High Win Rate vs. High Profit: Which One is More Important?

In stock trading, there are two types of people: Those Who Care About Win Rate: These traders focus on making as many winning trades as possible. For example, out of 100 trades, they hope to profit from at least 80 or 90 of them. Those Who Focus on Profits: These traders are less concerned with the win rate. Instead, they concentrate on the overall profit, aiming to maximize the profit on individual trades.

I can generate a 100% win rate by playing extremely conservative options.... but profits is very low. High win rate is easily achievable. But not high profits. The end game is gains , not win rate

I used to sell itm put for max profit but I end up badly esp baba and rivian which I am stuck for a year trying to recoup the loss. I decided to change my trading style and x 10 my profit and also reduce the risk. I embarked on selling option vertical starting from April. I recoup all my losses and bring my annual ror to 100 percent. Alright, we need to always take profit and bring profit to fixed income. so I will cash out my profit now and keep my principal the same again. Happy trading.  High win rates is more important than profitability. Painful lesson but not too late

US deficit rate has risen again and again!

The fact that the market has pulled back is also inextricably linked to the macro! $S&P 500(.SPX)$ $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ The latest report from the U.S. Congressional Budget Office expects the deficit rate to rise from 5.6% to 7% in fiscal year 2024, with the size of the deficit increasing to $1.9 trillion. This adjustment signals the further force of the U.S. fiscal policy, market liquidity and the real economy will be supported, but the urgency of the interest rate cut may therefore weaken.Key Info1.

US deficit rate has risen again and again!
In the world of stocks trading, a longstanding debate revolves around the importance of high win rates versus high profit. While both aspects are crucial, I firmly believe that high profit is more important than high win rates. High win rates often prioritize consistency over significance, focusing on making numerous small wins rather than substantial gains. This approach may provide a sense of security and stability but often limits potential earnings. On the other hand, prioritizing high profit requires a willingness to take calculated risks and aim for substantial returns. This approach acknowledges that losses are inevitable but seeks to maximize gains when the market aligns. In my opinion, a high profit focus leads to greater long-term success, as it encourages traders to be more sele

The Future for Investors: Why the Tried and the True Triumphs Over the Bold and the New

In his 1994 bestseller, The Future for Investors: Why the Tried and the True Triumphs Over the Bold and the New. Wharton Finance professor Jeremy Siegel told investors that the best long-term investment is stocks, not bonds or cash. He is also a big fan of index investing. The surprising conclusion: For investors, the best stocks are not those in hot new industries. More often than not, the best stocks are boring, traditional companies. Siegel concludes that investors can improve on index investing by holding stocks with lower price-to-earnings ratios, higher dividends and holding 40% of their stock portfolios in foreign stocks. What caused the conclusions, traditional stocks to outperform the more exciting innovators? "The answer is simple," Siegel writes. "Although new companies grew f

An ideal balance between win rate and profit will depend on individual trading strategies and risk tolerance. Some traders prioritize a high win rate with smaller profits, while others aim for larger profits with a lower win rate. Essentially, the combination of both is needed for sustainable trading success.

Many years back, when I was starting out in investment. My friend shared with me the concept of trading edge.  The default of any entry position into stocks is 50:50. Up or down. What sets 1 investor/trader Apart is the % of success.  To do so, investors/traders focus on ways to increase their probability. Be it fundamental analysis, technical analysis, charts, Marco economics. Why the focus on win rate over high profits? That's cos investors/traders want a substainable way of making consistent profits.  Hitting 1 good trade and making profits of 1million like the crypto and meme millionaire maybe great, however, can they repeat it? The issue is cos of human nature. Money that comes easily, parts easily. That's the reason why many lottery winners end up even worse off than b

High profit more important, of course. If a battle could determine the final victory of a war, the number of  lost battles previously are not important.
Actually portfolio grows in values and has  positive return is the most important.  Consider  1. High  rate of small wins but 1 big loss that erase all the wins 2. High rate of small losses but 1 big win that more than cover the small losses. When those investor workhops talk about the important of high win rates, it hinges on the assumption that each investment is based on a same amount. In real life, we know it is not possible.  We read about Berkshire Hathaway magnificent return but this requires an investor tremendous patient to not cash out. How many can actually do that.  And how many can wait for that day to come? Depending on your age and year of entry,   you might be in your senior years to enjoy the profits and ho

simple thinking :  when u play darts. You can either consistently hit the board (high win rate), but maybe only in the low point zones. Or, you can aim for the bullseye (high profit) but miss more often. Therefore I am a strong believer that small, steady wins (high win rate) feel better. It keeps your confidence up and helps you avoid those stressful losing streaks. This is especially true if you're looking for a reliable income stream when you are older.  You can achieve this with a good stratgy on options trading which I shared on tiger trading feed . follow Share and like ok:)  High profit trades are awesome, like hitting the bullseye, but they can be trickier and harder  to find. i would leave them for long-term investments in strong companies where you're com

Investment Reflection on GOOG Stock

Investing in GOOG $Alphabet(GOOG)$  stock has proven to be a rewarding decision so far, particularly considering its robust performance in the year-to-date period. GOOGL shares have surged by 25.5%, outpacing the industry's growth of 21.2%. This significant outperformance can be primarily attributed to the stellar performance of Alphabet's Google Services segment. The Google Services segment, which encompasses critical components like Search, YouTube, Android, Pixel, and various first-party web apps, has been the cornerstone of Alphabet's revenue growth. In the first quarter of 2024 alone, revenues from Google Services surged by 13.6% year-over-year, amounting to $70.4 billion, and accounting for a substantial 87.4% of Alphabet's total r
