How QuantumX Sizes Risk and Exposure
How an approved signal becomes a position within the customer's selected allocation and risk settings.
Signal quality and position size are separate decisions
A qualifying setup answers whether the strategy is permitted to act. It does not by itself determine how large the position should be. QuantumX applies a separate sizing process tied to the customer's authorized allocation and selected risk setting.
Keeping these decisions separate prevents a strong-looking signal from bypassing the boundaries chosen for the account.
Software capacity defines the maximum authorized allocation
The licensed capacity is a software ceiling, not brokerage capital supplied by QuantumX. Customers choose how much of their own eligible brokerage account to authorize, up to the capacity of their plan.
The brokerage balance can be larger than the authorized allocation. Funding activity does not automatically express consent to increase software capacity or risk.
Controls reduce risk; they do not remove it
Defined sizing, entry permissions, and protective rules can constrain software behavior. They cannot guarantee a stop price, eliminate market gaps, prevent broker outages, or make leverage harmless.
Customers remain responsible for selecting settings they understand, monitoring the account, and using capital they can afford to lose.
