Trading Psychology Drills
Rules as of 3 Nov 2026. Tick each line before your next session.
1. After a big loss or win
- Decide your reaction to a loss, a big win and a missed trade before the session starts.
- Stop for the day at roughly half the daily loss limit, then close the platform.
- Keep risk per trade unchanged after a strong week; profit is not extra room.
2. Pace to the profit target
- Target ÷ daily average = trading days. Pick an average you can repeat, not your best day.
- The 1-Step and 2-Step have no time limit, so speed buys you nothing.
- Keep the same size near the target; most challenges are lost in the last week.
3. Stop revenge trading
- Revenge trading is raising risk to recover a loss; it turns a bad day into a breach.
- Use three circuit breakers: a personal daily stop, a cooldown, and fixed size.
- At 0.5% risk you can absorb many losses; at 2% only a couple fit under the daily limit.
4. Pre-market routine
- Write today’s daily floor in dollars before you look at a chart.
- Mark high-impact news times; the 1-Step, 2-Step and Instant Funded have a news window.
- Decide your maximum number of trades and your personal stop before the open.
5. Your trading journal
- Log the plan before the trade and the result after it; the gap between them is the lesson.
- Measure results in R (multiples of risk) so different sizes compare fairly.
- Track your best-day share so the consistency rule never surprises you at payout.

“Traders shouldn’t have to beg for capital or guess the rules. So every MyFundedCapital program has its own rulebook, and you can read it before you pay. We ask one question: can you manage risk? If you can, you’re welcome here. If a rule ever feels unclear, that’s ours to fix.”
