11/4 – ETF Trading – Special Focus on EWC

As I mentioned in my previous post, we took a trading loss on EWC, eventhough we followed our etf trading strategies and signals. As much as we would like every trade to be profitable, real trading, even high probability trading, can result in losses.

The goal in trading is to adopt a proven trading system, and then to follow that system, consistently and systematically. Overtime, your trading results will be profitable.

Trading results for EWC for the past 2 months are posted here. As you can see, we had a trading success rate of 75% !
