Instrument Guide

NAS100 position sizing on FXIFY requires careful attention to the index's volatility and FXIFY's tight risk parameters. With an average daily range of 300 points and $1 per point per lot, this instrument can quickly eat into your 4% daily loss limit if you're not precise with sizing. The 300-point daily range means reasonable stop losses typically range from 30-80 points depending on your timeframe. Swing traders often use 60-80 point stops, while scalpers might use 15-30 points. Given NAS100's tendency for sharp intraday moves, I recommend stops no tighter than 30 points unless you're purely scalping. Worked example: On a $100k FXIFY account, risking 1% ($1,000) with a 50-point stop means maximum position size of 2 lots ($1,000 ÷ 50 points ÷ $1 per point). At 2% risk ($2,000), you could trade 4 lots with the same stop. However, be cautious with 2% risk on NAS100 - two bad trades could approach your daily limit. NAS100 suits FXIFY's prop model well because the volatility creates profit opportunities, but the $1 per point structure makes risk calculation straightforward. Unlike forex where you juggle pip values and lot sizes, here it's simple: points moved × lot size × $1 = P&L. The challenge is respecting the instrument's power - NAS100 can move 100+ points in minutes during news events. Key consideration: FXIFY's 10% max drawdown pairs well with NAS100's trending nature. The index often provides clear directional moves that can help you reach the 10% profit target, but always size for the worst-case scenario, not the best-case trend.
