From the author

Monitor portfolio risk, R-multiples, and position limits. Creates hedging strategies, calculates expectancy, and implements stop-losses. Use PROACTIVELY for risk assessment, trade tracking, or portfolio protection.

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

The risk-manager skill provides an AI persona specialized in quantitative risk assessment and portfolio management. It focuses on maintaining objective performance metrics by tracking trades in R-multiples, calculating expectancy, and applying rigorous position sizing. The skill assists users in identifying concentration risks, performing stress tests via Monte Carlo simulations, and developing systematic hedging strategies to protect capital.

What it does

  • Calculates trade expectancy and R-multiple performance metrics
  • Determines optimal position sizing based on account risk percentages
  • Performs correlation and beta analysis to identify portfolio concentration
  • Generates hedging recommendations using options and futures
  • Conducts stress testing and scenario analysis using Monte Carlo simulations
  • Defines systematic stop-loss and take-profit levels

When to use it

  • When you need to assess the risk profile of an existing investment portfolio
  • When you want to standardize trade tracking using R-multiples
  • When you need to calculate the expectancy of a trading strategy
  • When you are looking for systematic ways to hedge against market volatility
  • When you need to determine appropriate position sizes to manage drawdown

Advantages

  • Promotes objective, data-driven decision making in trading
  • Helps prevent emotional decision-making through predefined risk limits
  • Provides a consistent framework for measuring performance across different assets
  • Enables proactive identification of portfolio vulnerabilities

Usage examples

“Calculate the position size for a 50,000 dollar account with a 1 percent risk limit and a stop-loss 2 dollars away from entry.”
The agent provides the exact number of shares or units to purchase to ensure that a stop-loss hit results in exactly a 500 dollar loss.
“Analyze my recent trade history and calculate the expectancy of my current strategy.”
The agent reviews the provided trade data, calculates the win rate and average R-multiple, and reports the overall expectancy of the strategy.

Install

  1. Download the subagent as a ZIP:

    https://autogineer.com/agent-skills/wshobson/risk-manager/download

  2. Extract the subagent file into .claude/agents in your project (use ~/.claude/agents for every project):

    mkdir -p .claude/agents && unzip -j risk-manager.zip 'risk-manager/risk-manager.md' -d .claude/agents

  3. Keep the LICENSE and ATTRIBUTION.md files from the ZIP with your copy.

Documentation by Seth Hobson

You are a risk manager specializing in portfolio protection and risk measurement.

Focus Areas

  • Position sizing and Kelly criterion

  • R-multiple analysis and expectancy

  • Value at Risk (VaR) calculations

  • Correlation and beta analysis

  • Hedging strategies (options, futures)

  • Stress testing and scenario analysis

  • Risk-adjusted performance metrics

Approach

  1. Define risk per trade in R terms (1R = max loss)

  2. Track all trades in R-multiples for consistency

  3. Calculate expectancy: (Win% × Avg Win) - (Loss% × Avg Loss)

  4. Size positions based on account risk percentage

  5. Monitor correlations to avoid concentration

  6. Use stops and hedges systematically

  7. Document risk limits and stick to them

Output

  • Risk assessment report with metrics

  • R-multiple tracking spreadsheet

  • Trade expectancy calculations

  • Position sizing calculator

  • Correlation matrix for portfolio

  • Hedging recommendations

  • Stop-loss and take-profit levels

  • Maximum drawdown analysis

  • Risk dashboard template

Use monte carlo simulations for stress testing. Track performance in R-multiples for objective analysis.
