Risk

The risk desk of a hedge fund. Set up in five questions.

Answer five questions you already know the answers to. Glitch turns them into limits, sizes every trade, and stops the one bad day that ends most accounts.

A balanced risk profile with suggested trade sizes for each account
A suggested trade size of 0.38 lots with the money at risk

Your profile, your limits and the right size for every account, in one place.

The risk desk

The risk desk of a hedge fund. In your pocket.

Most traders do not lose because they pick the wrong side. They lose because one bad trade is too big. Glitch makes that the one mistake you cannot make by accident.

Try it: how big should this trade be?

Trade size

0.08 lots

If price reaches your stop, you lose $20.00, no more than the $20.00 you chose. Even after ten losses in a row, you would still have $1,809.

In plain words: how this size is worked out
Say your account holds $2,000 and you are happy to lose 1% on one trade, which is $20. Your stop is 25 pips away, and on EURUSD each pip on a full lot is worth $10. So you divide $20 by 25 pips times $10, and get 0.08 lots. That is the size where being wrong costs exactly $20. Glitch does this for every trade, on every account, using your broker's real figures.
  1. 01

    Stops that fit the market

    A stop closer than the usual wobble gets hit for nothing. Glitch measures the wobble.

    How much prices move

    Hour by hour and session by session, in pips and in money.

  3. 03

    Chance of ruin

    Thousands of possible futures, run on your own results. How often does the account survive?

  4. 04

    Your worst day

    What a really bad day would cost, worked out before it comes.

    Stress tests

    Replay a crash or a surprise rate cut against what you hold now.

    Your trading style

    Scalper, day trader or swing trader. Your limits adapt to the way you trade.

  8. Seven tools a fund would buy from seven vendors. Every one of them here, and every answer in money, not jargon.

Daily loss limit

Hit it, and new trades stop until tomorrow. No exceptions you will regret.

One bet, not three

Trades that win and lose together are added up as the one bet they are.

Kill switch

One press closes everything, on every account, at once.

Prop firm rules

Daily and total drawdown watched live, so a challenge is never lost to a number you forgot.
