TH9 Defence Strategy - Noob

Hi All, sorry if this is not in the correct section. Just want to thank everyone for sharing so much information it's helped me a long the way. I am looking at having a base that loses very little resources and can lose trophies all day long.

I realise now I should have stayed at TH8 but couldn't resist. :(. My defences are roughly level 5/6 and now to upgrade my defences were talking 1mil + and I can raise the money but someone will just come along and take it.

Anyone have a good layout plan that I could possibly follow?

Thanks all! Keep on clashing!!
