A drawdown plan written in advance is useful mainly because it removes decisions you would otherwise make while frustrated. As a worked example with made-up numbers: if your account is 10,000 and you agree that after three losing days you halve position size until you have two winning days in a row, the rule is fixed before any loss happens. One concept worth checking is whether your rule is based on consecutive losing days, total drawdown from a peak, or a loss in dollar terms, since these trigger at very different points. Which of those would you choose, and why?
