When I said that only 20 percent of winners make your funds grow I just reported a statistical study I had been inspired to make on my transactions with this other successful trader whose name I cant remember at this time.
If you make 100 trades per year using a 50% winning speed, you may have 50 losers and 50 winners directly?
Stats reveal how only 10 of these 50 winners will make your capital grow.
By this I mean that only 10 transactions out of 100 are those types of trades that make you plenty of money by hitting all of your targets.
It was a bit unfortunate of you to state that I should be looking at each trade as if it were my first one and that I basically trade to repay my losers.
I dont know any trader that wins large all the times. Are you one of these? If yes, I'll give you my money to control and you can keep 40% of earnings.
If you've got a stable grid, 50% winning speed, 2:1 R/R ratio and solid money management, your equity will grow slow but steadily. Thats how you get wealthy overtime and thats how you remain alive in the terrible times.
Are all of your winners exactly the same size? Or do sizes of winners vary from trade to exchange?
If you just happen to have distinct sizes of winners such as most traders, then you have to know that only the huge WINNERS are individuals who radically alter your bankroll. Reductions are paid for by the tiny winners.
Its exactly the same as any other business where only 20 percent of your customers are individuals who make your earnings while the remaining 80% pay for overheads, salaries, etc.. .
I suggest that people in here, before coming up with hasty statements about someones trading fashion, read the others' posts twice and ask for explanations in case things dont make much sense.
Good fortune
