Trading Risk

Revolutionary techniques that traders can implement to improve profits and avoid losses
No trader, professional or individual, can afford not to have a solid risk management program integrated into his or her trading system. But finding a precise mathematical model to replace subjective decision-making processes is a challenge. Traditionally, risk management has focused solely on loss avoidance, but in “Trading Risk”, hedge fund risk manager Kenneth Grant presents something completely new, how to manage a portfolio to minimize risk and increase profits by putting more capital at risk. “Trading Risk” details a risk management program that can help both money managers and individual traders evaluate which elements in a portfolio are working efficiently and which aren't. By illustrating an extremely simple set of statistical and arithmetic tools this book can help readers enhance their performance in many financial markets.
