Volente's 10 point rule

10 point rule.png
 
Stops & targets. If win rate is below 50% (always expected to be near 30%), then reward has to be no less than x3 the stop, which has to be outside current high/low of whatever time frame is being traded. Selling highs in downtrend and buying lows in uptrend (opposed to initiating a trade in middle of moves) may decrease win ratio, yet potential reward will ultimately be appropriate to offset losses. If required stop level increases risk to capital above 1%, then trade not to be taken. All this preferably RTH.
