$5 risk per share.

So overall, I can purchase 40 shares.

And that's your position size.

And when you apply that math across every single position that you're in, no one trade will keep you up at night because you know the maximum amount.

you'll lose is $200 on that trade.

And it allows you to diversify as well.

And then to your point, Louise, if you have, you know, 10 trades at $200 risk, that's $2,000.

It's about 20% risk on a $10,000 portfolio.

So again, it really depends on what your risk tolerance is.

Yes, this was maybe 15 years ago.

It was fairly early on in my trading career.

And I remember my trading coach, he did warn me, but I didn't listen to him because I figured it's my account.

I'm going to manage it.

So this is what happened.

So I was trading stock options and they were all monthly contracts.

So it's basically the third Friday of the month determined my entire month, my performance.

So at that time, I had 10 trades on and they were primarily concentrated in two sectors.

And going into that last week and I would hold my positions probably four to five weeks.

So I'm holding on.

My portfolio is looking good.
