◆ The PatternAdd to winning positions in decreasing tiers
Pyramiding builds a full position across multiple entries as a trade moves favorably. Each additional tier is typically smaller than the last so average cost stays well inside the profit zone.
Risktotal = Σ tieri × (entryi − stop)
Common patterns: 4-3-2-1 units, or three equal tiers at predefined price milestones. The stop is usually tightened with each add so that risk on older entries is locked to breakeven.
