How It Works

Risk of Ruin Formula: RoR = ((1 - edge) / (1 + edge))^units

Where:

  • Edge = (Win Rate × Avg Win) - (Loss Rate × Avg Loss) in R terms
  • Units = Max Drawdown / Risk Per Trade (how many losses you can take)

Kelly Criterion: Optimal bet size = Edge / Odds. We show half-Kelly as a safer recommendation.

For prop firms: Your max drawdown is fixed by the firm. The only variable you control is risk per trade. Lower risk = lower RoR.
