About stable profitability

Some people say that to measure whether a trader is good is to see whether he can achieve stable profits.

I think this is too misleading.

Let’s add a time latitude to this sentence. In a short period of time, such as one year, if the market situation does not match your own trading system, then there is a high probability of a capital retracement, and it is normal to lose money for a year.

But if the time period is lengthened, such as 5 years, and the market can include both the unfavorable and favorable periods of the system, then it is also a high probability event that the average income will achieve positive growth.

Therefore, traders must have a clear understanding of their own systems, and must accept the control of losses during unfavorable periods and the release of profits during favorable periods. #交易策略
