Stock Money Management Guidelines
Rules for managing money in index trading should be part of how you trade, because these rules will help you control risk. This means using two money management rules: the risk to reward comparison and a way to lower losses when you trade, to decide how much to invest. The most common money rule for indices, which you should also use, says a stock index trader should not risk more than 2% of their money on one trade.
To learn about these two indices money management rules traders should read the money management tutorial that's on the learn lessons section of this website under the trading key concepts lessons.
Index Psychology Mindset
If you want to make it in trading, you have to understand how your mind works - especially when it comes to indices. The right mindset means you steer clear of fear and greed. Discipline is everything. You stick to your strategy and only make a move when your system gives you a clear signal. No second-guessing. No jumping in just because the market's moving up or down. A disciplined trader waits, follows the plan, and doesn't let emotions call the shots.
A trader seeking to deepen their understanding of indices psychology and emotional control during market participation can review the trading psychology tutorials available in the learn lessons area, filed under the trading key concepts courses on this site.
