Win Rate vs Risk-to-Reward
I prefer a good risk-to-reward ratio with a solid strategy. You don’t need to win every trade to be profitable.

Spot on! Focusing on a solid risk-to-reward ratio means you don't need a high win rate to stay profitable over time. A setup aiming for 1:2 or higher allows you to absorb multiple losses while still protecting your account balance.
When trading with prop firms, managing your risk-to-reward is closely tied to daily loss limits and drawdown rules. A high risk-per-trade strategy can quickly breach strict daily limits even with a decent edge, so proper position sizing remains essential.
