Your Personal Accountability System for Trading Success

The Uncomfortable Truth About Tracking

Most traders avoid tracking their performance because they don’t want to confront the reality of their results. This avoidance is precisely why 99% of traders fail.

If you’re not tracking your performance, you’re not serious about trading success.

The traders who consistently profit are the ones who face their results honestly, learn from their mistakes, and hold themselves accountable to measurable standards. This guide will show you how to become one of them.

Why Performance Tracking Is Non-Negotiable

Harsh Realities:

• You can’t improve what you don’t measure
• Memory lies – You’ll remember wins and forget losses
• Emotions distort reality – Good feelings aren’t the same as good results
• EPIC AI provides signals, but YOU execute them – Your results depend on your discipline

What Tracking Reveals:

• Which signals you’re actually following vs. ignoring
• How your position sizing affects your results
• When you’re deviating from the system
• Whether your success is skill or luck
• Your real win rate vs. your perceived performance

Essential Tracking Categories

1. Signal Execution Tracking

For Each EPIC Signal, Record:

• Date/Time: When the signal was posted
• Instrument: Which market (Stocks, Nasdaq, Oil, Crypto)
• Signal Type: Buy/Sell/Trim
• Recommended Size: What EPIC suggested
• Your Actual Size: What you actually traded
• Execution Price: Your actual fill price
• Execution Time: How long after signal you executed
• Reason for Deviation: If you varied from the signal

Critical Questions to Answer:

• Are you following signals exactly as provided?
• How quickly are you executing after signals?
• Are you sizing positions correctly?

2. Financial Performance Tracking

Daily Tracking:

• Starting Account Balance
• Ending Account Balance
• Daily P&L (Profit/Loss)
• Percentage Change
• Cumulative Return

Weekly Tracking:

• Weekly P&L
• Best Performing Instrument
• Worst Performing Instrument
• Number of Trades Executed
• Win Rate Percentage

Monthly Tracking:

• Monthly P&L
• Average Daily Return
• Maximum Drawdown
• Sharpe Ratio (if you understand it)
• Comparison to EPIC Dashboard

3. Discipline & Psychology Tracking

Weekly Self-Assessment (Rate 1-10):

• Signal Adherence: How well did you follow EPIC signals?
• Position Sizing Discipline: Did you size trades correctly?
• Emotional Control: How well did you manage fear/greed?
• Patience Level: Did you wait for proper setups?

Mistake Log:

• Date of Mistake
• Type of Mistake (oversizing, late execution, ignoring signal, etc.)

There is no middle ground in trading success.

Monthly Accountability Questions

Ask yourself these questions honestly every month:

1. Am I following EPIC signals exactly as provided?
2. Is my win rate above 85%? If not, why?
3. Am I sizing positions correctly according to the system?
4. How quickly am I executing signals after they’re posted?
5. What is costing me the most money – missed signals or poor execution?
6. Am I improving month over month?
7. If EPIC’s dashboard shows better performance than mine, what am I doing wrong?
8. Am I treating this like a business or a hobby?

Guide for EPIC Oil Barons Telegram Subscribers

This guide is designed for EPIC Oil Barons Telegram subscribers to follow crude oil futures trading signals from EPIC AI using either CFDs (Contracts for Difference) or crude oil futures contracts (CL/MCL) on platforms like MetaTrader, IG, eToro, or futures brokers (e.g., Interactive Brokers, NinjaTrader). It provides a simple, intuitive position sizing calculation for CFD users and a straightforward account ratio method for CL/MCL futures users, based on your account size and maximum tolerable drawdown for a trading sequence. Tailored for beginners, it incorporates EPIC AI’s dynamic risk management and includes a clear disclaimer about trading risks.

Key Concepts Made Simple

What Are Oil Futures and CFDs?

Oil Futures (CL/MCL):

• CL: Standard crude oil futures contract (1,000 barrels), larger size
• MCL: Micro crude oil futures contract (100 barrels), 1/10th the size of CL, ideal for smaller accounts
• EPIC AI assumes access to 100 futures contracts (CL or equivalent MCL) in your account, with built-in 15x leverage, amplifying gains and losses

CFDs: You trade crude oil price movements on CFD platforms in small units (e.g., 0.1), without owning futures contracts, making sizing flexible. CFDs often allow higher leverage, but we focus on matching your risk to EPIC’s strategy.

Understanding Drawdowns and Risk in Sequences

• Drawdown: The potential loss in your account if a trading sequence (multiple buys/sells) goes against you
• EPIC AI’s Trading Style: EPIC AI trades in sequences, with multiple buys and sells to achieve a profitable outcome. The maximum drawdown per sequence is approximately 15-18% of your account if trading the full 100 futures contracts at 15x leverage
• Your Risk Tolerance: Choose your personal maximum drawdown per sequence (e.g., 15% like EPIC AI, or 20% for more risk). This determines your position size for all trades in a sequence
• Individual trades within a sequence don’t have fixed risk; the entire sequence risks up to your chosen maximum drawdown

EPIC AI Signals

• EPIC AI trades in groups of 9 contracts, which is 10% of the maximum 100 contracts
• CFD Users: Trade a portion of your account, sized to match your sequence drawdown tolerance, in CFD units
• CL/MCL Futures Users: Adjust your total available contracts to the nearest multiple of 11 (e.g., 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66) and trade the corresponding number of contracts for each 9-contract signal (e.g., 1 contract if you have 11, 2 if you have 22, etc.)
• As your account grows, adjust your position size (CFDs) or contract allocation (CL/MCL) proportionally

Stop Losses with EPIC AI

EPIC AI’s Approach: EPIC AI does not use hard stop losses. It dynamically manages risk based on the real-time probability of a sequence being profitable, adjusting trades within the sequence.

