I don't know what your point was, so if I made it, it was accidental. And, no, you didn't say above average, you said 90%. But a "high winrate" needn't be 90%. But for a beginner, it sure as hell needs to be a lot better than 30%.

Unfortunately it is so far hindsight, and if the entry isn't provided until after it's taken, that will be hindsight as well. How difficult is it to state in advance what your entry price will be? The so-called MACD divergences took place long ago, so there must be something else you're waiting...

Do you have tourette's?

Is this directed to me or to the OP?

If by "these guys" you're including me, "reward" is impossible to determine in advance, and, no I don't scale out of trades. Can I assume we won't be hearing any more about your trade ahead of time?

You're making assumptions that are not inherent in a high winrate. For one thing, "big" is a matter of interpretation. One can have a 90% winrate with a 1t loss and a 9t win. But 9t are hardly anything on which one could retire. When translated to money, a 90% winrate can mean bupkus. As for...

I don't know what you mean by "getting on a roll with", but psychologically, if that's what you're referring to, #1 is far more likely than #2.

With enough inside information and a million dollars, you can go broke in a year. -- Warren Buffett

Technically you are correct that a high P:L ratio has nothing to do with a high winrate. But you are incorrect that "high profits almost always means low win rate and vice versa". A high winrate is essentially a function of how the entry is managed. A high P:L ratio, however, has to do with how...

They'd be satisfied with equal rights. Like the Constitution guarantees.

Like "corporations are people"?

No, it is not "exactly what [I am] being provided with". I'll try again. "I remember something along the lines of 'go long crude'. When? At what price? Are you buying Sunday night? Monday morning? What price are you using for your entry stop? Or are you entering at the market?" You said you...

If you want serious, you will probably have to look past BSAM. :)

You seem to have misunderstood him. He waits for the opportunity, then takes advantage of it. This is considerably different from saying that one sees an opportunity that may or may not come up eventually and that it may or may not be taken according to criteria that haven't been specified...

If this is to be your journal, fine. But if so, you would do well to provide a lot more detail, for example, all those divergences which you did not take at the time and which would have resulted in losses. Hindsight is fine if presented with a detailed plan. Otherwise, it's just cherry-picking.

I see no difference between his claims and those made by others in this thread, none of whom apparently have mirrors in their homes. Big hat, no cattle.

Well, if Barbra Streisand can do it . . .
