50 RULES OF
PROFESSIONAL
TRADING
The Non-NegotiableRules That Separate
Winners from Everyone Else

Most traders don’t fail because they lack strategy. They fail because they lack rules they actually follow when it matters most. This book is not about setups, indicators, or predictions. It is about risk enforcement, discipline, and capital preservation — the foundations that professional traders treat as non-negotiable.
WHAT THIS BOOK FOCUSES ON:
-
Risk control before profit seeking
-
Decision-making when capital is at risk
-
Preventing account-ending losses
-
Eliminating emotional overrides in live trading
​
These are the rules professionals use to stay in the game, long before they think about outperforming it.
What Makes This Book Different And why These Rules Matter
Retail trading education focuses almost exclusively on entries.
Professionals focus on what can go wrong — and how to stop it before it does. This book addresses:
-
Why discipline collapses when it is needed the most
-
Why “one bad trade” is almost never just one
-
Why risk must be enforced, not negotiated.
-
Why consistency comes from structure, not confidence or motivation​



The Book Structure: Inside the book, the 50 rules are short, direct, and uncompromising. Each rule exists because violating it eventually destroys accounts. You won’t find motivational speeches, vague psychology advice, or feel-good affirmations. Instead, you will find clear boundaries, hard limits, and rules designed to protect capital first.

Who Is This Book For? This book is for you if you already trade but struggle with consistency. You know what to do, but don’t always follow it. You want rules that hold up under stress. You care more about survival than ego. This book is NOT for you if you’re looking for a magic trading strategy, or you want signals, or shortcuts, or if you believe discipline is optional.

How Does This Book Fit With
"Why Traders Fail"?
"Why Traders Fail" explains why the game works against most participants. "50 Rules of Professional Trading" gives you the rules required to survive within that reality. They are designed to be read together, not separately.