Your Approach:

• If matching EPIC’s 15% drawdown: Follow their signals without hard stop losses, relying on their dynamic risk management
• If using a higher drawdown (e.g., 20%): Consider a hard stop loss (e.g., 2-3% of your account per trade) to protect against large losses in volatile markets, especially for CFD users or larger CL/MCL positions

Position Sizing for CFD and CL/MCL Users

For CFD Users

Use this intuitive formula to calculate your trade size in CFD units for a 9-contract signal, mimicking EPIC AI’s 15x leverage and 15-18% drawdown per sequence, adjusted for your personal drawdown tolerance.

Step 1: Define Your Account and Drawdown Tolerance

• Account Balance: Your total trading account (e.g., $10,000)
• Maximum Tolerable Drawdown per Sequence: The largest loss you’re comfortable with for a sequence (e.g., 15% like EPIC AI, or 20% for more risk)
• Stop Loss Decision: If your drawdown exceeds 15%, consider a hard stop loss (e.g., 2-3% of your account, or $200-$300 on a $10,000 account) per trade

Step 2: Calculate Your Position Size

Formula:

Trade Size (in CFD units) = (Account Balance × 15 × 0.1 × Your Drawdown Multiplier) ÷ Oil Price

Where:

• Account Balance: Your total trading account (e.g., $10,000)
• 15: EPIC AI’s leverage (built into futures)
• 0.1: EPIC AI’s 9 contracts is 10% of the maximum 100 contracts (0.1 = 10%)
• Your Drawdown Multiplier: Your max tolerable drawdown divided by EPIC’s 15% drawdown (e.g., for 20% drawdown, multiplier = 20 ÷ 15 = 1.33)
• Oil Price: The current crude oil price per barrel (e.g., $70.00). Check your platform
• Round to the nearest 0.1 (CFD platform’s minimum unit)

How It Works

• Maximum Deployed Amount: Account Balance × 15 = total dollars you could control at 15x leverage (e.g., $10,000 × 15 = $150,000)
• For 9 Contracts: Take 10% (× 0.1), so $150,000 × 0.1 = $15,000
• Adjust for Your Drawdown: Multiply by your drawdown multiplier (e.g., for 20% drawdown, × 1.33 = $19,950)
• Convert to CFD Units: Divide by Oil Price and round to 0.1

Example Calculation

• Account balance: $10,000
• Max drawdown per sequence: 20% (multiplier = 20 ÷ 15 = 1.33)
• Oil price: $70.00 per barrel

Trade Size = ($10,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 70

= ($150,000 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 70

= $19,950 ÷ 70

= 285.0 CFD units, rounded to 285.0 units

For each 9-contract signal, trade 285.0 CFD units. This aligns with a 20% maximum drawdown per sequence ($2,000).

Adjusting for Different Drawdowns

• 15% Drawdown (like EPIC AI): Multiplier = 15 ÷ 15 = 1
  • Trade Size = ($10,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 1) ÷ 70 = 214.3 units, rounded to 214.0 units
• 30% Drawdown: Multiplier = 30 ÷ 15 = 2
  • Trade Size = ($10,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 2) ÷ 70 = 428.6 units, rounded to 429.0 units

Stop Loss for CFDs

• 15% drawdown: Skip hard stop losses, follow EPIC’s dynamic risk management
• Higher drawdown (e.g., 20%): Set a hard stop loss (e.g., 2-3% of your account, or $200-$300) per trade

For CL/MCL Futures Users

Position sizing for CL/MCL futures is simpler: adjust your total available contracts to match EPIC AI’s 100-contract assumption, using multiples of 11.

Step 1: Set Up Your Account

• Determine your account size and the number of CL or MCL contracts you can trade, based on your broker’s margin requirements (e.g., ~$5,000-$7,000 per CL contract, ~$500-$700 per MCL contract)
• Adjust your total available contracts to the nearest multiple of 11 (e.g., 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66). For example, a $7,000 account might support 11 MCL contracts or 1 CL contract

Step 2: Calculate Your Trade Size

• EPIC AI assumes 100 contracts and trades 9 contracts per signal (10% of the maximum)
• For your account, trade 1 contract per 9-contract signal for every 11 contracts available:
  • 11 contracts: Trade 1 CL/MCL per 9-contract signal
  • 22 contracts: Trade 2 CL/MCL per 9-contract signal
  • 33 contracts: Trade 3 CL/MCL per 9-contract signal
  • And so on (e.g., 44 = 4, 55 = 5, 66 = 6)

Example

• Account: $7,000, supporting 11 MCL contracts (multiple of 11)
• EPIC AI Signal: “Buy 9 crude oil futures contracts”
• Action: Trade 1 MCL contract
• If your account grows to support 22 MCL contracts, trade 2 MCL contracts per 9-contract signal

