Trading, light positions are fine, heavy positions are also okay
When trading, capital management has always been an important aspect.
Many people emphasize light positions, saying it can reduce risk; while many others emphasize heavy positions, claiming that one must seize opportunities, which cannot be achieved with light positions.
So, should it be light positions or heavy positions?
Actually, this can be considered from several aspects:
First, your level of ability. If you are very skilled at entering the market and can often get in at the explosive point of the market, then you should seize the opportunity to take heavy positions.
If your entry ability is weak, then light positions are definitely better, with wider stop losses being more beneficial; otherwise, you will repeatedly hit stop losses.
Second, the size of your desire. If your desire is large, your position should definitely be heavier; if your desire is small, your position should be lighter.
Third, your risk tolerance. For a single trade, how much of a loss can you accept? If you have a high tolerance, your position will definitely be larger; if you cannot accept a large drawdown, your position will definitely be smaller.
Therefore, whether to take heavy or light positions depends on personal factors such as ability, desire, and risk tolerance matching levels. What suits you best is the best; what works for others may not necessarily work for you.
