Always a tricky balance. I usually scale back my position size significantly on Fridays, especially if it's been a volatile week. Better to leave some on the table than get crushed by a late swing.

For me, it's about setting hard stop-losses. I size based on my maximum acceptable loss for that specific trade, regardless of the day of the week. Friday just means I'm extra vigilant.

While single orders are safer, legging in allows you to be more selective about your entry points for each leg, potentially getting a better overall credit or debit. It's a trade-off between control and risk.
