Frequently Asked Questions

​

Is QuestForEdge a trading strategy?

No. QuestForEdge focuses on risk, expectancy, system behavior, and execution. It does not provide entry signals or claim to predict market direction.

​

Can a profitable strategy still suffer large drawdowns?

Yes. Positive expectancy describes the average outcome over a sufficiently large sample. It does not prevent losing streaks or guarantee a smooth equity curve.

​

Why does position size matter so much?

Because position size determines how strongly each outcome affects account equity. The same sequence of wins and losses can produce very different drawdowns when risk per trade changes.

​

Why is correlated exposure important?

Several positions can appear diversified while still depending on the same underlying factor. For example, multiple currency pairs may all express a similar USD view.

​

What is the purpose of EmoGuardian and Cerberus?

They are risk-control utilities. Their purpose is to enforce predefined account rules, not to generate trading signals or improve a strategy’s edge.

​

Does risk management eliminate losses?

No. Risk management cannot remove uncertainty. Its purpose is to control the size, concentration, and consequences of losses.
