How to Manage Risk Like a Pro in Sports Trading

Ask any seasoned trader: risk management is everything. It’s the difference between lasting success and early failure. At ESC, our challenge rules are designed to help you learn (and apply) top-tier risk discipline:
- Respect the Drawdowns: With our 20% max drawdown and 15% daily limit, you must learn to manage your exposure. These rules mirror what real prop firms expect.
- Proper Bet Sizing: We set minimum and maximum simulated bet sizes to teach you smart allocation. Reckless sizing ends challenges early.
- Avoid Overtrading: Spamming picks or reacting emotionally to bad days leads to volatility. We reward strategic, consistent action.
- Review and Improve: Smart traders keep a journal, track trends, and make adjustments. Every pick is a learning opportunity.
Whether you're serious about making sports trading a side income or just looking for a smarter, gamified way to enjoy your weekend matches, learning proper risk management is the key to unlocking long-term enjoyment and potential earnings.
