You're in this trade, and you have to go to sleep.
Do you:
a) leave it overnight
b) close position
c) take partial profit
d) move stop up (if so, where)

Today I bought my first house. A small farmhouse in the Italian countryside with a cherry and peach orchard. It's not big or fancy, it needs a lot of work, but it is mine, 100% debt free.

Capital preservation should always be your number one priority.
Clawing back capital becomes exponentially harder as losses deepen.
A 50% loss needs a 100% gain just to break even.
A 75% loss needs 300% to recover.
Opportunities will always be there, but will you?

Over the last week or so I've had the pleasure of working with KRTrades who kindly let me work his old trading rules into some visuals. While they have changed and evolved, I believe they still offer some fundamentally sound advice.

Can you handle 10 straight losses?
In 100 trades:
A trader with 30% accuracy is almost guaranteed a series of 10 losses.
A trader with an 80% hit rate still has a greater than 50% chance of 3 consecutive losses.
You can't control outcomes, but you can manage your risk.

Something I keep coming back to in
@jimtalbot
's interview is his 'epiphany' - of taking variable, discretionary setups and making them fixed and systematic.
Repeatable, consistent and emotionless. Actually pretty boring - but effective.

A small creative project I've started to help me think about variance and emotion in trading.
I'll consider each flip as a trade with a 50% win rate, imagining the highs and lows of the streaks that unfold.
I will flip 10 coins 10 times every day until I get 10 heads (white)…

Some news regarding VA.
Nearly a year ago, when I set up VA – I couldn’t dream I’d be where I am today. It was an impulse decision to give me something productive to do with my time. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, apart from one aspect - the name.

Trading is addictive. In a 24h market, it is easy to feel you are missing out. You aren’t. Remember, in your head, you play every trade perfectly, which is seldom the reality.
