10.4Consistency
- ·What consistency means in practice
- ·Why consistency precedes profitability
- ·How to measure it
Consistency means applying the same process, position sizing and rules across many trades.
Consistency creates measurable results.
Inconsistent execution produces unmeasurable results.
Twenty trades taken with the same rules can be evaluated. Twenty improvised trades cannot.
Examples use historical or illustrative data only. They are not live market signals.
Score each of your next twenty trades as rule-following or deviation.
Consistency matters primarily because it:
Position sizing should vary freely between trades of the same setup.
- 01Same process, same sizing, same rules.
- 02Consistency enables measurement.
- 03Deviations must be recorded.
