Haha, made you look! Anyhow, how often have you heard this cliche "High Probability Low-Risk Set Ups". Let me expose the BS in it. Mathematically.... If you have a high win%, you're NOT going to have a high avg. win/avg. loss ratio. Vica Versa, if you have a fat avg. win/avg. loss ratio - you're NOT gonna have a high win %. "High Probability, "low-risk"" exist only in promotional materials of snake-oilers.

But let me expound on what kiwi_trader said.....
The phrase: High Probability Low-Risk Set Ups does not <b>necessarily</b> imply anything about average wins/losses or % wins/losses. It simply means what it states.
Haha dummies. You're just pissed I Made you look.

"Low-risk" means your stop is small compared to something... Now.. compared to what? Use your brain now... COmpared to average profit. So that means a high Avg. Win / Avg. Loss ratio.
