Just wanted to illustrate something I have learnt and follow up that previous post....
Its been said here in no uncertain terms not just to get blinkered by a high win ratio or net pip count if the r:r is poor.
Just had a quick play using different tf's and settings to show what I mean:
Bad r:r using 15 min EUR/JPY (note the high win ratio!)
Good r:r using 30 min EUR/JPY (note a lower win ratio, much lower, but why is the pip count slightly higher.....).
