I would like a Fixed Ratio position sizing spreadsheet
I've seen those. But I'm just looking for a simple spreadsheet I can plug my daily trades into and end up with a possible position size for the following day. Has to be Fixed Ratio....

Panda I use a fixed ratio system and this is the software I use. You setup a csv spreadsheet and can copy your trades into it. The program reads that spreadsheet and you can analyze your data using fixed ratio as well as other methods. I use it on my live trades and it is fantastic to plug a back test into it. Backtesting you can use the software to find your optimal fixed ratio and see what the draw downs with position sizing applied are like etc.
"The day I became a winning trader was the day it became boring. Daily losses no longer bother me and daily wins no longer excited me. Took years of pain and busting a few accounts before finally got my mind right. I survived the darkness within and now just chillax and let my black box do the work."
Can anyone help me to calculate the appropriate delta and the "rate of decrease" for a particular market?I guess that will be something really helpful and practical approach to the subject.
How would I go about creating a fixed ratio for option spreads ?
I would like to start creating one but I am not sure how to start
I am doing option spreads on SPX and I have some gains so I am thinking if I could scale up but I also want to reduce some of the risk if possible
