The account balance you begin the simulation with. All position sizing compounds from this figure as the balance grows or shrinks.
?
Percentage of your current balance risked per trade. At 1%, a $2,000 account risks $20. Compounds — bigger balance = bigger dollar risk.
?
Your average stop-loss distance as % of entry price. Determines position size: Position Size = Dollar Risk ÷ Stop-Loss%. Tighter stop = larger position for the same dollar risk.
Fees
?
Maker fee = your entry order (limit order, adds liquidity). Taker fee = your exit/TP/stop order (market order, removes liquidity). Both are applied to the full position value per trade.
Maker applied on entry · Taker applied on TP exits, stop-loss, and trailing stop closes
Simulation Settings
?
Number of independent trading journeys to simulate. 500 is solid; 1000+ for high precision. Each run uses random outcomes based on your probabilities.
?
How many months to simulate forward. Longer periods amplify both the upside of a positive expectancy edge and the downside of a negative one.
?
Average trades per day. Can be decimal — 1.7 means some days 1 trade, some days 2. Total trades = Trades/Day × Days/Week × weeks simulated.
?
How many days per week you actively trade. 5 = full Mon–Fri week.
Outcome Probabilities
?
Percentage of trades that exit at breakeven — no profit, no loss on the trade itself. Fees still apply on entry and exit, giving these a small net negative impact.
Take Profit 1 — Primary Target
?
Win % = how often this trade hits TP and closes here. R-Multiple = how many times your risked amount you gain (2R on $20 risk = $40 profit).
Use a trailing stop after TP hit
?
When on, the position is not fully closed at TP — it trails the market. When off, the entire trade closes at the TP price (taker fee applied on exit).
After hitting TP, your position trails. Choose where the stop closes the trade:
Multiple take profits
?
Win % per TP = how often the trade reaches ONLY that level and exits there. E.g. TP1 30% means 30% of trades exit at TP1 only, never reaching TP2.
Win % for each TP = probability the trade exits at THAT level only and goes no further. They should sum with Break-even % to approach 100%.

Slippage + regime shifts
?
Slippage = friction cost on winning trades. Regime shifts = win rate changes monthly with 60% chance of a negative shift, simulating real market condition changes.