Stop Loss for CL/MCL

• 15% drawdown: Follow EPIC’s dynamic risk management, no hard stop losses
• Higher drawdown (e.g., 20%): Consider a hard stop loss (e.g., 2-3% of your account, or $140-$210 on a $7,000 account) per trade to limit losses

Following EPIC AI Signals

Step 3: Execute Trades

• CFD Users: Trade your calculated trade size (e.g., 285.0 CFD units) for each 9-contract signal. Use a hard stop loss if your drawdown exceeds 15%
• CL/MCL Users: Trade the number of contracts corresponding to your account size (e.g., 1 MCL for 11 contracts, 2 MCL for 22 contracts) per 9-contract signal
• If EPIC AI signals “Close”, close your CFD or futures position with the same trade size
• Use the same trade size for all signals within a sequence

Step 4: Adjust as Your Account Grows

CFD Users: Recalculate your trade size as your account grows

• Example: With $15,000, 20% drawdown (multiplier = 1.33), oil at $70:
  • Trade Size = ($15,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 70 = 427.5 units, rounded to 428.0 units

CL/MCL Users: Adjust your total contracts to the next multiple of 11 as your account grows

• Example: If your account grows to $14,000, support 22 MCL contracts and trade 2 MCL per 9-contract signal

Key Risks to Understand

1. Sequence Drawdowns: A full sequence could lose up to your chosen maximum drawdown (e.g., 15% = $1,500 or 20% = $2,000 on a $10,000 account). Individual trades don’t cap losses; the sequence determines total risk
2. Overtrading: Don’t trade larger than your calculated trade size (CFDs) or allocated contracts (CL/MCL). Stay far below your platform’s maximum leverage
3. Market Volatility: Crude oil can move quickly and be influenced by geopolitical events, supply disruptions, and economic data. If using a higher drawdown, a hard stop loss limits extreme losses. If matching EPIC’s 15% drawdown, trust their dynamic adjustments
4. Platform Minimums: For CFDs, if your trade size is below 0.1 units, trade the minimum (0.1 units) or lower your drawdown tolerance. For CL/MCL, ensure your account supports at least 11 contracts

Trading Risk Disclaimer

⚠️ WARNING: Trading involves significant risk and can result in permanent losses of your entire account. CFDs and crude oil futures (CL/MCL), including following EPIC AI’s signals, carry a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage and market volatility. You could lose more than your initial investment, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Only trade with money you can afford to lose, and ensure you fully understand the risks involved. Consult a qualified financial adviser before trading, and never share personal or identifying information when seeking advice.

Practical Tips for Beginners

• Start Conservative: Use a 15% maximum drawdown per sequence (multiplier = 1 for CFDs, 11 contracts for CL/MCL) to match EPIC AI’s risk profile and avoid hard stop losses until confident
• Use a Demo Account: Practice with EPIC AI signals on your CFD or futures platform’s demo mode to test trade sizing and sequence trading
• Track Sequences: Log each sequence (trades, sizes, and outcomes) to monitor performance
• Stay Disciplined: Use the same trade size (CFDs) or contract number (CL/MCL) for all signals in a sequence, following EPIC AI exactly
• Recalculate Regularly: Update your trade size (CFDs) or contract allocation (CL/MCL) as your account balance or oil price changes
• Learn Your Platform: Know how to place trades, set stop losses (if needed), and check the crude oil price or futures margin requirements
• Monitor Oil News: Stay aware of major oil market events, OPEC decisions, and geopolitical developments that can cause sudden price movements

Example Trading Scenarios

CFD User Example

Setup:

• Account: $5,000
• Max Drawdown per Sequence: 20% (multiplier = 20 ÷ 15 = 1.33)
• Oil Price: $70.00
• Trade Size: ($5,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 70 = 142.5 units, rounded to 143.0 units
• Stop Loss: Consider a hard stop loss at 2% ($100) per trade since drawdown exceeds 15%

Trading:

1. EPIC AI Signal: “Buy 9 crude oil futures contracts” (part of a sequence)
2. Action: Buy 143.0 CFD units on your platform. Set a stop loss at $100 per trade. Repeat for all signals in the sequence
3. Outcome: If the sequence loses fully, you risk up to 20% ($1,000). If it wins, profits are proportional to 143.0 units per trade
4. Account Growth: If your account grows to $7,500, recalculate: ($7,500 × 15 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 70 = 214.3 units, rounded to 214.0 units

CL/MCL Futures User Example

Setup:

• Account: $7,000, supporting 11 MCL contracts (multiple of 11)
• Max Drawdown per Sequence: 15% (match EPIC AI, no hard stop loss)
• Trade Size: 1 MCL contract per 9-contract signal

Trading:

1. EPIC AI Signal: “Buy 9 crude oil futures contracts” (part of a sequence)
2. Action: Buy 1 MCL contract. Repeat for all signals in the sequence, no hard stop loss
3. Outcome: If the sequence loses fully, you risk up to 15% (~$1,050). If it wins, profits are proportional to 1 MCL contract per trade
4. Account Growth: If your account grows to $14,000, support 22 MCL contracts and trade 2 MCL contracts per 9-contract signal

