Why Can a Trading Strategy With a High Win Rate Still Lose Money?

In cryptocurrency trading, many people pay close attention to their win rate. Winning eight out of ten consecutive trades looks quite impressive. But if the account is still losing money overall, the problem may not be the win rate, but the amounts won and lost on each trade.

Suppose a trader makes 10 trades, with 8 winning trades that each earn 10 USDT and 2 losing trades that each lose 50 USDT.

The 8 wins bring in 80 USDT, while the 2 losses result in a loss of 100 USDT. Even without considering fees and funding rates, the

What Is Scaling Out of Profits? Why Can Taking Profits Gradually Help Traders Balance Profit Protection with Staying in the Trend?

In crypto trading, when prices reach expected targets, traders often face a dilemma: closing a position all at once locks in current gains but may mean missing further market moves; continuing to hold offers the chance to earn more, but also carries the risk of a price pullback. Scaling out of profits offers a way to manage a position, so traders do not have to make every decision at a single price level.

First, what is scaling out of profits?

U S Stocks Plunges in the Wake of Midterm Elections as AI Trade Faces Biggest Crisis Yet......

#加密市场承压 The latest crypto market downturn was first triggered by declining risk appetite in broader markets, with leverage within the crypto market amplifying the losses. The two factors compounded each other, explaining the broad sell-off better than any single crypto-related news item.

How much did external and internal factors contribute?
The trigger came from U.S. stocks: AI and semiconductor stocks plunged, the Nasdaq fell 5.52%, and Bitcoin broke below $76,000.
Leveraged liquidations amplified the losses: Around $1.1 billion was liquidated in 24 hours, more than 90% of it from long posi

$3 TRILLION GONE IN A SINGLE DAY. The market is sending a serious warning.

To put that into perspective, the reported losses have exceeded the $2.6 trillion wiped out during the COVID market crash.

Several pressures are now hitting investors at the same time:

- Persistent high interest rates
- Weak demand for government bonds
- Rising oil prices fueling inflation concerns
- Escalating geopolitical tensions
- Political uncertainty following election results

But there's another major concern: the AI boom.

The growth story that pushed markets higher is now facing a reality check. AI infrastr

$ZEC An imbalance between longs and shorts has created a longer-term range-bound market
Dense long zone below: 1180-1220
Dense short zone above: 1340-1360
Why focus primarily on range trading? zec is moving against the broader market
A breakout above 1360 would open the way for an uptrend, with a target of 1400-1440
A break below 1180 would open the way for a downtrend, with a target of 1040-1080
I’ve been repeatedly emphasizing these levels since last month
At this stage, it’s all about seeing which side prevails in the final battle

A reminder: U.S. October nonfarm payrolls data will be released tonight at 9:30. If it comes in above expectations, the odds of a Fed rate hike may rise further; if it comes in below expectations, the odds of a Fed rate hike in December may fall. These expectations have had some impact on the market following hawkish remarks by two Fed officials yesterday, though the impact was not because of them. At 5:30, Williams, the Fed’s No. 3 official, will also speak—let’s see whether he takes a hawkish or dovish stance

The snow is falling so quietly~
Today my bestie gave me a talking-to:
She said I’m always checking the markets,
and keeping up with world affairs,
so boring!😹
Go do something “unlike you”!
Life’s too predictable,
and you slowly lose your spark…
I do feel like I’m becoming more and more like a man
I don’t even enjoy dressing up and taking photos anymore…😅

Isn't Paraguay's bank rug actually bullish for crypto neobanks?
I doubt Paraguay will be the last country facing this issue.
Imagine waking up and suddenly losing access to your savings because your local bank collapsed.
And in countries with weak institutions, the risk of people losing access to their money is even more concerning.
This is exactly why I think crypto neobanks have a massive opportunity.
Hold USD-denominated assets, tokenized gold, or BTC without being fully exposed to your local banking system or currency.
Of course, crypto neobanks come with their own risks, but the demand fo

November 6, 2026 (Friday) ETH Futures Strategy for Today (based on the current range of approximately $2,220–$2,230)

Core view (bearish; cautious about rebounds)

ETH has quickly pulled back from around $2,420 to around $2,220, breaking recent support, with weak short-term momentum. Today, prioritize looking for a short if a rebound stalls, or consider going long only after a retest of lower support. Keep positions light.

Specific strategies

1. Shorting a rebound (primary strategy)

• Watch zone: $2,270–$2,320 (or near $2,350)

• Entry reference: Consider a small short if signs of s

SOXX GOES FROM ONE UNIT TO THREE: WHAT DOES GATE'S 3-FOR-1 STOCK SPLIT ADJUSTMENT REALLY MEAN?

BEFORE VS. NOW: WHAT IS CHANGING?

Before the adjustment, SOXX traded under its existing share structure. Following the announced 3-for-1 stock split, each existing SOXX share is divided into three shares, with the price per share adjusted proportionally.

Gate has announced that it will support this corporate action across three product categories: perpetual futures, CFDs and stock services.

The important point is that a stock split changes the number of units and their individual prices. It does

U.S. stocks suffered a sharp selloff on Thursday, with the Nasdaq closing down more than 5% and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index falling over 12%. AI and chip stocks including $NVDA and $AMD were hit especially hard. Markets are reassessing AI valuations, data-center spending and future returns. Is this just short-term deleveraging, or the start of a deeper correction in the AI trade? Which sectors are you watching next?
