GPBUSD MT3 HILO Range Trader - Risk Reward and Winning Ratio Study

Projected Risk Reward is the most important part of a system for me.
I like to know in advance what I can achieve, in fact i cannot trade without it.
My preferred style of trading is 100% suited to my choice of system.

I use the average range as a target objective, I use a 2.5% risk factor and a technical stop + ticks.

Killer trades really do come in and make a huge difference to your PNL.
This is technique is not apealling to scalpers but more for intraday position traders who can hold a trade all session if need be.

Risk reward and winning ratio study winning ratio: 10% 9 Losses @ 15 pips = 135
1 Win @ 150pips = 150
PNL: 16

winning ratio: 20% 8 Losses @ 15 pips = 120
2 Win @ 150pips = 300
PNL: 180

winning ratio: 30% 7 Losses @ 15 pips = 105
3 Win @ 150pips = 450
PNL: 345

winning ratio: 40% 6 Losses @ 15 pips = 90
3 Win @ 150pips = 600
PNL: 495

Looks great on paper but how many times can you do this is the question?
Hindsight is the answer around 35% to 40% is the average winning ratio - the average risk reward is 3 times less than the objective risk reward
So we realise around 1 to 5 in performance results.

The Key is that the system offers some great risk reward oppurtunity which is realised depending on on the times we trade etc...
You are not always there for when the best trade comes along.... Stats are not skewed by outliers as they are in a trending system instead you are protected by the hitting the ultimate objective which is predefined - no need to let winners run with this game. This is all preset and precalculated.

All you need to do is learn how and be there at a the best time to go fishing and see what happens :-)
A Systematic approach will net some of these perfect trades for you that is a guarantee..it is a question of probability.