Final Notes

• Stay Safe: Choose a maximum drawdown per sequence you’re comfortable with (e.g., 15-20%). Use hard stop losses only if your drawdown exceeds 15%. For CL/MCL, ensure your account supports at least 11 contracts

Guide for EPIC Nasdaq Mavericks Telegram Subscribers

This guide is designed for EPIC Nasdaq Mavericks Telegram subscribers to follow Nasdaq futures trading signals from EPIC AI using either CFDs (Contracts for Difference) or Nasdaq futures contracts (NQ/MNQ) on platforms like MetaTrader, IG, eToro, or futures brokers (e.g., Interactive Brokers, NinjaTrader). It provides a simple, intuitive position sizing calculation for CFD users and a straightforward account ratio method for NQ/MNQ futures users, based on your account size and maximum tolerable drawdown for a trading sequence. Tailored for beginners, it incorporates EPIC AI’s dynamic risk management and includes a clear disclaimer about trading risks.

Key Concepts Made Simple

What Are Nasdaq Futures and CFDs?

Nasdaq Futures (NQ/MNQ):

• NQ: Standard Nasdaq 100 futures contract, larger size
• MNQ: Micro Nasdaq 100 futures contract, 1/10th the size of NQ, ideal for smaller accounts
• EPIC AI assumes access to 100 futures contracts (NQ or equivalent MNQ) in your account, with built-in 15x leverage, amplifying gains and losses

CFDs: You trade Nasdaq price movements on CFD platforms in small units (e.g., 0.1), without owning futures contracts, making sizing flexible. CFDs often allow higher leverage, but we focus on matching your risk to EPIC’s strategy.

Understanding Drawdowns and Risk in Sequences

• Drawdown: The potential loss in your account if a trading sequence (multiple buys/sells) goes against you
• EPIC AI’s Trading Style: EPIC AI trades in sequences, with multiple buys and sells to achieve a profitable outcome. The maximum drawdown per sequence is approximately 15-18% of your account if trading the full 100 futures contracts at 15x leverage
• Your Risk Tolerance: Choose your personal maximum drawdown per sequence (e.g., 15% like EPIC AI, or 20% for more risk). This determines your position size for all trades in a sequence
• Individual trades within a sequence don’t have fixed risk; the entire sequence risks up to your chosen maximum drawdown

EPIC AI Signals

• EPIC AI trades in groups of 9 contracts, which is 10% of the maximum 100 contracts
• CFD Users: Trade a portion of your account, sized to match your sequence drawdown tolerance, in CFD units
• NQ/MNQ Futures Users: Adjust your total available contracts to the nearest multiple of 11 (e.g., 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66) and trade the corresponding number of contracts for each 9-contract signal (e.g., 1 contract if you have 11, 2 if you have 22, etc.)
• As your account grows, adjust your position size (CFDs) or contract allocation (NQ/MNQ) proportionally

Stop Losses with EPIC AI

EPIC AI’s Approach: EPIC AI does not use hard stop losses. It dynamically manages risk based on the real-time probability of a sequence being profitable, adjusting trades within the sequence.

Your Approach:

• If matching EPIC’s 15% drawdown: Follow their signals without hard stop losses, relying on their dynamic risk management
• If using a higher drawdown (e.g., 20%): Consider a hard stop loss (e.g., 2-3% of your account per trade) to protect against large losses in volatile markets, especially for CFD users or larger NQ/MNQ positions

Position Sizing for CFD and NQ/MNQ Users

For CFD Users

Use this intuitive formula to calculate your trade size in CFD units for a 9-contract signal, mimicking EPIC AI’s 15x leverage and 15-18% drawdown per sequence, adjusted for your personal drawdown tolerance.

Step 1: Define Your Account and Drawdown Tolerance

• Account Balance: Your total trading account (e.g., $10,000)
• Maximum Tolerable Drawdown per Sequence: The largest loss you’re comfortable with for a sequence (e.g., 15% like EPIC AI, or 20% for more risk)
• Stop Loss Decision: If your drawdown exceeds 15%, consider a hard stop loss (e.g., 2-3% of your account, or $200-$300 on a $10,000 account) per trade

Step 2: Calculate Your Position Size

Formula:

Trade Size (in CFD units) = (Account Balance × 15 × 0.1 × Your Drawdown Multiplier) ÷ Nasdaq Price

Where:

• Account Balance: Your total trading account (e.g., $10,000)
• 15: EPIC AI’s leverage (built into futures)
• 0.1: EPIC AI’s 9 contracts is 10% of the maximum 100 contracts (0.1 = 10%)
• Your Drawdown Multiplier: Your max tolerable drawdown divided by EPIC’s 15% drawdown (e.g., for 20% drawdown, multiplier = 20 ÷ 15 = 1.33)
• Nasdaq Price: The current Nasdaq 100 index price (e.g., 20,000 points). Check your platform
• Round to the nearest 0.1 (CFD platform’s minimum unit)

How It Works

• Maximum Deployed Amount: Account Balance × 15 = total dollars you could control at 15x leverage (e.g., $10,000 × 15 = $150,000)
• For 9 Contracts: Take 10% (× 0.1), so $150,000 × 0.1 = $15,000
• Adjust for Your Drawdown: Multiply by your drawdown multiplier (e.g., for 20% drawdown, × 1.33 = $19,950)
• Convert to CFD Units: Divide by Nasdaq Price and round to 0.1

Example Calculation

• Account balance: $10,000
• Max drawdown per sequence: 20% (multiplier = 20 ÷ 15 = 1.33)
• Nasdaq price: 20,000 points

Trade Size = ($10,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 20,000

= ($150,000 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 20,000

= $19,950 ÷ 20,000

= 0.9975 CFD units, rounded to 1.0 unit

For each 9-contract signal, trade 1.0 CFD unit. This aligns with a 20% maximum drawdown per sequence ($2,000).

