The first thing we cover on the course is not indicators but position size. It decides whether an account survives a losing streak.
A stop-loss is not an admission of error; it is the pre-calculated cost of testing a hypothesis. If the stop is not defined before entry, there is no trade.
Expectancy shows what an average trade earns given your win rate and reward-to-risk ratio. A positive expectancy plus discipline matters far more than the entry point.
