How You Can Boost Trading Success Using Van K. Tharp's Position Sizing Game

Warning : Traditional Windows Install required 😊


In the words of the master himself :

I've designed The Position Sizing™ Game to help you learn the secrets to trading success before you play the markets. This game does not simulate picking stocks in the market.  Instead, it simulates trading a system that has certain characteristics.  The system takes care of the ‘stock picking’ for you so that you can focus entirely on the most important aspects of trading-position sizing and letting your profits run. Our game has ten levels that get progressively more difficult to master. However, once you've mastered these principles, you'll know you've mastered some of the skills to trading success. (Levels 1-3 are free).

To complete this game, you must master four key principles: (1) understanding the importance of R-multiples; (2) understanding the difference between expectancy and probability; (3) learning how to let profits run without letting them escape; and (4) using position sizing to make sure you have a low-risk trade.  The Position Sizing™ Game is designed to drive these principles home by giving you the experience of making (or losing) money in a game environment where losing is safer.  Through this game, you’ll begin to understand these principles experientially without having real money at stake.