Adjusting for Different Drawdowns

• 15% Drawdown (like EPIC AI): Multiplier = 15 ÷ 15 = 1
  • Trade Size = ($10,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 1) ÷ 20,000 = 0.75 units, rounded to 0.8 units
• 30% Drawdown: Multiplier = 30 ÷ 15 = 2
  • Trade Size = ($10,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 2) ÷ 20,000 = 1.5 units

Stop Loss for CFDs

• 15% drawdown: Skip hard stop losses, follow EPIC’s dynamic risk management
• Higher drawdown (e.g., 20%): Set a hard stop loss (e.g., 2-3% of your account, or $200-$300) per trade

For NQ/MNQ Futures Users

Position sizing for NQ/MNQ futures is simpler: adjust your total available contracts to match EPIC AI’s 100-contract assumption, using multiples of 11.

Step 1: Set Up Your Account

• Determine your account size and the number of NQ or MNQ contracts you can trade, based on your broker’s margin requirements (e.g., ~$17,000-$20,000 per NQ contract, ~$1,700-$2,000 per MNQ contract)
• Adjust your total available contracts to the nearest multiple of 11 (e.g., 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66). For example, a $22,000 account might support 11 MNQ contracts or 1 NQ contract

Step 2: Calculate Your Trade Size

• EPIC AI assumes 100 contracts and trades 9 contracts per signal (10% of the maximum)
• For your account, trade 1 contract per 9-contract signal for every 11 contracts available:
  • 11 contracts: Trade 1 NQ/MNQ per 9-contract signal
  • 22 contracts: Trade 2 NQ/MNQ per 9-contract signal
  • 33 contracts: Trade 3 NQ/MNQ per 9-contract signal
  • And so on (e.g., 44 = 4, 55 = 5, 66 = 6)

Example

• Account: $22,000, supporting 11 MNQ contracts (multiple of 11)
• EPIC AI Signal: “Buy 9 Nasdaq futures contracts”
• Action: Trade 1 MNQ contract
• If your account grows to support 22 MNQ contracts, trade 2 MNQ contracts per 9-contract signal

Stop Loss for NQ/MNQ

• 15% drawdown: Follow EPIC’s dynamic risk management, no hard stop losses
• Higher drawdown (e.g., 20%): Consider a hard stop loss (e.g., 2-3% of your account, or $440-$660 on a $22,000 account) per trade to limit losses

Following EPIC AI Signals

Step 3: Execute Trades

• CFD Users: Trade your calculated trade size (e.g., 1.0 CFD unit) for each 9-contract signal. Use a hard stop loss if your drawdown exceeds 15%
• NQ/MNQ Users: Trade the number of contracts corresponding to your account size (e.g., 1 MNQ for 11 contracts, 2 MNQ for 22 contracts) per 9-contract signal
• If EPIC AI signals “Close”, close your CFD or futures position with the same trade size
• Use the same trade size for all signals within a sequence

Step 4: Adjust as Your Account Grows

CFD Users: Recalculate your trade size as your account grows

• Example: With $15,000, 20% drawdown (multiplier = 1.33), Nasdaq at 20,000:
  • Trade Size = ($15,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 20,000 = 1.496 units, rounded to 1.5 units

NQ/MNQ Users: Adjust your total contracts to the next multiple of 11 as your account grows

• Example: If your account grows to $44,000, support 22 MNQ contracts and trade 2 MNQ per 9-contract signal

Key Risks to Understand

1. Sequence Drawdowns: A full sequence could lose up to your chosen maximum drawdown (e.g., 15% = $1,500 or 20% = $2,000 on a $10,000 account). Individual trades don’t cap losses; the sequence determines total risk
2. Overtrading: Don’t trade larger than your calculated trade size (CFDs) or allocated contracts (NQ/MNQ). Stay far below your platform’s maximum leverage
3. Market Volatility: Nasdaq can move quickly, especially during tech earnings seasons, Fed announcements, and major economic data releases. If using a higher drawdown, a hard stop loss limits extreme losses. If matching EPIC’s 15% drawdown, trust their dynamic adjustments
4. Platform Minimums: For CFDs, if your trade size is below 0.1 units, trade the minimum (0.1 units) or lower your drawdown tolerance. For NQ/MNQ, ensure your account supports at least 11 contracts

Trading Risk Disclaimer

⚠️ WARNING: Trading involves significant risk and can result in permanent losses of your entire account. CFDs and Nasdaq futures (NQ/MNQ), including following EPIC AI’s signals, carry a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage and market volatility. You could lose more than your initial investment, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Only trade with money you can afford to lose, and ensure you fully understand the risks involved. Consult a qualified financial adviser before trading, and never share personal or identifying information when seeking advice.

