Lesson 04 · 9 min
Dynamic position sizing.
Your risk can remain constant even when the market changes. Position size is the variable that makes that possible.
Risk budget1R
Tighter stopLarger size
Wider stopSmaller size
The principle
Strong execution separates the amount you are willing to lose from the number of units you trade. A wider invalidation point should reduce position size. A tighter invalidation point can increase it. Your capital at risk remains intentional.
Mastery connection
This lesson develops Position Sizing → Risk-normalised execution. You will demonstrate the skill in the next practice scenario.
Try the reasoning first
A trade setup requires a stop twice as wide as your previous setup. Assuming the same monetary risk budget, what should happen to your position size?
NextPractice: Changing conditions
Deliberate practice
Adaptive engine · Vision PreviewPractice the judgement, not the quiz.
Techne should create the conditions for capability to develop through repeated application and meaningful feedback.
Adaptive practice · Scenario 1 of 3
Position Sizing · 67Conditions changed. What changes with them?
Scenario
You planned a long setup with a £100 risk budget and a 20-point stop. Before entry, volatility expands and the technically valid stop now needs to be 40 points away.
What is the strongest response?Practice modes
Different skills demand different practice.
Scenario
Judgement under realistic constraints and changing context.
Simulation
Interactive environments where choices create consequences.
Production
Create something observable that demonstrates the capability.
Reflection
Make thinking visible so feedback can improve future decisions.

Your technical reasoning is becoming more consistent. The next step is learning to preserve risk discipline when a setup changes after you've emotionally committed to it.

The position-sizing drill finally clicked after I stopped thinking in lots and started thinking in risk units.
Does anyone have a good rule for when a technically valid setup still should not be taken because of context?
Shared my journal template in Resources. It maps every trade back to the competencies in this pathway.
