Hi there

In the manual it is stated that Z1, Z2 and Z12 systems use an equity curve trading mechanism for reducing the expiration risk of single components, and also that OptimalF factors are used for distributing the capital among the components.

Elsewhere it is also stated that if a component is unprofitable, OptimalF is 0.000

Why is it necessary to use both the equity curve trading mechanism and Optimal F allocation?

Shouldn’t OptimalF allocation be enough and just assign 0 value to unprofitable components?