Practical Tips for Beginners

• Start Conservative: Use a 15% maximum drawdown per sequence (multiplier = 1 for CFDs, 11 contracts for NQ/MNQ) to match EPIC AI’s risk profile and avoid hard stop losses until confident
• Use a Demo Account: Practice with EPIC AI signals on your CFD or futures platform’s demo mode to test trade sizing and sequence trading
• Track Sequences: Log each sequence (trades, sizes, and outcomes) to monitor performance
• Stay Disciplined: Use the same trade size (CFDs) or contract number (NQ/MNQ) for all signals in a sequence, following EPIC AI exactly
• Recalculate Regularly: Update your trade size (CFDs) or contract allocation (NQ/MNQ) as your account balance or Nasdaq price changes
• Learn Your Platform: Know how to place trades, set stop losses (if needed), and check the Nasdaq price or futures margin requirements
• Monitor Tech News: Stay aware of major tech earnings, Fed policy decisions, and economic data that can cause significant Nasdaq movements

Example Trading Scenarios

CFD User Example

Setup:

• Account: $5,000
• Max Drawdown per Sequence: 20% (multiplier = 20 ÷ 15 = 1.33)
• Nasdaq Price: 20,000 points
• Trade Size: ($5,000 × 15 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 20,000 = 0.498 units, rounded to 0.5 units
• Stop Loss: Consider a hard stop loss at 2% ($100) per trade since drawdown exceeds 15%

Trading:

1. EPIC AI Signal: “Buy 9 Nasdaq futures contracts” (part of a sequence)
2. Action: Buy 0.5 CFD units on your platform. Set a stop loss at $100 per trade. Repeat for all signals in the sequence
3. Outcome: If the sequence loses fully, you risk up to 20% ($1,000). If it wins, profits are proportional to 0.5 units per trade
4. Account Growth: If your account grows to $7,500, recalculate: ($7,500 × 15 × 0.1 × 1.33) ÷ 20,000 = 0.747 units, rounded to 0.7 units

NQ/MNQ Futures User Example

Setup:

• Account: $22,000, supporting 11 MNQ contracts (multiple of 11)
• Max Drawdown per Sequence: 15% (match EPIC AI, no hard stop loss)
• Trade Size: 1 MNQ contract per 9-contract signal

Trading:

1. EPIC AI Signal: “Buy 9 Nasdaq futures contracts” (part of a sequence)
2. Action: Buy 1 MNQ contract. Repeat for all signals in the sequence, no hard stop loss
3. Outcome: If the sequence loses fully, you risk up to 15% (~$3,300). If it wins, profits are proportional to 1 MNQ contract per trade
4. Account Growth: If your account grows to $44,000, support 22 MNQ contracts and trade 2 MNQ contracts per 9-contract signal

Final Notes

• Stay Safe: Choose a maximum drawdown per sequence you’re comfortable with (e.g., 15-20%). Use hard stop losses only if your drawdown exceeds 15%. For NQ/MNQ, ensure your account supports at least 11 contracts
• Ask for Help: If confused about trade sizing, sequences, or your platform, ask in the EPIC Nasdaq Mavericks Telegram group or contact your broker
• Keep Learning: Sequence trading with CFDs or futures is risky. Study risk management and practice to build confidence
• Understand Tech Markets: Nasdaq is heavily influenced by technology sector performance, interest rates, and growth expectations. Stay informed about major market-moving factors in the tech industry

This simplified approach makes following EPIC AI’s signals easy for both CFD and NQ/MNQ users while aligning with your risk tolerance. Start small, stay consistent, and protect your capital!

How to Trade the Alerts

Step 1: Choose the Right Trading Platform

Essential Platform Features:

• Fractional stock trading (Fidelity, Robinhood, Charles Schwab recommended)
• Extended-hours trading (pre-market and after-market access)
• Support for smaller-cap stocks
• Fractional share support for all 14 core stocks

Step 2: Trading EPIC’s Core Stock Alerts (AI-Driven)

Understanding Position Sizing

Account Setup Formula:

1. Divide your total account value by 896 bullets
2. This gives you the dollar value per bullet
3. Apply this consistently across all core stock trades

Example: $10,000 Account

Account Value ÷ 896 bullets = Dollar per bullet

$10,000 ÷ 896 = $11.16 per bullet

Execution Examples

Buy Signal: “Buy 21/64 units of Stock XYZ”

• Calculate: 21 × $11.16 = $234.36
• Action: Invest $234.36 in Stock XYZ using fractional shares

Sell Signal: “Sell 9/64 units of Stock XYZ, hold 9/64”

• If you hold 18/64 units total, selling 9/64 = selling 50% of position
• Calculate: 9 × $11.16 = $210.84
• Action: Sell $210.84 worth of shares (half your position)

Dynamic Allocation: “Buy 70/64 units of Stock XYZ”

• Calculate: 70 × $11.16 = $781.20
• Action: Invest $781.20 (AI identified exceptional opportunity)

Trading Execution

Alert Structure:

• Stock name and ticker
• Action (buy or sell)
• Unit size (e.g., “21/64 units”)
• Any additional instructions

Best Practices:

