A Short Guide to Risk Metrics

by Fisher, Quantitative Analyst

1. Volatility is key

Volatility is the most important metric for risk management. It’s the amount of change in a value over time. If you’re trading stocks, it’s the percentage change in the stock price. If you’re investing in crypto, it’s the percentage change in the price of your crypto.

Time is the most important dimension for volatility. If you’re trading stocks, it’s the time since the stock price changed. If you’re investing in crypto, it’s the time since the price of your crypto changed.

2. High Risk and what it means

Risk is a measure of the likelihood that something bad will happen. It’s a measure of the probability that something bad will happen. It’s a measure of the impact that something bad will have on your trade or investment.

When working on a risky asset, it’s important to understand what it means to be high risk. It’s important to understand what it means to be high risk to your trade or investment.

One way to classify your risk is to look at the probability of it happening. If you’re trading stocks, it’s the probability that the stock price will go up or down. If you’re investing in crypto, it’s the probability that your crypto will lose or gain value.

3. Mix Risk

If you trade in multiple assets, it’s important to understand how they interact with each other. If you’re trading stocks and crypto, it’s important to understand how the two assets interact with each other.

You can also use the same metric to look at the risk of a crypto project. If you’re investing in a project, it’s the probability that the project will fail. If you’re trading in a project, it’s the probability that the project will go bust. It's the probability will lose value over a given period of time.
