Why 61% Win Rate Traders Still Lose Money
Chapter Summary
Analyzes broker research across millions of retail trades. Retail traders won 61% of EUR/USD trades (averaging 48 pips profit), but their losing trades averaged 83 pips (70% larger than wins), resulting in an average EV of -3.09 pips per trade.
"Being right most of the time is not the same as making money most of the time — that is why this notebook refuses to assume more than a coin-toss-level hit rate, and asks the ratio to do the real work instead."
Key Takeaways
- ✓Retail traders win most individual trades (61%), yet lose money overall.
- ✓Uncontrolled loss sizes quietly destroy high win rates.
- ✓Holding a minimum 1:1 profit ratio makes traders 3x more likely to profit.
