What is Monte Carlo simulation in forex risk management?

Monte Carlo simulation runs thousands of random variations of trades to estimate possible outcomes. For example, it may shuffle trade sequences to reveal how different streaks affect account equity. Institutions use Monte Carlo to stress-test systems against randomness. Retail traders can apply it with software tools to evaluate drawdown risks. Benefits: realistic range of outcomes beyond average expectations. Risks: complexity and misinterpretation if inputs are flawed. Monte Carlo proves that trading results are probabilistic, not linear—helping traders prepare for losing streaks and tail events that traditional backtests may overlook.
