Monday & Tuesday Winners…and Losers?
Mark | May 20, 2008We have continued the run of good trading conditions for most of the markets we’re tracking. It’s the ideal mix since we’re seeing very clear set-ups on the buy and sell side, which is the idea with the Simple Plan. It’s quick to learn – which is key. You’ll be trading it successfully much quicker than before.
Even more important, is seeing how it reacts after a losing trade. Sure, we enjoy focusing on the winners, and you’ve seen plenty of them but no trading strategy survives without limiting losses, and without coming back strong from a loss. This is real trading — but, we know with our avg. win/avg. loss ratio above 1.50 and the win/loss ratio coming in strong we’re set-up to handle the wins AND the losses.
For example, on Monday the Russell lost its first trade — after that it had 3 winners and 1 break-even. The Crude markets were choppier on Monday and came in negative for us — today in 30 minutes we were done with 2 winners that swamped the prior day’s losses.
The lesson? It’s the bottom line profits that count. And, it’s how you get there. Avoid the larger drawdowns, quickly recover and have a strategy that is consistent enough and simple enough to execute upon.
