Learn, try and understand your own portfolio.
Learn with your own numbers, test a buy or a sell before you make it, and see simply where your risk is and what each decision would change. With the calculations big funds use every day, which rarely reach private investors — explained in plain words.

- Free to start, no card
- Analysis, not advice — it never places orders
Big funds measure their risk with maths your broker's app doesn't show you.
Independent bets
How many genuinely separate positions you hold, once you account for them moving together.
Open the lesson ›Value at risk (95%)
The loss that one session in twenty was worse than.
Open the lesson ›Conditional VaR
The average loss on the days that were worse than the VaR.
Open the lesson ›Correlation
How much two holdings move together, from minus one to plus one.
Open the lesson ›Stress tests
Replays past market episodes on the weights you hold today, to see how far the portfolio would have fallen.

Open the lesson ›Sphinx Risk does it for private investors,
on their own portfolio, in plain words.
Learn with your own numbers
Every lesson is worked on your own portfolio: what a measure means, and what it says about what you hold.
Return per unit of volatility: how much you were paid for the swings you put up with.
- Annual return +7.9% ÷ annual volatility 17.9%.
- 0.0794 ÷ 0.1793 = 0.44 (with a zero risk-free rate).
Understand your risks, simply
Which holdings carry your risk, how far your portfolio has fallen, and what each decision would change.
And every Monday, an email tells you what changed in your week.
Your broker tells you what you have.
Not what you are exposed to.
Export your trades from your broker, drop the CSV or Excel file, confirm: the whole history measured in a minute. Free to start, no card, and nothing is saved until you confirm it.
No advice, no orders, no promised returns. The full limits ›
