Playing around to get more accurate risk of ruin for my strategy. For the sake of calculation, let's use 30% as risk of ruin.

Between backtests and live trading, i'm going to use conservative win,loss rate between the two:

The win rate wouldn't be affected much by the outliers.

I'm going to use 70% win rate and "U" is going to be 5 (max positions allowed before bot shuts off for the day).

My risk of ruin comes out to about 1.44%

Just to put things in perspective:

I have better chance of dying from cancer or heart diseases then experiencing 30% realized drawdown with this strategy.
