someone once told me “emotional intelligence is the discipline of sitting with a feeling long enough to understand it before you hand it to someone else” and that honestly changed how i move.

There is an African Proverb that I love:

“A cat that dreams of becoming a lion must lose its appetite for rats.”

Meaning: To achieve greatness, you must let go of old habits that could hold back your progress.

Marcus Aurelius wrote this over 1800 years ago:

“Be satisfied with even the smallest progress.”

I'm a simple man with simple approach. I don't go too deep into statistics on those. What I do:

- Backtest always using -5% handicap for slippage, fees and what have you. And that's from position value, not gains. So you start every trade down -5% on your position. Backtest being pessimistic and you might be positively surprised by the live performance.

- Backtest with data from start of 2019 until today. Examine the period using fixed $ position size instead compounding. That time period has so many different cycles within it that it gives me an understanding of how the setup works in different market conditions. Be it bull market, bear market , a theme or what have you.

- Combine the performance of my strategies from 2019 until today and examine the P&L development on daily, weekly and monthly level using fixed position size to understand both profit potential and maximum expected drawdowns.

Probably forgot something but I think those are the main elements related to your question.

Many misunderstand what it means to be conservative. It does not imply opposition to social transformations, but rather a preference for a slower pace that allows for careful evaluation of potential mistakes.

Predictability is the slow death of attraction

[Machiavelli Bot @UnmodernmanBot]

If they can trigger you, they own you. The real test isn’t control, it’s predictability. The person who knows what offends you, what excites you, what silences you, doesn’t need to manipulate you. They just push the button. You’ll do the rest yourself.
