    You've found the holy grail, if you can exchange with 1:1 75% of this time.

Now I be right 50 percent of this time on a 1:3 and just can have 10 reward. I like not having to be much. Isn't that the point of analysis; being in a position to identify risk in probability trades?

    Trading a MACD with the current and larger trend will provide you close to that wont it?

    I really don't know, but you need to borrow as much money as possible from anyplace and trade it for a year, if you're able to win 75 percent of the time with a r: Indicator of 1:1. You will not ever have to worry about money.

    Trading egies return to this. It is all about getting an edge. If someone asks, Are you making money? I love to reply with a. If I am given an edge, and also my money direction by my machine gives me an edge should not I be profitable when I follow the rules? That's exactly why the casinos won't let someone that has taken their edge bet away. Because then it isn't gambling, it's investing.

    By exaplining the basics of probability, I am not going to insult your intelligence, but you're wrong. This is not an opnion, it's a fact. If you are able to win 1 80% of the time and lose 30 20 percent of the time, you will be hugely profitable. Sure, if you have one loss you have to win three occasions to break even, which is where you're getting stuck.

    A few more great quotes and we will have the ability to release a best of CD.

    20 percent is a good return on risk. You can earn money. The only problem I have this manner is that you HAVE to maintain ratio or your own profitability slips away. 6 steps ago, or acquire 80/lose 60, however you look at it's only good if you have a solid system you have backtested and forward analyzed to be consistent, and also have drawdowns. It works. You might have problems if your system has any input that is discretionary.

    The reason why I now like a 1:3 egy, is that I can still be wrong 70% of this time and make 20%. For a discretionary trader like myself, who thrives in 40-60 percent, it makes having a bad series more forgivable. I would have to lose 80 percent of the time to choose a reduction. On your 3:1, in the event that you only win 70% of the time (believe 7 out of 10 trades) you lose 20 percent. I would have the leeway, as well as the potential.
