Demo data

Built for the way you trade

Every MAV feature shows up where it matters — here's what makes the biggest difference for you.

Position Size Calculator

Enter your entry, stop, and target. Get an exact contract or share count and the dollar amount at risk.

  • Works for stocks and futures
  • Futures multipliers built in (ES, NQ, CL, and more)
  • Shows R:R ratio with instant feedback

Daily Loss Guardrails

Set a daily loss limit tied to your account size. MAV tracks the line against your logged trades.

  • Auto-tracks from your journal
  • Manual mode to log losses live
  • Headroom indicator shows the room you have left

Risk Health Scoring

A 30-day discipline score shows what share of your losses stayed inside your own max-risk envelope.

  • Avg loss, worst trade, and worst day at a glance
  • Sample size shown so you know if the data is solid
  • Color-coded green, yellow, red

7-Day Drawdown Chart

Weekly P&L in one view, with your current streak and daily-limit line overlaid.

  • Drawdown plotted against your daily limit
  • Bars run red on down days, green on up days
  • Today highlighted so you can track intraday

Kelly Criterion Guidance

From your last 10 or more closed trades, MAV calculates a suggested risk % from your win rate and payoff ratio.

  • Uses half-Kelly, a more conservative setting
  • Capped at 5% per the formula's intent
  • Updates as your trade history grows

Live Journal Integration

Every trade you log feeds position sizing, daily limits, and health scoring. No manual math.

  • Account size stored server-side
  • Daily loss pulled straight from your P&L
  • Settings sync across your devices

Risk Manager is a tool, not a broker or an adviser. The position sizing formulas, daily-loss guardrails, R:R math, and Kelly suggestions are estimates only. You set your own risk and verify every calculation before you trade.

The discipline score compares your realized losses to your max-risk allowance, your account size multiplied by your chosen risk %. A high score means you stayed inside your own rules. A low one is a signal to revisit your entries and stops.

Most traders size by feel and find out later it cost them. MAV puts the math first: size the position, then take the trade. Your journal fills the guardrails on its own, so the numbers come from your record instead of a gut call.
