Client notes on risk training

I had been cutting winners early because my size felt random. After the intensive I map risk in pounds before I open the platform, and the evening sessions made that habit stick.

The chart clinic was useful, though I wished we had another hour on FX session overlaps. Still, the position-size worksheet alone paid for the booking.

Nathan walked three of my correlated FTSE and EURUSD ideas and showed I was stacking the same risk three times. We cut my concurrent exposure rule the same afternoon.

I booked the ATR evening after blowing through a weekly loss cap in January. The session itself was calm — almost quiet — and that matched how I needed to rethink size after a bad week.

Brought messy screenshots and left with a one-page risk policy my partner could also understand. That domestic clarity mattered more than another indicator lecture would have.

Client story: rebuilding size after a clustered drawdown

A Birmingham-based swing trader arrived at mentoring with four open equity positions, each sized at roughly the same share count. Two of the names moved with the same sector beta. On paper each trade risked 1%; together they risked closer to 3% on a single news day.

Over two sixty-minute sessions we rebuilt stops from weekly swing lows, converted each distance into pounds, and capped concurrent sector risk at 1.5%. The trader did not change strategy — only the arithmetic that decides how many shares leave the order ticket. Six weeks later they reported smaller individual sizes and fewer overlapping sector bets, with the same weekly trade count.
