43
    what do you do let's say we're doing GBP
  • 00:02:45
    USC you click GBP first and it gives you
  • 00:02:49
    boom GBP slash above and then you could
  • 00:02:51
    just click USC then you click calculate
  • 00:02:53
    and it tells you the exact lot size that
  • 00:02:55
    you should use to risk that amount for
  • 00:02:58
    your account size super great app use
  • 00:03:00
    that for Forex stuff I think it's like
  • 00:03:02
    fourteen dollars you have to pay like a
  • 00:03:05
    year to use it and if that's a lot of
  • 00:03:07
    money to you guys you shouldn't be
  • 00:03:08
    trading okay moving forward okay that's
  • 00:03:13
    how you can do it on your phone to do it
  • 00:03:15
    on the internet we have this nice little
  • 00:03:17
    this this nice little website right here
  • 00:03:20
    okay and I like using this site because
  • 00:03:23
    it has the option for
  • 00:03:27
    the s p okay and it has 4X pairs so two
  • 00:03:31
    and one all right versus stenu doesn't
  • 00:03:33
    have that okay so same thing on here
  • 00:03:35
    let's say we have one thousand dollar
  • 00:03:38
    account balance and let's say we have a
  • 00:03:40
    30 pip stop loss and we want to risk one
  • 00:03:43
    percent all you do boom click calculate
  • 00:03:47
    and then it throws you out a lot size so
  • 00:03:49
    for this I would use 0.03 Lots
  • 00:03:52
    right because we can't use we can't go
  • 00:03:55
    any farther past two decimal places okay
  • 00:03:58
    so boom what are we risking ten dollars
  • 00:04:01
    perfect okay let's say we want to do
  • 00:04:08
    boom okay zero point okay so for this we
  • 00:04:11
    would have to do a 0.01
  • 00:04:14
    block size oops I said 200.
  • 00:04:18
    30.
  • 00:04:20
    boom 0.03 just like that super simple
  • 00:04:24
    super easy this is how you can calculate
  • 00:04:26
    your lot size okay and
  • 00:04:29
    if you don't know what your stop loss is
  • 00:04:32
    in Pips
  • 00:04:33
    we'll make this really easy
  • 00:04:35
    ready
  • 00:04:39
    this is the easiest way to do it when
  • 00:04:40
    you set up your short position tool
  • 00:04:42
    okay see this number right here that is
  • 00:04:45
    it that's your stop-loss and Pips so as
  • 00:04:47
    we drag this right let's say boom our
  • 00:04:49
    stop loss 11. boom stop loss 47 Pips
  • 00:04:53
    stop loss 16 Pips perfect boom
  • 00:04:56
    16 calculate plug it into your phone
  • 00:04:59
    enter the trade boom we're good we know
  • 00:05:02
    what we're risking super freaking easy
  • 00:05:04
    okay moving forward to the s p
  • 00:05:08
    this one gets a little bit tricky
  • 00:05:12
    see how things changed so what I like to
  • 00:05:16
    do is I like to switch it to stop loss
  • 00:05:18
    and Pips okay so how did I do that
  • 00:05:21
    okay I just go here boom switch stop
  • 00:05:24
    loss of Pips and then you also have to
  • 00:05:26
    click calculate lot size it um within
  • 00:05:29
    mt4 or mt5
  • 00:05:32
    okay and we'll talk about this later the
  • 00:05:34
    contract size
  • 00:05:36
    um our unit size per lot I talk about
  • 00:05:39
    all the time on Tick Tock videos because
  • 00:05:41
    everyone's like oh
  • 00:05:42
    this dude is doing a hundred Lots per
  • 00:05:45
    trade no I'm not like you don't
  • 00:05:47
    understand the difference between lot
  • 00:05:49
    sizes like that just goes to show you
  • 00:05:51
    don't know how this Works bruh okay
  • 00:05:54
    but anyways S P 500 what's our account
  • 00:05:57
    balance let's say it's a hundred
  • 00:05:59
    thousand because
