Money Management is everything

I tried this, to make my SL reason just as well-formed as the TP reason, and the higher probability reason to TP. It eloquently removes (simulator) margin calls. Though I make much less, I don't care, because I know much more about what's going on, ...

Mental health and trading: should I pack it in?
