🚀 Improve Your Consistency Score: Simple Steps & Math
No complex strategies needed! Boost your CR by balancing profits smartly.
Here’s how:
📊 The Golden Rule
Target: (Your Biggest Daily Profit) ≤ 40% of Total Profits Improvement = Add smaller wins to "dilute" big wins
🔧 5 Practical Methods
1. Partial Profit-Taking
Instead of: Closing a $10,000 trade at once
Do:
Close $5,000 today → "Win 1"
Close $5,000 tomorrow → "Win 2"
→ Biggest win = $5,000 instead of $10,000
Example:
Original | Partial Close |
Biggest Win: $10,000 | Biggest Win: $5,000 |
Total Profit: $15,000 | Total Profit: $15,000 |
CR = 67% ❌ | CR = 33% ✅ |
2. Add "Buffer Trades"
After a big win, trade micro-lots:
Day 1: Big win = $8,000 (CR=100% ❌)
Day 2: Trade 0.1 lots → +$300
Day 3: Trade 0.1 lots → +$250
New CR = $8,000 ÷ $8,550 ≈ 94% → Still ❌ but improving!
3. Scale Position Sizes
Problem:
5 lots → $5,000 win = 100% of profits ❌
Fix:Trade 1 lot/day for 5 days → Five $1,000 wins
CR = $1,000 ÷ $5,000 = 20% ✅
4. Avoid Losses During Rebalance
Critical! Losses reduce total profit → CR worsens:
Biggest Win: $5,000
Total Profit: $10,000 → CR=50% ❌
Take $2,000 loss → New Total Profit = $8,000
CR = $5,000 ÷ $8,000 = 62.5% 😱 (Worse!)
5. Diversify Assets
Spread risk across instruments:
Day | Asset | Profit |
1 | Gold | +$2,000 |
2 | EUR/USD | +$1,500 |
3 | Nasdaq | +$3,000 |
4 | Oil | +$800 |
Biggest Win = $3,000 (30% of $10,000 total) → 30% CR ✅ |
|

📈 Improvement Roadmap
Starting Point: CR = 70% ($7,000 biggest win ÷ $10,000 total)
Action | New Profit | New Total | New CR |
Add $1,000 win | +$1,000 | $11,000 | 64% ❌ |
Add $2,000 win | +$2,000 | $13,000 | 54% ❌ |
Add $3,000 win | +$3,000 | $16,000 | 44% ❌ |
Add $1,500 win | +$1,500 | $17,500 | 40% ✅ |
💡 Tips for Rapid Improvement
Trade Smaller After Big Wins:
After a $5K win, switch to 0.5-lot trades ($100-$500 targets).
Use the 30% Rule:
Never let a single trade exceed 30% of your account growth goal.
Dashboard Alerts:
Set "CR >35%" warnings to act early.
🍕 Think Like a Pizza Chef:
Bad: One slice = 80% of the pizza
Good: 8 equal slices → each 12.5%
Goal: No slice (win) dominates the pizza (profits)!
