Position sizing
It is part of the trading game. Position sizing enable traders constantly and consistently using the same amount of capital every single trade. Beside having a fix amount to trade, it also provides traders the ability to monitor winning rate, calculations of profit per period.
Let’s us take a look at the formula for position sizing:
No. Of shares = (risk in percentage * total capital) / risk in $ per share
Maintaining this position, keeping my risk/reward ratio, now let’s input my winning ratio is of a 50%
2% of the capital $10k * winning rate of 50% = 100$
1% of the capital * losing rate of 50%
= $50
Net profit per trade = $50
Make 100 trades = $50*100 = $5,000
The trader has made 50% return on capital per period
Hence, it highlights the importance of position sizing.
