  2. Market volatility: The more volatile the market, the greater the risk exposure (especially during big news events, you don’t want to be trading or find yourself on the wrong side of the market during such events)
  3. Trading strategy: Different trading strategies may have different risk exposures, and traders should carefully consider the risk profile of a strategy before implementing it.
