My one and only rule! Risk management, manage your risk and you will not fail.
I second that. Risk understanding is critical to trading. Without that even a good trader will lose all their money
I third it
Why will risk management stop you failing? Does this mean even if I randomly enter trades I will still be able to profit if I use risk management?
If you are using reasonable risk management then you aren't going to be just randomly trading.
Trade with a strategy that uses accurate analysis of a high probability set ups for entry.
If it looks too good to be true, it's probably a scam! Let the buyer beware.

It IS that simple.
If you manage your risks properly, then you will protect your account against massive losses.
Trade only when the market indicates a profitable setup. This may happen several times a day some times, while other times it may be weeks before the market presents a high probability setup.
Losses happen, however, it's how you handle the losses and decrease your risk that determines if your are going to be a profitable trader or not.
Don't trade just to trade.
Trade to be profitable.
Manage your risks.
Automate where possible and reasonable.
Check your emotions at the door, and never allow them to dictate your trading.
If it looks too good to be true, it's probably a scam! Let the buyer beware.

The markets are changing every single day and the strategies or methods you have used 2-3 years ago might not work now. So you need to continue to educate yourself on a daily basis and this is my golden rule that is to keep learning on daily basis.

I agree with you on the need to keep learning.

Excellent rule.
Risk management in my opinion is the most important rule to become successful in investing.

I beg to differ.if you are using a trend following system then during high impact news this system will give u decent profits but if you are using Grid type EA then trade during high impact news will be disastrous for your accout.
The market will trade through it’s path of least resistance .

Same here; I am also interested in manual trading! Using others trading strategy or System isn’t a proper solution!

my golden rule is:
Never trade more than set for the day. i always plan ahead the profit % for the day and how much risk i can take. so once i am done, i am out.

Nonsense. Some automated systems exist which trade quite well during high impact news events.
