## Overview

Portfolio Manager provides market analysis capabilities with risk management.

## Workflow

```python
# Example: Position sizing (Kelly Criterion)
def kelly_size(win_rate: float, avg_win: float, avg_loss: float) -> float:
    if avg_loss == 0: return 0
    b = avg_win / abs(avg_loss)
    kelly = (win_rate * b - (1 - win_rate)) / b
    return max(0, min(kelly * 0.5, 0.02))  # Half-Kelly, max 2%
```

1. **Research** — Analyze market conditions and opportunities
2. **Plan** — Define entry, exit, and position sizing
3. **Execute** — Place trades with proper order types
4. **Monitor** — Track positions and market changes
5. **Manage risk** — Apply stop-losses and hedging
6. **Review** — Post-trade analysis and journaling

## Risk Management

- Never risk more than 1-2% of portfolio per trade
- Set stop-loss before entering any position
- Diversify across uncorrelated assets
- Size positions based on volatility (ATR)
- Have a maximum daily loss limit

## Key Metrics

- Win rate and profit factor
- Sharpe ratio and max drawdown
- Average risk-reward ratio
- Expectancy per trade
- Correlation to benchmark

## Discipline Rules

- Follow your trading plan — no impulsive trades
- Cut losses short, let winners run
- Review every trade in your journal
- Never revenge trade after a loss
- Take breaks after consecutive losses

## Anti-Rationalization Table

| Rationalization | Reality |
|---|---|
| "I will cut losses later" | Later never comes. Set stop-losses before entering any trade. |
| "This time is different" | It never is. Follow your strategy, not your emotions. |
| "I do not need to journal" | Journaling reveals patterns in your behavior. Track every trade. |
