FAQ

Is this investment advice?

No. This is an educational calculator using your hypothetical assumptions.

Does the score predict profit?

No. It explains risk math and scenario pressure, not future market outcomes.

Why include costs and tail losses?

Because repeated small costs and occasional large losses can dominate a strategy that looks strong on a single metric.
