Default Example for trading system

Hi, Dave!
I can't understand something about percentage of the trading system that you mentioned in the lesson "47. Why Position Sizing is So Important in Trading". I see the things this way: 60% are the profits and the 40% are the losses from the account for that trade. Or may be 60% is the amount of the account that we should invest. I don't understand this very good. Would you explain that, please?
Thank you!

Hi Mista_kei,

In this particular lesson I am talking about the win to loss rate. So in other words if I have a system that has 6 profitable trades and 4 unprofitable trades this system has a win rate of 60% and a loss rate of 40%.

Let me know if that does not make sense.

Best Regards,
Dave
