Systematic Trading — Quantitative + Behavioral Edge
Every edge rests on a simple truth:
probability, risk, and behavior shape all outcomes.
This section collects the concepts I test, refine, and apply
directly inside live markets. Each article grows from data,
post-analysis, and practical constraint.
Core Foundations
🧱 Risk Management
Survival first — everything else depends on it.
→ Risk Management
📏 Position Sizing
Sizing explains most performance variation — edge unlocks only when protected.
→ Position Sizing
📈 Expected Value
Outcomes are determined not by frequency — but by payoff distribution.

🌪 Volatility & Liquidity
Markets move in bursts. Slippage and imbalance tax impatience.

Market Behavior
🧩 Market Structure
Where trades risk the least and information reveals itself.
(coming soon)
🔀 Market Regimes
Trend, range, expansion, contraction — context changes everything.
(coming soon)
📊 Technical & Fundamental Inputs
Tools for estimating edge — neither complete on their own.
(coming soon)
🎲 Probability & Statistics
Thinking in odds, not predictions — variance is the real opponent.
(coming soon)
Strategy & Edge Development
🎯 Entry Logic
Precision reduces required win-rate and improves asymmetry.
(coming soon)
🔁 Exit Logic
Expectancy lives or dies in the exit.
(coming soon)
🧪 System Design
Stacking independent advantages into a rule-based edge.
(coming soon)
⚡ Edge Validation
Test → measure → iterate → deploy → review.
(coming soon)
Execution & Performance
🛠 Execution Skill
Bringing rules into reality — timing, fills, and constraint.
(coming soon)
🧠 Psychology
When risk meets emotion — clarity decides outcome.
(coming soon)
📓 Journaling & Feedback Loops
Where adaptation happens. Evidence over ego.
(coming soon)
🔍 Backtesting
Confidence built on truth — not hope.

Philosophy of Research
Test what is true.
Discard what fails.
Refine what works.
Everything here is living research —
updated by results, not opinions.
If something here proves useful to you,
that’s real value — earned through proof.
