Risk & Exits

How do you scale risk as your account grows?

2 Nov 2026 · Edited from Martin’s stream; not a verbatim quotation.

I scale my risk more slowly than my account grows. If the account gains 50%, for example, I might increase the risk by 25% or less. That leaves a buffer for a future drawdown and helps me avoid becoming oversized. Those numbers are an example of the approach, not a fixed formula.
