Allocation with volatility
-
Dear @support
I was going through the rules and also need clarification regarding the allocation amount with volatility. Please correct me if I am wrong below:
The target vol is 5%. If say, I secured rank 1 for $1,000,000 but vol of my strategy is 20%, then my allocation with be 1/4th, which is $250,000?

@vg2001 Sorry for the delay. It is a bit different, we reserve the possibility to scale down volatility to 5%. This can happen if the algorithm (for example) concentrates allocations in a few assets and becomes inherently very risky to be traded.
