    None applicable. Risk/reward cannot be quantified in this manner.... "market quatified risk".

    In a practical sense, risk is quantified by behavior. IOW... risk should be determined by your stops/discipline. (Unless you're continuously hedged, you can't protect against "out of the blue, black swan" external event.... continuous hedging is expensive.)

    That IS why I seldom vote in polls. I would much rather have 7% per week,[6 or 7 day week ]with not 85%risk . Much less comissions/slippage LOL. IF ONLY all weeks were equal ........22.5%; I used his math on this last one LOL
