In our recent conversation, Brian Lee shared an equity curve simulator tool, and that was a complete game-changer for me.
In the simulator, you enter your win percentage, your risk/reward ratio and a time period, and you really get to see your projected results over time.
When you are trading, when you are “in the moment”, you only see each individual trade, each loss, and each win. In one day you may lose 6 trades and you may only win 2 trades, leaving you with a pretty bad win/loss ratio.
