Risk management for new investors is not a spreadsheet cult. It is a short list of rules that keep you in the game. The market does not care that you are new. Your position sizes should.
Cash is a position
An emergency fund is risk management. If rent lives in Bitcoin, you do not have an investment plan. You have a countdown.
Size beats prediction
You will be wrong sometimes. A 5% position that goes badly is a lesson. A 60% position that goes badly is a lifestyle change. Write maximum weights before you buy.
Diversify for real
Ten crypto tokens is still a crypto bet. Mix asset classes: stocks for growth, metals for ballast, crypto only if you accept the ride — each with a cap.
No leverage while learning
Borrowed money turns volatility into a trapdoor. Learn unlevered first.
Process over tips
Identity verification, a regulated platform, 2FA, and a review calendar are risk tools. So is ignoring guaranteed-return DMs. Orizon Invest is built so the operational side of that list is not scattered.
