How to improve your trading in 300 or 600 days,
not in 30 or 60 days as profitability needs time, conviction, practice, discipline.
Most traders don't need another indicator or another stock tip. They need rules they can actually follow.
1. Trade only one setup
Choose one setup you understand deeply. Don't take trades outside your system just because they look attractive.
2. Define your risk before every trade
Risk only 0.25–1% of portfolio capital per trade.
Position size should be calculated from the stop-loss—not from how much money you want to invest.
3. Trade with the market trend
For positional trading, take aggressive long trades only when the broader market is in an uptrend.
Reduce exposure when the market becomes weak or choppy.
4. Have a predefined entry, SL and exit rule
Before entering, know:
Where will I buy?
Where am I wrong?
How much will I lose if I'm wrong? thats your RPT
When will I book/raise the stop?
5. Review every trade
Maintain a trading journal. Review winning and losing trades every week/month.
Look for repeated mistakes, not individual outcomes.
6. Stop trading on other people's opinions
Tips, X posts, Telegram calls and YouTube views can generate ideas.
They should never replace your own process.
7. Focus on execution, not daily profits
Don't set a target like "I must make ₹10,000 today."
Your goal is to execute your system correctly. Profit is the outcome.
8. Increase risk only after consistency
Don't increase position size because of a few winning trades. Increase it gradually only after you have demonstrated consistent execution and controlled drawdowns.
Regularly following the discipline can change your trading more than 30 new indicators.
Simple process = proper position sizing + risk management + patience = survival first, consistency next, compounding eventually.
