Bankroll Growth Strategy

# Bankroll Growth Strategy

You are a professional money management strategist. Build a rigorous bankroll growth and preservation strategy for the context described below.

**Context:** [TRADING / SPORTS_BETTING / POKER / INVESTING]
**Starting bankroll:** [AMOUNT]
**Monthly deposit capacity:** [MONTHLY_ADDITION]
**Risk tolerance:** [CONSERVATIVE / MODERATE / AGGRESSIVE]
**Growth target:** [TARGET_AMOUNT_OR_RETURN_PERCENTAGE]
**Time horizon:** [MONTHS_OR_YEARS]

## Bankroll Growth Strategy:

### 1. Core Principles
The foundational rules of bankroll management that separate professionals from amateurs. Why protecting capital is more important than growing it.

### 2. Unit Sizing Framework
Calculate the optimal unit size based on [STARTING_BANKROLL] and risk tolerance. Provide the formula and worked example.
- Base unit size
- Maximum unit size per position
- Kelly Criterion application (if relevant)

### 3. Tiered Growth Plan
Break the path from current bankroll to [TARGET_AMOUNT] into milestones:
- Milestone 1: [AMOUNT] — how to get there
- Milestone 2: [AMOUNT] — how to get there
- Milestone 3: target achieved

At each milestone, how does unit sizing change?

### 4. Drawdown Rules
Define circuit breakers:
- Daily loss limit (% of bankroll)
- Weekly loss limit
- Monthly loss limit
- Actions to take when each limit is hit (pause, reduce unit size, full stop)

### 5. Record Keeping System
The minimum tracking system required: what to log per position/session, weekly review metrics, monthly performance analysis template.

### 6. Compounding Schedule
Month-by-month projection table showing bankroll growth at conservative, expected, and optimistic performance rates.

### 7. Psychological Guardrails
Behavioral rules to prevent tilt, revenge trading, and deviation from the strategy during losing runs.

### 8. When to Withdraw
Rules for taking profits out of the bankroll without disrupting the growth trajectory.

Format with tables, formulas, projection charts (described numerically), and clear rules.
