1-3-2-6: every cycle ending

The 1-3-2-6 plan advances through four stakes after consecutive wins. A loss at any stage resets the next stake to one. Four wins also reset the sequence. A stage's stake is fixed by the sequence, rather than calculated from the accumulated profit.

Enumerate the complete cycle

A cycle can finish ahead despite its final bet losing, as the third row shows. It can also finish exactly level after three wins and one loss. Calling every cycle that ends with a loss a losing cycle would misreport these results.

On a European wheel, let p=18/37 and q=19/37. The five path probabilities are q, pq, p²q, p³q and p⁴. They sum to one. Combining them with the listed net amounts gives the expected cycle result under the chosen full-loss-on-zero rules. The four-win outcome occurs about 5.60% of new cycles; it should not dominate the description of the system.

Keep stage and balance separate

Starting with ten units does not guarantee completion of every branch. The largest required stake is six, and a table maximum below six prevents that stage even if the current wallet can afford it. A run that hits a limit needs its own recorded stop reason.

The named 1-3-2-6 preset in the audited development source uses the four stakes and reset-on-loss convention above. This guide does not imply a currently released app version.