  • 00:06:01
    whatever okay stop loss and Pitch same
  • 00:06:03
    thing go to the s p boom boom boom boom
  • 00:06:06
    okay what's our stop loss okay
  • 00:06:10
    1807
  • 00:06:14
    and yes that is correct because
  • 00:06:18
    the s p is usually in points okay so
  • 00:06:21
    usually it would be you know less than
  • 00:06:23
    that pip is less than a point all right
  • 00:06:25
    I don't want to explain that um any more
  • 00:06:28
    than I have to okay and then moving
  • 00:06:29
    forward right because the this it'll
  • 00:06:32
    calculate it in Pips for you okay so
  • 00:06:33
    boom this is this would be
  • 00:06:36
    um four thousand seven hundred this one
  • 00:06:38
    would be 789 okay got it cool moving
  • 00:06:42
    forward
  • 00:06:43
    go over here we don't care about the US
  • 00:06:45
    pip size
  • 00:06:46
    um we do care about the risks at what
  • 00:06:48
    what your risk tolerance is okay and
  • 00:06:50
    then now for the contract size per lot
  • 00:06:52
    most offshore brokerages okay most of
  • 00:06:57
    them
  • 00:06:58
    are
  • 00:07:00
    um
  • 00:07:00
    are 100 units per lot okay
  • 00:07:05
    so don't make that don't make the
  • 00:07:08
    decision of like oh yeah I'm just going
  • 00:07:10
    to go based off of what most are so
  • 00:07:12
    we're going to teach you how to do it
  • 00:07:14
    you're going to open up your little
  • 00:07:15
    metatrader okay
  • 00:07:17
    and then you're going to click on SPX
  • 00:07:19
    right and then it gives you the option
  • 00:07:20
    to trade chart or details you are going
  • 00:07:23
    to click details
  • 00:07:25
    and then from there
  • 00:07:27
    you are going to find the line where it
  • 00:07:28
    says contract size okay see on mine
  • 00:07:32
    where it says contract size and then to
  • 00:07:34
    the right of it it says 10
  • 00:07:38
    okay that means
  • 00:07:40
    it's contract size 10 units per lot so
  • 00:07:43
    that's what I'm going to plug in here if
  • 00:07:45
    you have a different offshore brokerage
  • 00:07:46
    if you don't use hanco trade
  • 00:07:48
    odds are yours is probably going to be a
  • 00:07:50
    hundred a lot of prop firms their con
  • 00:07:53
    their units per lot is going to be 10.
  • 00:07:56
    so make sure whenever you open a new
  • 00:07:58
    account with a different brokerage with
  • 00:07:59
    any different firm with anything
  • 00:08:02
    you check this because this could really
  • 00:08:04
    mess you up okay so boom 10 units per
  • 00:08:07
    lot
  • 00:08:09
    calculate it boom this is the lot size
  • 00:08:11
    window I will I will be using just like
  • 00:08:14
    that plug it in take a trade
  • 00:08:17
    that is how you calculate lot size super
  • 00:08:19
    freaking easy but it takes a lot of time
  • 00:08:22
    so this is what I like to do right
  • 00:08:25
    and this just takes kind of a little bit
  • 00:08:27
    of time to start understanding yourself
  • 00:08:29
    and how you trade but let's say
  • 00:08:33
    right I have a relatively good feel for
  • 00:08:36
    how I trade and
  • 00:08:39
    I can kind of understand
  • 00:08:42
    how large my stop loss is going to be
  • 00:08:47
    most of the time or here let's pull it
  • 00:08:50
    over here and like
  • 00:08:52
    let's go more towards Market yeah
  • 00:08:59
    okay
  • 00:09:01
    so
  • 00:09:02
    most of the time my stop loss on the S P
  • 00:09:05
    500 is anywhere from 400 Pips to like
  • 00:09:09
    you know like four points
  • 00:09:12
    to we'll say like
  • 00:09:15
