I agree, it depends on your strike rate.

1% or 2% and divide that by the rated price.

Now that's very small, but it will build confidence and you won't be sweating losses.

I have a method that has a 40% strike rate and 15% POT, so I use 5% of bank not reducing, but that's purely because of such a high strike rate.
