I want to share a very important lesson I've learned just this month.
THE IMPORTANCE OF STATS
At the start of this month, I had nearly decided to not trade the US30 at all.
Because I thought it is "spiky" and I don't make money on it.
Nasdaq is smoother and much better.
However, I simply couldn't stop trading US30. It always attracted me and provided an opportunity.
I carried on trading US30 as well as Nasdaq I went ahead and did a thorough analysis of all the trades.
I found that US30 is not bad. It is actually my BEST market.
US30 Results for Nov 2021:
Win Rate: 78%. (shockingly high)
Total Profit: 12% (Challenge account holders will dream of this)
Profit Factor: 5.28
Another lesson from this analysis: I can clearly see why we can simply stick to 1 or 2 markets and continue to trade our method. There is really no need to trade multiple markets. I can assure you that these results are from one of my accounts on which I trade for someone else. I trade very conservatively on this account. On another account, US30 has brought me over 25% this month. So, that's t he other important lesson.