• Execute as close to alert time as possible
• Extended-hours trades should be executed immediately when possible
• Daily/weekly timeframe allows execution within a few days if needed
• Stay disciplined: Follow signals exactly to replicate near 100% win rate

Patience is Key:

• Trade sequences last 6-8 weeks
• Avoid early exits or signal deviations
• Trust EPIC AI to guide profitable outcomes

Overview

• High-risk, high-reward opportunities
• Volatile small-cap stocks
• Often traded in pre-market hours
• Track performance at: dashboard.epicaitrader.com
• Lead trader account started at $100,000

Position Sizing Strategy

Percentage-Based Allocation:

• Follow exact percentage provided in alerts
• Scale to your account size

Example:

• Lead trader allocates 1% of $100,000 account = $1,000
• Your action: Allocate 1% of your account
  • $10,000 account = $100
  • $50,000 account = $500

Trading Plan Execution

1. Entry

• Enter as close to alert time as possible
• Ideally during pre-market hours
• Use extended-hours trading capability

2. First Trim (Typical: 50% of position)

• Lead trader signals first profit target
• Action: Sell half your shares

3. Stop Loss Protection

• Set in profit after first trim
• Follow exact stop loss level from alert
• Protects your gains

4. Final Exit

• Hold remaining position until further signals
• Respect complete trading plan

The Methodical Approach for EPIC Crypto Apes

🧠 The EPIC Crypto Philosophy

Forget Everything You Think You Know About Crypto Trading

The Common Misconception: Crypto = fast, easy wins and get-rich-quick schemes

The EPIC Reality: Optimal crypto ROI comes from patient, methodical strategy – the same disciplined approach that works in traditional markets.

Most “Crypto Day Traders” Fail:

• They can’t show consistent results over extended periods
• They’ve never survived a complete crypto cycle
• They mistake luck in bull runs for skill
• They use unsustainable leverage and risk management

The EPIC Advantage: Our protocols are designed to keep you out of trouble and in the green, regardless of market conditions.

📊 Understanding the Crypto Market Structure

Why Crypto Needs a Different Approach

Key Characteristics:

• Younger market with less liquidity than traditional assets
• Higher volatility requiring more careful position management
• 24/7 trading creating different flow patterns
• Emotional retail participation creating more extreme moves

EPIC’s Adaptation:

• Methodical entry and exit points based on order flow
• Algorithmic support/resistance levels for precision timing
• Risk management first – profits follow discipline

📈 The EPIC Crypto Strategy

Long-Bias Approach

Core Philosophy: Crypto (especially BTC) is bullish by nature

Primary Strategy is Simple:

• ✅ Trim spikes up – take profits on strength
• ✅ Add on dips down – accumulate on weakness
• ✅ Bias to the long side – align with crypto’s natural tendency

Market Evolution Adaptability

As Crypto Matures, EPIC Evolves:

• More short opportunities may be incorporated
• Macro bear reversals when conditions align
• Dynamic protocol adjustments based on market structure

Your Job: Follow EPIC’s lead – don’t try to predict or outguess the system

⚠️ The Leverage Trap

Why 50-100x Leverage Will Destroy You

The Temptation: Exchanges make high leverage easily accessible

The Reality: Over-leverage ensures you’ll never survive long enough to make real gains

EPIC’s Leverage Guidelines:

Small Cap/High Volatility Coins (SUI, TAO, etc.):

• Use NO leverage or very low leverage
• Volatility alone provides enough profit potential
• Preserve capital for the long game

Large Cap Coins (BTC, ETH):

• Slightly more aggressive leverage acceptable
• Never risk more than 20% account drawdown
• Test: Could you survive a 20% move against you?

Golden Rule: If a 20% move against your position would destroy your account, your position is too big.

🎯 The EPIC Position Sizing System

Velocity Protocol Approach

Account Division: Split your crypto trading capital into 10 equal pieces

Execution Strategy:

1. Deploy one piece whenever EPIC Velocity signals
2. Trim when EPIC signals to sell
3. Keep it simple – don’t overthink the system initially
4. Build discipline first – refinements come with experience

Example with $10,000 Account:

• Each “piece” = $1,000
• EPIC signals buy → Deploy $1,000
• EPIC signals sell → Trim that position
• Maximum exposure: 10 positions at $1,000 each

🚀 When to Take Bigger Risks

The “All Hands on Deck” Signal

Rare Opportunity Conditions:

1. EPIC rapidly buying/selling ALL coins
2. Both Velocity AND Balanced protocols active simultaneously
3. Price at major algorithmic support level
4. All conditions must align perfectly

Enhanced Position Sizing:

• Increase position size (but never risk whole account)
• Confirm support levels on charts before committing
• Higher reward potential but requires perfect discipline

Mandatory Risk Management:

• ✅ Cut positions immediately if support levels break
• ✅ Take profits as price moves in your favor
• ✅ Never let winners turn into losers

📋 The EPIC Crypto Trading Rules

Core Principles for Account Growth

1. Patience Over Speed

• Small consistent wins build accounts faster than big gambles
• Discipline beats excitement every time
• Long-game mentality is required for sustained success

2. Follow EPIC’s Lead

• EPIC’s signals are highly accurate – trust the system
• If EPIC isn’t buying/selling, neither should you
• Don’t trade out of boredom or FOMO

