Hi, again Steve.
Don't you worry if 62.5% of bigger A-B can be reached?

Hi Justin,
This is the unknown aspect, for me, which Scale is Price Trading at?
Scale Increases with Volatility.
This is why I like to Trade within my Trading Window of 6am to 1pm (UK Time) when Price has a Lower Volatility and hence a Lower Scale.

I need to be able to Anticipate Price before it happens not after the Fact.
It's no good if I am afraid of being Proven Wrong, I often am

Totally agree—focusing on individual trades can be misleading. I’ve found that keeping detailed metrics like risk per trade, win/loss ratio, and R:R really helps you stay objective, just like Trading in the Zone emphasizes. Tracking stats not only prepares you for inevitable losing streaks but also reinforces discipline and confidence in your setups over the long run.
