INSIGHT

Comprehensive Parameter Mapping

  • The Theta Engine Matrix tests 192 parameter permutations to reveal how DTE, delta, profit take, and stop loss shape strategy behavior.
  • Combining metrics like PCR, drawdown, Kelly and a custom TE score helps compare risk-adjusted outcomes across settings.
ADVICE

Use Profit Targets To Boost Capital Efficiency

  • Take profit early to improve capital efficiency by completing multiple round trips within a longer DTE window.
  • Use average days-in-trade to measure how many times you can hit that profit target per original DTE period.
INSIGHT

Speed And PCR Velocity Metrics

  • 'Speed' measures how many round trips you can make within the trade's DTE by dividing DTE by average DIT.
  • 'PCR velocity' multiplies PCR by speed to reflect premium capture adjusted for trade turnover.
