As you've highlighted on your 3rd trade, potential profit:risk is more important than win rate.
But I am aiming to improve my win rate by eliminating losses. Sometimes... no, many times, I just 'know' I have entered at the wrong time. If I can break this tendency I would be doing much better.
Well that will of course help massively, but if you could also start to ride out your winners longer, these will more than make up for the small losses incurred along the way.
It seems that you get in at the start of the move quite often, you need to find a way to keep you in.

Ok, trades made this morning. All three were on the short side, my figuring was that the market should breakdown @ 780.00 and move into the low 770’s. I am posting this to see if my figuring was correct and that I should have held onto the last trade.
