+## Risk Management Frameworks
+
+### The 1% Rule (Recommended for Most Traders)
+**Never risk more than 1% of account on single trade**
+
+**Example:**
+- Account size: $50,000
+- Maximum risk per trade: $500 (1%)
+- Stock entry: $100
+- Stop-loss: $98
+- Risk per share: $2
+- Position size: $500 / $2 = 250 shares
+- Total position: $25,000 (50% of account)
+- Actual risk: $500 (1% of account)
+
+**Benefits:**
+- Can survive 20+ consecutive losses
+- Removes emotion from sizing
+- Consistent risk across trades
+- Protects capital
+
+### The 2R Minimum Rule
+**Only take trades with 2:1 reward-to-risk or better**
+
+**Example:**
+- Entry: $100
+- Stop: $98 (risk = $2)
+- Target: $104 (reward = $4)
+- R:R = 2:1 ✅
+
+**Why it matters:**
+- Can be profitable with 40% win rate
+- Forces selective trading
+- Improves overall edge
+
+### Maximum Drawdown Limit
+**Hard stop trading if down X% from peak**
+
+**Recommendations:**
+- Conservative: 10% drawdown → stop trading
+- Moderate: 15% drawdown → stop trading
+- Aggressive: 20% drawdown → stop trading
+
+**When hit:**
+1. Stop trading immediately
+2. Review all trades
+3. Identify mistakes
+4. Paper trade until recovered mentally
+5. Resume with reduced size
+

+
+## Position Sizing Formulas
+
+### Fixed Dollar Risk
+```
+Position Size = Account Risk $ / (Entry - Stop)
+
+Example:
+- Account: $50,000
+- Risk per trade: $500 (1%)
+- Entry: $100
+- Stop: $97
+- Risk per share: $3
+- Shares: $500 / $3 = 166 shares
+```
+
+### Fixed Percentage Risk
+```
+Position Size = (Account × Risk %) / (Entry - Stop)
+
+Example:
+- Account: $50,000
+- Risk: 1%
+- Entry: $50
+- Stop: $48
+- Risk per share: $2
+- Shares: ($50,000 × 0.01) / $2 = 250 shares
+```
+
+### Kelly Criterion (Advanced)
+```
+Position Size % = (Win Rate × Avg Win - Loss Rate × Avg Loss) / Avg Win
+
+Example:
+- Win rate: 55%
+- Avg win: $500
+- Loss rate: 45%
+- Avg loss: $300
+- Kelly: (0.55 × $500 - 0.45 × $300) / $500 = 28%
+- Use 1/4 Kelly = 7% position size (conservative)
+```
+
+**Warning:** Kelly can be aggressive, use fractional Kelly
+
