Every play we post is one unit. This tells you what a unit is in dollars for the money you actually have set aside, so a bad week is a bad week and not the end of the bankroll.
Because a $20 bet means something different to a $200 roll than to a $5,000 one. Sizing by percent keeps the pain the same at any bankroll, and it shrinks on its own when you are losing, which is exactly when it should.
We don't. Every play on a BPE ticket is flat one unit, bolts or not. The bolts tell you how many signals lined up, not that the bet is safe. Flat sizing is the one rule that has never cost us money.
Once a month, not once a night. Set the unit on the first, leave it alone until the next first. Chasing your own hot streak with bigger bets is how a good month turns into a flat one.
