Shownotes

In this episode, I cover my interpretation of the Kelly Criterion to help determine the optimum position size for a credit spread strategy. We'll talk through the basic idea as well as the four factors or variables you need to calculate the Kelly Criterion. This episode will give an example for applying it to a credit spread strategy but the Kelly Criterion can also be used for other strategies too.
