How I achieved 13.83% By Improving My Forex Win Loss Ratio

The Investor Diary Entry #92: November 30, 2025

Designing a trading plan has been the main focus of my work for the past four weeks, and this update captures exactly how the process unfolded. Everything began with my goal of improving my Forex win loss ratio and building something I could rely on in the long term. Trading education has always been the base of my approach, and once again, returning to proper material made a difference.

Building a Solid Forex Trading Plan from Education

I’ve said many times that trading rests on two pillars: a trading plan and a money management system. Both only work when they stand on a solid base of education. This is why I document every stage of designing my plan. To me, everything starts with knowing the material, understanding the different trading schools, and then shaping a plan that fits my personality.

I began this phase of the experiment with the SMC method. Mechanically, it was excellent. But My Win Loss Ratio in Forex Trading during that period was almost four wins to sixteen or seventeen losses. Even with high RRR, that kind of performance simply pushes the account downward. It became clear that I needed filtering rules and more structure.

Searching for Filters That Actually Work

My first attempt was to apply filters from the classical school. Support, resistance, and trend lines gave more confirmations, but they pushed me back into subjective decision-making. I added the EMA 100, and later used Fibonacci retracement for a while, but none of them truly fixed the win/loss issue.

The turning point came from new educational content that introduced a different way of using the daily and weekly stochastic. I wasn’t introduced to the indicator itself, but to a method of using it, and that became the foundation of the design I’m now working with.

The Stochastic-Based Approach That Changed the Plan

The idea was simple enough to test. On the daily stochastic, I look for price moving into the 32 band for buys, and for the K crossing the D, hopefully below that level. If that aligns, I look at the trend for support. This includes confirmations from RSI, SMC direction, the trend line, and classical levels.

Some situations remain unclear, like a pair showing mixed signals between indicators, and in those cases I simply do not take a trade. The plan is straightforward: check the stochastic, check the confirmations, and decide if the trigger makes sense.

Four Weeks, Four Batches, 13.83%

The results came from taking trades in batches.

Week one started on October 24th and closed on the 29th, giving 6.23%.
The second batch closed at around 2%.
The third batch brought the total to 8.6%.
The fourth batch ended with 13.83% after four weeks.

The important part for improving my Forex win loss ratio is that the win loss ratio became more than two to one. Twenty-five wins and twelve losses, with losses shrinking over time. Not a single batch closed negative, and that helped the account balance and my own psychological balance. Confidence builds when the numbers stay consistent.

FAQ

What is a good win loss ratio for forex trading?

Based on my experience inside this experiment, a good win loss ratio for forex trading is one that supports the account’s growth while keeping psychological stability. For me, moving from a disastrous ratio to more than two wins for every loss changed both results and confidence.

How did education influence these improvements?

Education introduced me to new ways of using tools like the stochastic, which became the trigger for the daily timeframe method. Every improvement came from returning to material and finding ways to apply it.

Does this involve complex multi-timeframe work?

Right now, no. I am trading the daily timeframe only. I do not use lower timeframes like the 3-minute chart because I do not know what to look for there while working from the daily.

How to find Forex Trading Courses Online?

By following the same path I am following: looking for educational material that explains trading schools clearly and helps you understand how to design your own plan. The key is choosing material that improves clarity rather than adding confusion.

Conclusion

These four weeks showed that education, structure, and a clear trigger can reshape a trading plan. My focus on the daily stochastic, supported by SMC, classical tools, RSI, and EMA, helped stabilize both results and confidence. I still need to refine the money management side, and the testing phase will continue until December, but I now have the beginning of a plan I can depend on. Future updates will focus on trades themselves, and the journey will continue from here.
