Trading Is Really Just A ‘Game of Chance’
Though it’s not presented as such, investing and trading are both games conducted on the playing
field of Chance.
Mathematical Probabilities are always at the foundational root of every action taken and, results can
be largely anticipated (even though they’re seldom made public!).
There are ‘elements’ or parts that make up each investor’s ‘trading equation’ and, which, when
added together yield the overall likelihood of success or failure in the long-term from our investment
and trading in the markets.
Here’s the important point: Alter any one of these trading ‘elements’ and, we’ll alter the final results
of of our actions.
What does this mean? It means that if we can INCREASE the Odds of Winning in a few of the
elements that make up the whole trading equation, then, we’ll realize Greater Profits when all is said
and done. To be profitable, we need to INCREASE the Winning percentage of our trading
methods.
It’s Not The Winners We Need To Consider . . .
All Games of Chance have ‘runs’ of winners (called good ‘Luck’ or a ‘winning streak’), and, ‘runs’ of
losers (called ‘bad Luck’ or a ‘losing streak’).
It turns out that both of these are more controllable than we’ve been led to believe.
For a truly random ‘flip of the coin’ , the odds are always 50-50 or 50% of winning or losing.
On the table below, looking at the 50% column on the left and, reading to the right column, we’ll
discover that with those 50-50 odds, we can expect, eventually, to have up to 16 Winners in a row.
However, on the flip side (of that same coin), we can also expect to have up 16 Losing trades in a
row as well, and, that is where the Success and Failure part of the ‘equation’ comes into play.
. . . It’s The Losers That Are The Problem!
As Investors, we have to control our losses as part of money-management or risk control. The ‘risk’
referred to is nothing more than that shown on the chart above. If we know how many potential
‘losers’ we may look forward to in the future, then, we can calculate how much money we’re
willing to assign to each loss in order to preserve our trading accounts. If we lost 3% of our account
on each loss, we’d eventually have a time when we’d lose almost 50% of our account in one single
losing streak!! Losing half of one’s account requires we’d have to make 100% in order to recover!
Commit This Table To Memory - It’s Critical To Know!
This brings us to the table below which is essential to understand in order to drive home the basics
of investment losses vs. gains. Note the Loss column on the left.
The Odds: How Much It Takes To Recover From A Loss
When we lose 50% as shown in the example on the page preceding, look to the right column to see
how much must be made in the future to recover from the loss in the left column. In the 50%
example, this is 100%. That’s hard to do and, a rare investment return to find. This solid math lies at
the root of all investing and trading. We can’t escape them, so, we need to work with them.
The above chart shows the table in a graphic form.
Find the loss incurred or expected on the bottom horizontal axis, then, go vertical to find the
intercept to the red curve and read on the left Vertical axis what the needed return will be to recover
from the original loss.
In the case of our previous 50% loss example, we’d go to the 50% point on the horizontal scale at
the bottom of the chart and move our fingers up vertically to the point where we intersect the red
curved line.
Then, at that point on the chart (which we see as the first vertical line), we go to the left vertical axis
scale and find that we are at the 100% point on the chart.
This shows that losing 50% of our account requires making 100% just in order to recover!
As stated earlier,100% returns on investment are rare events and difficult to achieve.
So, what is one to do?
There are two courses of action will reduce this possibility of loss happening to our own investment
or trading accounts.
* RAISE YOUR ODDS OF SUCCESS By switching to a HIGH WIN-RATIO TRADING METHOD!
* DECREASE THE LOSS PERCENTAGE PER LOSING TRADE to 1% or Less!
Here are the steps in order:
FIRST: We must increase the Odds of our trading success beyond 50%!
Sadly, many trading tools and methods have only 50% or less probabilities associated with them.
Can we do better? Most assuredly!
The G.R. Harrison Trading Collection has developed a number of VERY HIGH (85%++) WIN
PROBABILITY TRADING METHODS. Contact: george@wdgann-lost-secrets.com
Increase Your Odds of Winning - Increase Your Profits!
The above graphic reveals just how dramatic the number of winning trades in a row become when
one increases the Win-Ratio of their Trading Method.
The above table gives an even greater insight into just dramatic the changes can be to the positive
when we increase our Win Rate using a new Trading Method.
Here, the yellow represents losing trades for each Win Rate from 5% to 95%.
Here’s how to read it:
Let’s start with our original example of a ‘coin-toss’ percentage of 50-50 or 50%.
First, we find the 50% odds on the left column.
Secondly, we follow that horizontal percentage line to the right to see how many yellow-filled boxes
there are. These represent 100% odds of losing trades in a row.
For the 50% odds line, this shows that there are 100% odds of losing 7 times in a row. Also, the next
box shows a 98% loss probability as well.
Essentially, then, there are virtually 100% odds of throwing 8 heads, tails or having losing or winning
trades in a row over time (in this case 1000 trades were used as the total run).
Longer runs of losing trades become possible over a longer sequence of trades (that’s where the 16
losing trades shown previously came from).
It becomes clear then, that in order to become more consistently successful, we must INCREASE
OUR WINNING ODDS!
Now, let’s see what we can accomplish when we take advantage of HIGH WIN RATE
TECHNIQUES. These may be obtained at: www.wdgann-lost-secrets.com
When we move to Trading Methods with 85%++ Win Probabilities (like those within the G.R. Harri-
son Collection mentioned above), we transition into an entirely new world of profit opportunity.
Go to the 85% Win Rate column on the left and, note when going to the right along that probability
line that we now encounter not 7 yellow boxes, but, only 2 with 100% loss probabilities.
The non-colored box following is at 97%, so, only 3 losing trades in a row are the norm and not 8 as
before at the 50% Win Rate level.
The 90% Win Rate column provides the same low number (with the 3rd non-colored box at only 63%
instead of 97%).
Essentially then, with High Win Rate Trading Methods, we can expected fewer losses in a row which
greatly aids the bottom line.
Keeping ones loss percentages very low (1% and under) is equivalent to increasing our Win Rate as
we’re reducing our needed exposure to market risk in order to recoup losses.
The more exposure to the markets, the greater the risk of losses as well as winners. So, we need to
keep losses as small as possible and let winners grow as much as possible. That’s the winning
balance.
So, there you have it.
A solid foundation to the game of chance called ‘investing’ and, that previously elusive thing called
‘Luck’.
The odds are great that no one ever explained this critical factors to you before.
Better now, though, that never.
And, there’s great news here for all investors or traders.
It turns out that you can improve your ‘Luck’ after all, but, only if you’re willing to take steps to place
yourself in the special, very small group of investors who want to control their lives instead of being
controlled by fuzzy circumstances ‘beyond their control’.
You now know that there is control available, but, you’re the one who must exercise it for yourself.
Improving your Trading Odds of Success is the way to do it as is controlling the losses you’ll accept.
