How does Kyle Ng execute and size a trade?

Execution is mechanical once the first two steps agree: enter on the close of the confirming candle, stop beyond the failure's extreme, target the previous high or low. A typical example from his own teaching runs about 1.3 to 1 reward to risk; the edge comes from the win rate of the trap, not from lottery targets.

Risk is fixed per trade before entry. The stop placement question in review is always the same: was the idea wrong, or was the placement wrong? A stop inside the market's normal wiggle takes losses on right ideas, which is how good systems get abandoned for bad reasons.

And the standing rule sits on top of everything: invalidation hit means done for the day. The system's math only works for the trader who is still following it next week.