    I don't know like we'll for this example
  • 00:09:17
    we'll just say
  • 00:09:19
    Four Points to seven points okay so what
  • 00:09:23
    do you do
  • 00:09:24
    you go in here
  • 00:09:25
    switch this
  • 00:09:27
    to Pips okay let's say her account
  • 00:09:29
    balance is still a hundred thousand
  • 00:09:30
    dollars
  • 00:09:31
    stop loss and points you're going to set
  • 00:09:33
    your your minimum right like what's like
  • 00:09:35
    usually the lowest your stop loss will
  • 00:09:37
    will be during a trade okay so for me
  • 00:09:40
    it's usually 400. okay we calculate that
  • 00:09:44
    boom 25 Lots perfect okay
  • 00:09:48
    that is going to be our set lot size
  • 00:09:51
    and you're probably saying well that
  • 00:09:52
    doesn't make any sense well it does
  • 00:09:56
    because that
  • 00:09:58
    that means I'm going to be risking one
  • 00:10:00
    percent
  • 00:10:02
    if price hits stop right here
  • 00:10:05
    that also means
  • 00:10:13
    I'll be risking
  • 00:10:17
    two percent of my account if price if we
  • 00:10:19
    have a larger stop loss and price goes
  • 00:10:21
    to eight points right let's let's say
  • 00:10:23
    for one day we have a really large stop
  • 00:10:26
    and it's an eight and it's an 800 pip an
  • 00:10:29
    eight point stop loss
  • 00:10:32
    that is two times
  • 00:10:34
    my regular one percent risk
  • 00:10:36
    so even if I have to have a larger stop
  • 00:10:40
    loss
  • 00:10:41
    it won't matter
  • 00:10:43
    or it will matter I'll be risking two
  • 00:10:45
    percent instead of one percent but since
  • 00:10:47
    I'm on a live account I don't really
  • 00:10:48
    care too much about percents because I
  • 00:10:50
    just have that set loss size so it makes
  • 00:10:52
    it super easy for me where I can just go
  • 00:10:54
    boom plug it in enter the trade every
  • 00:10:57
    single time because I know okay what
  • 00:10:59
    happens if we have
  • 00:11:02
    boom price all the way down here cool
  • 00:11:04
    I'm risking three percent of my account
  • 00:11:07
    okay this is why I like this so good
  • 00:11:09
    because I have a great feel of what my
  • 00:11:12
    average stop loss is going to be so I
  • 00:11:14
    have a good good idea of like hey I'm
  • 00:11:16
    probably going to be risking this much
  • 00:11:18
    today
  • 00:11:19
    and if it goes 2x that
  • 00:11:22
    cool I'll be risking two percent and if
  • 00:11:24
    it goes 3x that cool I'll be risking
  • 00:11:26
    three percent most of the time it never
  • 00:11:28
    goes to three percent risk which is why
  • 00:11:32
    I like using set
  • 00:11:34
    stop loss
  • 00:11:35
    okay and something to keep in mind your
  • 00:11:39
    set stop loss is going to be different
  • 00:11:40
    for every single pair so that's
  • 00:11:42
    something you have to figure out and if
  • 00:11:44
    anything you guys should only be trading
  • 00:11:45
    one pair right now anyways but okay keep
  • 00:11:49
    that in mind understand that every pair
  • 00:11:51
    is different every pair of stop loss is
  • 00:11:53
    going to be wider smaller based on the
  • 00:11:55
    volatility and the volume okay so
  • 00:11:57
    understand that
  • 00:11:58
    okay so that's how you do set lot size
  • 00:12:01
    all right
  • 00:12:03
    for me now now we'll get into like my
  • 00:12:06
    tricky stuff you guys should not do this
  • 00:12:08
    because you guys aren't even profitable
  • 00:12:10
    yet turn profitable calculating lot size
  • 00:12:13
    or using a cent lot size then come back
  • 00:12:15
