درێژ EURUSD and کورت USDJPY may feel like two trades. They are functionally one bet on the dollar. Correlation collapses your effective diversification when تۆ most need it.

Exposure budgeting

Set a maximum portfolio risk (e.g. 3% of equity at any time). Allocate within that budget by correlation cluster — currencies, ئەندێکسەکان, metals — so a regime shift doesn't take down all your positions at once.

The simplest fix

Before opening a نوێ position, ask: if my کردنەوە trades all hit stop simultaneously, what's my کۆی گشتی drawdown? If the answer is زیاتر than your ڕۆژانە loss limit, the position size is wrong.
