How the loss sequence is calculated
Ending balance equals starting balance multiplied by (1 - risk fraction) raised to the number of losses. Each trade loses the chosen percentage of the remaining balance. Intermediate values are not rounded. This differs from losing the same cash amount on every trade.
Why recovery takes a larger percentage
Recovery is measured from the smaller remaining balance: (starting balance / ending balance - 1) times 100. A 20% loss needs a 25% gain to recover. Zero remaining balance has no finite percentage recovery. Extremely small balances can fall outside the supported monetary precision.
