How is this calculated?

You set a maximum number of rolls before starting. Each logged roll adds its cost to a running total and count. The tool flags when you have reached the limit you set, based on your own inputs, not a predicted outcome.

How many times have I rolled this option position, and what has it cost me in total?

Q: How many times have I rolled this option position, and what has it cost me in total?

Tracks the number of times a losing option position has been rolled against a limit you set in advance, and logs the net cost of each roll to show a running total.

The traders who last aren't the ones who never lose. They're the ones who never guess.

Set Your Roll Limit

Set this once before your first roll. Resetting starts a new position.

Your Result

Set your roll limit on the left to start logging rolls on this position as they happen.

How this is calculated

This tracker logs each roll's net cost as you enter it, so the running total is an actual figure instead of a guess.
Set your roll limit before you place the first roll. Deciding it in the moment, after you're already emotionally invested, defeats the purpose.
Use the roll cost calculator above to get the exact net debit or credit for each roll before you log it here.
This tracker resets when you set a new baseline. Note your running total elsewhere if you want a permanent record across sessions.
