Trade Size & Allocations
​
Generally the maximum DIRECTIONAL risk at any given time will not exceed 5-10% of the standard Risk Budget (see below), which equates to $2,500 to $5,000 dollars per 1x scale.
​​
This is based on there is generally some offsetting position or hedge to the any overall directional bias that the strategy is trading. Often times hedges or trade signals that are counter-directional to the overall tide or theme of the strategy will mitigate, or even completely negate the directional theme being wrong.
​​
The general scope of the strategy seeks to produce winners that are 2x-3x the losing trades.

Risk Budgets
​
Each client should consider defining a Risk Budget prior to trading. This is simply the amount of TOTAL capital they are willing to risk in order to achieve their individual goals. Basically this is the maximum drawdown a client is willing to take, but it is also suitable for a staring account size. However, this is the baseline size at 1 unit and the strategy is designed for Clients trading larger size than what we issue the trades as.
​​
The strategy defines a starting Risk Budget per 1x scale of $50,000.
​
This is for illustrative purposes only and not a recommendation or advice, but is suitable to participate in the strategy considering the position sizes and risk taken. ​
​
​
Each client is responsible for maintaining their own margin requirements.
