How position sizing works

Proper position sizing protects your capital.

Risk only 1-2% of your account per trade. If you have $10,000 and risk 1%, you can lose $100 per trade. Your stop loss in pips determines how many lots you can open: smaller stops allow larger positions; larger stops require smaller positions.
