Can I Set My Own Risk for Each SMARTT Signal?

In modern trading, especially in copy trading systems, one of the most important questions traders ask is: Can I control my own risk? With SMARTT, the answer is a confident yes. This article explains how users—whether beginners or experienced traders—can manage risk per signal within the SMARTT platform, and why this flexibility is crucial for long-term success.

 Why Managing Risk Per Signal Matters

Every trade is different. Market conditions, trader strategies, and asset volatility can change from one signal to another. Relying on a single risk setting for all trades can lead to unnecessary losses or missed opportunities. That’s why being able to set your own risk level for each signal is an essential feature for serious traders.

SMARTT offers this flexibility, allowing users to fine-tune their exposure depending on the signal’s nature, market context, or personal comfort level.

 How SMARTT Handles Risk Management

SMARTT provides two main methods to handle risk for each signal:

 1. Automatic Risk Configuration

For beginners or those who prefer simplicity, SMARTT can automatically set parameters like:

•        Stop-loss

•        Take-profit

•        Lot size or investment percentage

These automatic settings are based on the signal provider’s strategy and market behavior. It's ideal for users who want to follow trades without making manual decisions.

 2. Manual Risk Adjustments

More advanced users can take full control. SMARTT allows you to:

•        Manually adjust stop-loss and take-profit levels

•        Choose a custom risk percentage per trade

•        Set different position sizes based on asset type or confidence in the signal

This dual approach ensures that users are not locked into one method. They can mix automation with manual control as needed.

 Is This Feature Available to All Users?

Yes. All users on SMARTT, regardless of their subscription plan, have access to the same risk management tools. This includes users on the Starter Plan, who benefit from full control and transparency.

So whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been trading for years, you don’t need to upgrade to get the tools you need to protect your capital.

 Real-World Example: How a Beginner and a Pro Might Use It

Let’s say you’re a beginner. You trust the system and want to let it handle things. You enable auto-risk mode, and SMARTT will set appropriate stop-losses based on the trader’s profile and market context.

Now imagine a professional trader who follows the same signal. They might recognize a short-term opportunity and decide to manually increase their position size while adjusting the stop-loss based on their personal strategy.

Both users receive the same signal. But each handles it based on their comfort with risk—thanks to SMARTT’s flexibility.

 Reviewing the Trader's Strategy Before You Follow

Before setting your risk, it’s smart to understand who you’re copying. On the Traders page, SMARTT provides full profiles for each signal provider. You can see:

•        Strategy details

•        Win/loss history

•        Risk behavior

This transparency helps you set risk more intelligently. You’re not following an anonymous tip—you’re making an informed decision.

 How Ideas Help You Prepare

Another useful resource is the Ideas section. Every day, SMARTT shares trading ideas based on market news and analysis. These are free and available even before a signal is published, helping you anticipate what may come.

Using these ideas, you can:

•        Get a sense of the market direction

•        Decide in advance how much risk you're willing to take

•        Stay educated and active in your strategy

 Final Thoughts

SMARTT is designed to empower traders at every level. Whether you want to set your own risk manually or prefer automated safety nets, the platform gives you control.

And the best part? You can do this for each signal individually, without being forced into one-size-fits-all settings.
