Thesis Builder Form
Overview
A structured form where you input: Asset, Direction (Long/Short), Entry Price, Stop Loss, Target Price, Timeframe, and a Thesis Description. Auto-calculates Risk/Reward Ratio, Suggested Position Size (based on 1% account risk), and Maximum Draw Before Exit.
How to Read
Fill every field before acting. A forced systematic approach prevents emotional decisions. The AI Thesis Validator button sends your thesis to the model for critique and counter-argument generation.
Risk/Reward Calculator
Overview
Real-time display of: Gross R/R Ratio, Net R/R (after 0.1% fees), Expected Value (EV) assuming 55% win rate, and Maximum Loss in dollar terms. Updates instantly as thesis form inputs change.
How to Read
Positive EV with R/R >2:1 = statistically worthwhile setup. Negative EV = the trade does not make mathematical sense even with a slight edge.
