Position-Level Metrics
- Risk Per Trade (RPT): Percentage of account risked on each trade
- Risk-Reward Ratio (RRR): Ratio of potential profit to potential loss
- Stop-Loss Distance: Distance from entry to stop-loss in price units

Portfolio-Level Metrics
- Total Risk Exposure: Aggregate risk across all open positions
- Correlation Risk: Degree of correlation between positions
- Concentration Risk: Exposure to specific markets or sectors
- Drawdown Potential: Maximum potential account drawdown
- Portfolio Heat: Measure of overall portfolio risk intensity
Performance Metrics
- Sharpe Ratio: Return relative to risk (volatility)
- Sortino Ratio: Return relative to downside risk
- Maximum Drawdown: Largest peak-to-trough decline
- Recovery Factor: Return divided by maximum drawdown
- Profit Factor: Gross profit divided by gross loss
Risk Adjustment Metrics
- Volatility Multiplier: Position size adjustment based on volatility
- Correlation Coefficient: Measure of relationship between positions
