You'll be able to trade without being swayed by win rates or methods.
▼1. Recent developments

“Everything becomes FX” moves between domestic and international locations about half of each month. I’d like to inform you where I am now, what I’m seeing, and who I’ve met and worked with domestically.

This week, I am in Shenzhen (I was there).
In China, because of internet restrictions called the Great Firewall (Golden Shield), services like Twitter and Facebook, originating in the United States, are not accessible by normal means.
Moreover, information inconvenient for the Chinese Communist Party, such as the Tiananmen Square event and the Tibet issue, cannot be researched.
During my stay I searched with Baidu, China’s equivalent of Google, but I couldn't get used to it and gave up…
That said, considering 1.3 billion people living under these regulations, I can’t help but feel enormous potential.
Shenzhen, where I was this time, is reputed as “China’s Silicon Valley” and is said to be one of the rapidly growing cities over the past decade. A common saying is that “ drones fly over the city” (laughs).
I didn’t get to see that firsthand, but I could feel the tremendous momentum from Chinese drone leader DJI, among others.
Now, this week’s result of the “Weekly Trades You Can’t Tell Anyone About” is +475 pips. Lately gains have been steady, which feels a bit dull. The truth is, this approach earns its destructiveness when losses occur, so there’s a half part of me that hopes for a small loss.
When things are going this well, it also means that when things are bad, they can be just as bad, which makes me a little fearful…
That said, all we can do is trade calmly and steadily.
Yesterday’s update could not be made due to various circumstances (I notified on Twitter); this update will serve as a replacement for that.
Now, let’s do our best again this week.

“Weekly Trades You Can’t Tell Anyone About” takes positions with an edge from the 1-hour, daily, and weekly timeframes, and from market trends. However, its essence lies more in money management than in trading itself.
This method’s win rate is 50%. Since it feels like about 40% in experiential probability, those who cannot endure unless the win rate is above 80% will probably not be able to practice it. Conversely, it should be informative for those who can think long-term profits.
