Start with the core concepts.
What Is a Pip and a Point in Trading?
A pip is the smallest standard price change in a forex pair. Points are broker-specific sub-divisions. Here's how both actually work in practice.
What Is Leverage in Trading?
Leverage lets you control a large position with a small amount of capital. It multiplies gains and losses equally. Here's the math that actually matters.
What Is Drawdown in Trading?
Drawdown is the fall from a peak in your account to the next low. How to measure it, why deep drawdowns are hard to recover, and how prop firms use it.
What Is Margin and Margin Call?
Margin is the collateral your broker holds against leveraged positions, and a margin call is what happens when it runs short. How the mechanic works.
What Is Position Sizing in Trading?
Position sizing sets trade size from your risk, not your conviction. The formula, a worked example, and why it is the most important risk decision.
What Is Risk/Reward in Trading?
The risk/reward ratio compares what you risk against what you aim to gain. How to calculate it, why win rate matters, and how it drives expectancy.
