Why do 90% of traders fail? It's not because they pick bad stocks—it's because they ignore basic risk management rules. In this beginner-friendly episode, I teach you the 5 iron rules that professional traders follow to survive and thrive in the stock market.

Here's what you'll learn:
✅ Rule 1: The 50% Rule – Never use more than 50-60% of your account (always keep cash in reserve)
✅ Rule 2: The 20% Rule – Never put more than 20% of your money in one stock (diversify or die)
✅ Rule 3: The Duration Rule – Only sell options that expire in 7-21 days (avoid long-dated options—they're dangerous)
✅ Rule 4: The Roll Rule – Close or roll any options beyond 21 days (don't let old positions blow up your account)
✅ Rule 5: The War Chest Rule – Keep cash ready to buy when the market crashes (use SGOV or BOX to earn interest while you wait)

Bonus Tips:

The 75% profit rule: Close your trade early if it's up 75% fast (don't get greedy)
Why SPX and XSP save you money on taxes (Section 1256 explained simply)
How to use AI (like Claude or Gemini) to check if you're following these rules
Real Example: In March 2026, I sold SPX puts and made $4,500 in premium. The next day, the market rallied and I was up 50%—but I didn't close it (and I should have). Learn from my mistake.

These rules won't guarantee profits, but they WILL keep you alive. And in trading, survival is everything.
