Dear All
This message are for those who have systems which are around 70% win rate R:R of 1:1 and where you do around 30 trades per week,
My trading has been going well for 2 months experiencing mostly winning days but in the last 7 days I have experienced 5 losing days which is by far the longest days losing streak and not something i saw in the back testing. Is it normal for a 70% win rate system to go through likea 5-7 days of losses where I am trading about 3-4 trades per day and where the system is operating like a 30% system. Nothing has changed in terms of anything. Just keen to know whether anyone else experiences this type of variance.
Now I understand randomness and that after making £25,000 in last 6o days that I shouldnt be complaining but man when you hit 5 days where it seems like everything is broken, its still a shock to the system.
-£500
£450
£365
-£540
-£250
-£125 (reduced positon sizing by 50% due to a rule which comes in after 2 straight days of losses)
-£250 (reduced positon sizing by 50% due to a rule which comes in after 2 straight days of losses)
Just to help here are my statistics so far for the last 65 days
