Think your money is always “at risk”? Use a 3:1 risk-reward ratio: set a profit target 3x larger than your stop loss. I call it a wonderfully lopsided risk-reward. With 3R targets, you can be wrong 7 out of 10 trades and still be profitable—because your expectancy is positive.
Quick math:
30% win rate at 3R → 0.3×3 − 0.7×1 = +0.2R per trade (profitable over time).
Do this
• Define your stop loss first, then set profit target = 3× risk
• Size positions from risk per trade (e.g., 0.5–1%)
• Track 20–30 trades to confirm positive expectancy

ASK TODD: How has trading evolved since you started 25 years ago?
3 tips for new traders. Watch this video:
Options trading isn’t Vegas. If you’re chasing the next big win, doubling down after a loss, or making trades because you “just have a feeling," that’s not trading. That’s gambling. 🎲
And gamblers don’t last in this business.
The market rewards discipline and consistency, not adrenaline. If your approach is fueled by impulse, you’ll be lucky to survive a month.
Before you place your next trade, ask yourself: Am I following my plan, or rolling the dice?

The difference between me and most traders?
I don’t fear losing money.
That’s not because I’m reckless. It’s because I treat money like a tool, not something to be emotionally attached to.
Most traders cling to their trades because they can’t handle the thought of loss. That attachment leads to bad decisions: ignoring stops, moving targets, or revenge trading.
The irony is, when you remove fear, you actually protect your capital better — because you make decisions based on rules, not emotions.
If you can’t look at money as just a tool, the market will use that against you.

The most underrated trait in trading success? It’s not IQ.
It’s emotional detachment from any single trade.
When you care more about following your rules than the dollars tied to one click, everything changes.
When your risk is defined, position size is right, stop is in, and plan is set, your nerves quiet down and ex*****on becomes cleaner and more consistent.
In this video, I break down why detachment beats bravado and how to start building it the right way as a trader.

My trading in 5 lines (screenshot this).
1. Spot the setup.
2. Qualify it against rules—no rule, no trade.
3. Enter with a predefined stop/target.
4. Manage position; don’t manage feelings.
5. Exit where you said you would—either stop or target.
If your plan can’t fit on a note card, it won’t fit inside a volatile day.
