Trade like a professional

The BritFX trading routine

  1. 01Step 1

    Plan

    Mark key levels on H4/D1, check the news calendar and decide which pairs you'll watch.

  2. 02Step 2

    Execute

    Wait for your indicator signal, confirm the trend and place the trade with a stop loss.

  3. 03Step 3

    Review

    Journal every trade: entry reason, result and what you'd do differently.

  4. 04Step 4

    Grow

    Increase size only when your results are consistent. Protect capital first.

Risk management

The rules we trade by

Risk 1–2% per trade

Never risk more than a small percentage of your account on a single idea.

Always use a stop loss

Decide where you're wrong before you enter — and never move the stop further away.

Respect leverage

Leverage magnifies losses as much as gains. Use position sizes that fit your account.

Questions

Trading FAQ

Forex and CFDs are leveraged products and carry a high risk of losing money. Past performance is not a guide to future results. Make sure you understand the risks before trading.
