English term or phrase: gets to continuously make and re-make decisions
In a continuous process, the participant gets to continuously make and re-make decisions that can affect how much money he makes or loses. On the other hand, a discrete event (e.g., a football game, roulette, blackjack or other casino game) has a defined ending point, which is characteristic of external losses. A loss resulting from a discrete event is definitive and not open to interpretation. When I bet on a Kentucky basketball game and Kentucky loses, it is a discrete event and an external loss that I can't really argue with. Or, if I bet on 21 black in roulette and the ball lands on 17 red, I lost — period.

se permite decidir a mudar alterar a decisão continuamente


Explanation:
O termo crucial é a expressão idiomática "to get to XXX" que significa 'ter a ocasião/oportunidade de XXX" o que quer que seja o verbo XXX Nesta frase específica, a expressão (também idiomática, em português) "se permite" flui melhor do que "tem a ocasião/oportunidade O que acontece é que as circunstâncias (do mercado) permitem essa flexibilidade de mudar de rumo ("to make and re-make decisions"). Como soe acontecer em textos sobre finanças, o original não é muito bem escrito. Uma escolha melhor do que "continuously" seria "...the participant gets to change decisions at will"

Isto sem falar no split infinitive que, corrigido (mas retendo a má escolha "continuously"), seria "...the participant gets to make and re-make decisions continuously, and such decisions may affect how much money... "
