BTC consolidates near its recent highs as funding rates flip negative. Given: account $3850, short BTC at 66362, stop 68850.58. House rule: risk at most 1.25% of the account per trade. How many BTC do you buy, and what percent of the account is actually at risk? Return `size` (in BTC) and `riskPct`.

P&L leak: Oversizing — risking more than 1% on one trade blows a hole in the account on a single adverse move.

Stop distance = 68850.58 - 66362 = 2488.58 USD per BTC. Max risk = 1.25% × $3850 = $48.125. Size = 48.125 / 2488.58 ≈ 0.01934 BTC, which risks exactly 1.25% of equity. Note: notional ≈ $1283 (~33% of equity) exceeds the 20% notional cap, so the binding constraint at this stop would actually be a smaller size (~0.0116 BTC, ~0.75% risk).

Risk per BTC = 68850.58 − 66362 = 2488.58. Max risk = 1.25% × $3850 = $48.125. Size = 48.125 / 2488.58 ≈ 0.01934 BTC, which puts exactly 1.25% of equity at risk by construction.

Funding rates have flipped negative, suggesting the market is net short and may squeeze higher, but the consolidation near highs with a defined stop allows for a risk-controlled short entry.
