I will re-emphasize how important it is to HOLD all winning trades until the extent of the move (reversal), to ensure long term profitability as a short-intermediate term trend trader: March monthly Win Rate = 36% only. So, I’m winning 1 in 3 trades, but check out the Win/Loss ratio = 4.25x. For every dollar lost (risked), I won $4.25 back. That is why I take all signals, because it is a challenging endeavor to know with certainty which signals will manifest as asymmetric winners — I have no way of really knowing which signal is going to move big — so I take all of them. These are the type of stats, where reproducible have the makings to pull out lots of profit from the markets. A system that keeps you in a winning trade and gets right out of losers — that the secret, moreso than win rate.
