011: Ralph Vince talks position sizing, optimalf, diversification and risk. [AUDIO ONLY]

Great video! I'm curious about one thing though.
How does this work when taking into account stop loss?
Let's say you have $1000 dollar account and you are willing to risk 1% on each trade. And you get an Optimal F of 0.1.
1. Does this mean that you are betting $100 on each trade?
Or
2. Does this mean that you will size up such that you risk $100 dollar on each trade?

Great interview. Reading 'The New Money Management' at the moment. Heavy stuff!

I've been trying to understand Ralph Vince to use his position sizing ideas, for years by now. But without Maths background, I simply couldnt do it. Can understand the principles, but cant apply them on a day to day basis. Very frustrating

[@BetterSystemTraderPodcast]

agreed, it can be challenging to apply day to day

Vince looks like a really funny guy!
