What the numbers show
Average win: +1.57%. Average loss: -0.89%. Wins ran larger than losses this week (roughly 1.8x), which is the direction you want that ratio pointing — it's what lets a sub-50% win rate still add up to a profitable week.
Winning trades were held for an average of 18 min before closing. Losing trades were held for an average of 6.0 hours — roughly 19.6x longer. That shape (cutting winners fast, giving losers more time) is the same pattern behind the disposition effect: a bias toward locking in small wins quickly while letting losing positions run.
