you needed a 20 point rally to get to 3010 and get those profits when adding to a loser. you only needed a 10 point rally to get 1400 in profit adding to a winner. that is the biggest difference. holding a 4 lot for the entire 20 point move or holding a 1 lot for 10 points and a 2 lot for 8 pts...

again. volpri will never tell you or show you when he actually stops adding to a loser or what his max loss is or max position on a trade because he trades a demo acct and will just keep adding until the mkt turns. he also cherry picks his last 2 good entries before the mkt turns to make it look...

this is 1 of the better threads. let me show you how to answer the entry vs exit debate. If entry is everything to you then you dont use a stop loss. why would you? you dont want to exit. if exit is everything you would use a stop loss because you want to exit. its depends on your strategy...
