Worked Example
Worked Example
Avg win: $500 | Avg loss: $300 | Win rate: 55% | Start: $10,000 | 20 trades/mo | 12 months
Avg gain per trade: (0.55 × $500) − (0.45 × $300) = $275 − $135 = $140
Monthly gain: 20 × $140 = $2,800/month
Projected 12-month balance: ~$43,600 | Kelly %: 28.1%
Verdict: STRONG STRATEGY — positive expectancy with good sizing.