    to this and you know once you get a
  • 00:12:18
    better feel for the market okay but this
  • 00:12:20
    is what I do
  • 00:12:22
    okay so I have my
  • 00:12:28
    let's just say we used
  • 00:12:30
    um this one what did it give us 25 okay
  • 00:12:32
    boom normal risk
  • 00:12:39
    25 blocks oops
  • 00:12:42
    my normal risk is 25 watts right because
  • 00:12:44
    that's saying like Okay I'm okay risking
  • 00:12:46
    this because like this that's a normal
  • 00:12:49
    risk day okay
  • 00:12:52
    what's the second option d-risk
  • 00:12:54
    my dearest day
  • 00:12:57
    50 of my normal okay
  • 00:13:00
    so that means like if we have high
  • 00:13:02
    impact news if we have to wait for news
  • 00:13:04
    to come out if there's like today this
  • 00:13:07
    is or sorry yesterday I use my D risk
  • 00:13:10
    lot size because I knew hey we had high
  • 00:13:12
    impact news and today is the Fourth of
  • 00:13:14
    July meaning it's a bank holiday price
  • 00:13:16
    is probably going to be trash
  • 00:13:19
    okay super super simple
  • 00:13:22
    okay normal normal risk would be on like
  • 00:13:25
    a day with no news a day with like news
  • 00:13:27
    that won't really affect the market that
  • 00:13:28
    much d-risk will be high impact news or
  • 00:13:31
    like you know there's like something
  • 00:13:32
    that I understand that will probably
  • 00:13:34
    mess up the market so even if I'm like
  • 00:13:36
    looking for a trade if I do end up
  • 00:13:38
    taking a trade on that day I'll use my d
  • 00:13:40
    wrist lot size and then
  • 00:13:43
    we have the
  • 00:13:47
    confident
  • 00:13:49
    lot size
  • 00:13:53
    which is I double it okay so that pretty
  • 00:13:56
    much is putting me at risk to starting
  • 00:13:59
    off at two percent potential to go to
  • 00:14:01
    four percent and then potential to even
  • 00:14:03
    go to up to what even would it be uh
  • 00:14:07
    what six percent or eight percent I
  • 00:14:10
    don't even know I'm tired okay but even
  • 00:14:14
    then that's that's like that's like on a
  • 00:14:17
    day with like no news I love the setup
  • 00:14:19
    it's like all the biases are in line and
  • 00:14:22
    that's what I'm doing you guys should
  • 00:14:25
    never use this ever because you guys
  • 00:14:27
    should never you guys don't have the
  • 00:14:30
    confidence built up
  • 00:14:32
    to use this again you guys should not be
  • 00:14:34
    doing this but I'm putting this out here
  • 00:14:35
    because I know I'll get karma I want to
  • 00:14:37
    say yes okay so shut up all right this
  • 00:14:39
    is it all right
  • 00:14:42
    my normal risk is just one percent it's
  • 00:14:44
    it's showing you it's the set lot size
  • 00:14:47
    okay that I would use that's the normal
  • 00:14:49
    risk d-risk is 50 of it confident is two
  • 00:14:52
    times it
  • 00:14:54
    simple as that you guys should never use
  • 00:14:56
    a confident lot size
  • 00:14:58
    you guys feel free to use normal or
  • 00:15:00
    de-risk never use confident because you
  • 00:15:03
    guys don't you guys don't have proof in
  • 00:15:06
    the market that you guys are con that
  • 00:15:08
    you guys have the ability to be
  • 00:15:09
    confident
  • 00:15:10
    like as sad as that sounds you guys
  • 00:15:12
    don't have that
  • 00:15:13
    so let's be realistic with each other
  • 00:15:15
    okay so there you go that's how you
  • 00:15:18
    calculate lot size hopefully you guys
  • 00:15:19
    enjoyed this and you guys tomorrow when
  • 00:15:22
    we do a trade recap and for the other
