One of the lesson that I learned is that I have to trade many trades before I evaluate my performance.
Before when I was starting after one or two loss in trading i immediately get frustrated in the outcome of my trade. Then will blame the system and look for another system that I believe must work 100% all the time.
I want to share my performance experience in my parabolic sar trading system. From January 2016 to April 2016 i have an average win of 65%. And you know what the least performing month is April 2016.
It's only about 50% winning percentage.
But to my surprise if I will count pips on each month, it was the highest points of all.
Eventhough it has low winning percentage, since I use good risk reward ratio if the system works in favor of the market, it reap off good profits.
This shows how important is journaling, I learned to love losses in trading. One of the mistakes of a new trader is that they believe that being consistently profitable in trading means trading at 100% correct.
Trading is winning and lossing. The main point here is how much did you earn when you wom, and how much did lost when you loose.
