# SD-555 Smoke Test — Lesson Shortcodes This is the **intro paragraph** with _italic text_, a [link](https://example.com), and `inline code` to verify standard markdown still works without regressions. ## 1. KeyConcept (with custom title) Never risk more than **1%** of your account on a single trade. This rule comes from prop traders who survived multiple market cycles — including 2008 and 2020. The math: with 1% risk per trade, you'd need ~7 consecutive losses to draw down 7%. With 5% risk, the same 7 losses cost you ~30%. ## 2. KeyConcept (no title — tests "Key concept" fallback) Position sizing matters more than entry timing. A great entry with bad sizing still loses money over time. ## 3. DangerZone **Moving your stop-loss further away** because the trade is going against you is the most expensive mistake retail traders make. If your invalidation level is hit, the trade is wrong. Period. Closing it preserves capital for the next opportunity. ## 4. ProTip (default title) Use the **ATR indicator** to size stops based on actual volatility, not arbitrary pip distances. For EUR/USD on the 4H chart, a 1.5× ATR stop is a reasonable default starting point. ## 5. ChartExample The shaded zone marks the area between entry and stop. Notice how the ATR-based stop sits below the recent swing low without being too tight. ## 6. OrderSequence 1. Identify the trend on the **daily chart** using the 50/200 EMA crossover. 2. Wait for a pullback to the 20 EMA on the 4H timeframe. 3. Confirm with a bullish engulfing or hammer candle at the 20 EMA. 4. Enter on the close of the confirmation candle. 5. Place the stop below the swing low; size position so risk = 1% of account. 6. Target the previous swing high as the first take-profit level. ## 7. FillBlank (with pipe-separated alternatives) The trend is your [[friend|amigo]] until the end. Cut your [[losses]] short and let your [[winners|profits]] run. ## 8. FillBlank (with bold formatting around the input) The most important risk-management metric is **[[risk-reward|risk reward|R:R]]** ratio. ## 9. Nesting — different shortcodes (should work) You need both: 1% per trade — limits damage from any single bad position. Don't have more than 3 correlated trades open at once. Three EUR/USD-correlated trades = one big position, not three separate ones. ## 10. Edge case — unrecognized comment (should be silently ignored) This text should render normally because `random-thing` is not in the REGISTRY. ## 11. Standard markdown (regression check) | Indicator | Best for | | --------- | -------- | | EMA | Trend following | | RSI | Reversal signals | | ATR | Volatility measurement | ```python def position_size(account, risk_pct, stop_distance_pips): risk_amount = account * risk_pct return risk_amount / stop_distance_pips ``` - Normal list item - Another item with **bold** and `code` - ~~Strikethrough~~ (requires remark-gfm) ---
