Why Is One Loss More Expensive Than Many Gains?
Because in trading, percentages don’t work the way your emotions think — they work the way math thinks.
And math is brutal.
---
🔴 Example:
If you lose 50% of your capital,
you don’t need 50% gain to recover…
you need 100% gain to come back to the same level.
That’s why one big loss can destroy the profit of many small gains.
---
💡 Here’s the truth:
• Small gains increase your balance slowly
• But one large loss cuts your balance deeply
• And the deeper the cut, the harder the recovery becomes
This is why professional traders don’t aim to win always — they aim to avoid big losses.

⚠️ What Traders Often Forget
You can recover from many small losses.
But one large revenge trade or emotional entry can wipe out weeks or months of progress.
---
✔️ The Golden Rule:
Protect your capital first. Profits come later.
That’s why stop-loss, risk management, and emotional control are more important than any strategy.
---
💬 Pro Tip for Traders:
Never risk more than 1–3% per trade.
Many small wins + controlled losses = long-term profit.
---
🧠 Remember:
In trading, survival is the REAL skill.
If you protect your capital, the market will always give you another opportunity.
If you lose it, the game is over.
