Phase 1: Foundations
A unit (1u) is 1% of your own bankroll. We post size in units, never dollars, because your bankroll isn't ours.
Example only: with a $2,000 bankroll, 1u is $20 and 0.5u is $10.
Plays are sized by how many reasons stack up for them, usually 0.5u to 1.5u. A bigger size means more reasons, not a surer thing.
Why units help:
Resize your unit on a schedule (we do it monthly), not after every win or loss.

Your bankroll is $500. Example only: what is 1u?
B. $5. 1u is 1% of your own bankroll, so 1% of $500 is $5.
