What Kind of Trader Are You?

You will be taken to the Trading Preference page where you can personalize your trading preferences, risk tolerance, markets you are looking to trade in, and what you are looking to accomplish through Brutus. Here you must begin by clicking on the “What kind of trader you are?” box.

Risk Tolerance

In this box, you tell Brutus what your level of experience is with options trading. Choose from the selection provided in the pop-up box and click ‘Next.’

The next section addresses your tolerance for risk. Risk tolerance is an important measure when investing because it helps guide recommendations (suggestions) for trades that are in line with your level of comfort with investment risk; the possible loss of all of the capital you invest. Choose your preferable risk level by moving the slider toward either less risk (conservative approach) or more reward (aggressive approach). Then click ‘Next.’
