Is your stop loss helping you—or hurting you? The textbook says “set it and forget it,” but real-world trading isn’t always that simple.

In this episode, I explore alternative ways to manage risk: scaling out, discretionary cuts, wide circuit-breaker stops, and active intraday adjustments.

If you’ve ever felt like tight stops kill good trades—or wide stops dig bigger holes—this discussion will help you rethink how you manage risk in dynamic markets.

You’re in a winning trade. Price is moving in your favour.

The temptation to add size kicks in… but one wrong move and that green trade turns red — fast.

In this episode, I break down the art and science of scaling into a winner:

• Why adding can supercharge your P&L — or destroy a solid trade
• How to avoid emotional adds that wreck your average entry
• Frameworks for adding with structure and discipline
• The psychological traps traders fall into when scaling mid-trade
• When to treat adds as separate trades — and when to wrap them in

If you’re looking to build size like a sniper — not a gambler — this episode is for you.

Most traders know they should walk away on a red day…

But when they’re in it? Logic disappears.

• Why the hardest decision in trading is often to stop
• The mental traps that keep you glued to the screen

• And why protecting your capital is only half the battle — the real risk is your mental state
