Overly pursuing a high win rate usually leads to the worst outcomes.
It's counterintuitive, isn't it?
Because those who chase high win rates are inherently "afraid to admit defeat." They can make nine small profits in a row, only to blow up on the tenth because they refuse to accept a loss.
The final loss often takes all the previous gains plus the principal.
True professional traders:
Their win rate might be below 80%, but when they win, they make big profits; when they lose, they lose small. This is the magic of the "risk-reward ratio."
Conclusion:
Don't ask whether this trade will win.
Ask: If I lose, how much will I lose? If I win, how much will I earn? #CPI数据将公布 $ETH

You just single-handedly pushed all my margin when we just talked?
