Position size versus Kelly

Full Kelly maximises growth and is far too volatile to trade. Half-Kelly is the practical ceiling.

Half Kelly (ceiling)8.8%

The losing streak you should plan for

Over 240 trades a year, a 10-trade losing streak is likely at 95% confidence. At 1.0% per trade that is a 9.6% drawdown — and it says nothing about whether the system is broken.

Your own record, analysed properly

Automatic journaling from your broker, with setups and behavioural leaks measured from your own trades.

  1. Imported from your broker

    Trades import directly from the broker, so the journal does not depend on manual entry.

  2. Grouped into setups

    Trades are grouped into setups by your own tagging or by detected pattern.

  3. Expectancy per setup

    Expectancy for each setup, with statistical confidence.

  4. Performance by condition

    Performance by time of day, day of week, holding period, position size and market condition.

  5. Behavioural leaks in dollars

    Revenge trading after a loss, size increases after a win, cutting winners early and holding losers, each quantified in dollars.

  6. The one change, with the arithmetic

    It reports the one change with the largest expected effect, with the arithmetic shown.

The problem

Traders often cannot tell which recurring behaviours are costing them and which setups have a genuine edge, because they never analyse their own record properly.

Manual journaling is hard to keep up, and broker statements show profit and loss without showing why. So the same specific mistake keeps repeating.

Who it is for

  • Active retail traders

    Traders in equities, futures, options and foreign exchange with more than a year of trading history.

  • Traders roughly breaking even

    People who trade actively, are roughly breaking even and cannot work out why.
