JBL Risk Manager

Every successful trader and investor knows the importance of a proven trading plan or system and understands that it requires both entry and exit rules and the discipline to follow them. Unfortunately many traders focus almost all of their attention on what to trade and when. To survive it’s also important to have and follow a sound, easy to understand, Money Risk Management plan. JBL Risk Manager will automatically calculate how many shares to trade, where your initial stop loss exit price level should be, protecting your trading capital, as well as your trailing/profit stop exit price, to protect your profits.

An easy step-by-step method of keeping your emotions in check and removing the guesswork from your trading decisions, JBLRM monitors your performance with simple to follow reporting and tracks each trade easily as it integrates with your MetaStock data.

Components of our Risk/Money Management System

  • Our Profit or Trailing Stop will never be below your Initial Stop Loss. Always steady or moving up when in Profit but never down and will adjust automatically.
  • Your maximum Risk per trade (loss) will never be more than *2% of TRUE Trading Capital (less brokerage), and is automatically calculated and displayed before every trade entry.
  • JBLRM will automatically trigger an EXIT when your Stop is hit.
  • Maximum size of each trade will never be more than *20% of TRUE Trading Capital.
  • Time Stop exit is triggered if a trade has not hit breakeven within 10 days – money can be better invested elsewhere but long term investors may choose to ignore them.
  • It will track and progressively calculate your trading performance automatically.
  • It is also ideal for paper trading or back testing your trading parameters.
