>>But, what if the trading system had a success rate of three winners for every four trades? You'd have a 75% chance of making 20%, while only a 25% chance of losing 10%. With that particular trade, your real reward-to-risk ratio would be about 6 to 1.<<

The real question is how do you find out your system's
effectiveness. such data normally is not available.
For example, can you give us your systems ratio of recommended
stocks that hit you targets to the ones that hit the hit
the stops? It would be very valuable indeed to have such a ratio for a trading system.