3. Risk Management First

• Preserve capital above all else
• Size positions for survival, not maximum profit
• Take profits systematically – don’t get greedy

4. Leverage Discipline

• Match leverage to volatility of each coin
• Never exceed your drawdown tolerance
• When in doubt, use less leverage

5. Position Management

• Add on dips when EPIC signals
• Trim on spikes when EPIC signals
• Scale out of winners to lock in profits
• If taking a bigger risk you must cut losing positions if support breaks
  • Use this sparingly only when the above conditions are met for taking bigger risks

💡 Practical Implementation

Essential Guide for EPIC AI Traders

The Reality Check: Twenty profitable trades can be wiped out instantly by one moment of poor judgment. Understanding and avoiding these common mistakes is the difference between growing your account exponentially and watching it disappear.

🚨 The #1 Root Cause: “God Mode”

The Problem: Feeling invincible after a series of wins, believing you’re the “master of the markets”

Why It’s Deadly: Markets exist to humble overconfident traders. The moment your ego inflates, you’re setting yourself up for a crushing reality check.

The Solution:

• Always assume you could be wrong – even when you feel most confident
• Plan for the worst-case scenario before entering any trade
• Stay humble – the market doesn’t care about your winning streak
• Remember: No one knows with certainty what markets will do next

Key Mindset: Enter every trade expecting the worst possible outcome. If you have a plan to handle that scenario, you’ll virtually never suffer catastrophic losses.

Every mistake below stems from “God Mode” thinking.

💰 Mistake #2: Position Sizing Disasters

Over-Sizing, Over-Leveraging, or Scaling Up Too Fast

The Stress Test: Think about every time you’ve felt stressed about a trade. Almost guaranteed it was because your position size was putting your net worth at risk.

The EPIC AI Rule: Your account should never be down more than ~15% when the edge of range hits.

Proper Position Sizing Strategy:

1. Plan for extremes – assume price will hit the most extreme edges of range against you
2. Reserve capital – keep enough bankroll to add 3-4 times to your position if needed
3. Start small – especially if you’re NOT entering at the edge of a range
4. Size for sleep – if you can’t sleep, your position is too big

Remember: EPIC AI will point out edge-of-range entries. When we don’t specifically mention it, size conservatively.

📊 Mistake #3: Trading Blind

Not Knowing Your Trading Environment

The Problem: Entering trades without understanding the algorithmic structure you’re operating within.

Why EPIC AI Exists: Our software and charting keep you constantly updated on market structures, so you never trade blind.

Before Every Trade, Know:

• Range extremes (highs and lows)
• Major support and resistance levels
• Where you are in the current structure

Your Resources:

• EPIC AI signals provide structure context
• Commentary channel explains key levels
• When in doubt: Ask in the group chat – better safe than sorry

😤 Mistake #4: Revenge Trading

Emotional Retaliation Against the Market

The Problem: Immediately jumping into another trade after a loss to “make it all back”

Why It Fails: Emotions cloud judgment, leading to bigger losses and a dangerous cycle

The EPIC Way:

1. Take a break after any significant loss
2. Go for a walk – clear your head away from charts
3. Analyze what went wrong objectively
4. Learn from the mistake – what will you do differently?
5. Wait for the next clean setup – don’t force trades

Truth: The market will always be there tomorrow. Your capital might not be if you revenge trade.

😴 Mistake #5: Boredom Trading & Overtrading

Trading for Entertainment

The Problem: Entering trades because you want to “feel something” or stay busy

The Reality Check: We have a multi million dollar AI system monitoring markets 24/7. If it’s not signaling, you shouldn’t be trading.

The EPIC Philosophy:

• Quality over quantity – Two good setups per month can add major dollars to your account
• Embrace downtime – Spend time in real life between setups
• Trust the system – Wait for notifications before pressing buttons
• Patience pays – Avoid guessing and unnecessary risks

Key Point: If EPIC AI and our lead trader aren’t active, keep your hands off the buttons.

😨 Mistake #6: FOMO and Fear Trading

Emotional Decision Making

FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)

The Feeling: Watching a green candle run away creates that sinking feeling

The Truth: There’s always another trade to catch. Jumping in mid-move rarely works.

The Solution: Relax and wait for the next proper setup

Fear Trading

The Problem: Making position decisions based on fear rather than strategy

Two Types of Fear Trading:

1. “My position is too big” – If you’re afraid, you probably need to size down
2. “I can’t handle any dips” – This is also a sizing problem

The EPIC Approach:

• Size properly from the start – fear exits the equation
• Riding dips is normal – especially into major support levels
• You never know when the run starts – holding through volatility is part of maximizing gains

🎯 Mistake #7: Round-Tripping & Ignoring Your Plan

Not Respecting Exits

The Hard Truth: Markets go UP AND DOWN. The “hopium” culture of modern markets create terrible habits.

Taking Profits

• Take profits when EPIC AI is trimming – follow the signals
• No one goes broke taking profits – greed kills accounts
• All moves terminate – bag holders watch gains disappear

Respecting Stop Losses

• If you set a stop loss, respect it – don’t move it or immediately re-enter
• Respect your trading plan – only change it with a very good reason
• Discipline beats cleverness – stick to your predetermined strategy
