Volatility
How much and how fast a market's price moves over time.
Higher volatility means wider swings — bigger opportunities and bigger risks. It should drive your stop distance and position size: the same dollar risk needs a smaller position in a volatile instrument than a calm one. Measures like ATR put a number on it.
