  3. My preferred method of risk management is setting Stop-Loss and Take profit.

    Using SL and TP is a fundamental and important principle in trading.

    What are you trading? And how? Day trading? Swing trading? Or something else?

    Write down how you are going to trade.
    It's a manual to guide someone else how to trade your system.
    It should answer the question "What do I do now?".

    You have money you want to risk in the market. What is the first thing you should do, what next? It should be a series of If/Then scenarios; If this happens, then do this.

    It seems like you should be able to write this in a couple of hours. Chances are if you can be bothered, it will take a few days if not a few weeks. Most can't be bothered and have to answer the question "what do I do now?" when they are in the middle of a trade under a lot of pressure.

    Plan your trade. Trade your plan!
