A small edge is any measurable statistical tilt in your favor.
• A 52% win rate with a 1.5:1 reward/risk ratio.
• A pattern that yields +0.2% on average after a certain setup.
• A volatility filter that reduces drawdowns by 8%.
That doesn’t sound like much. But apply that edge over thousands of trades, and now you’re looking at a serious return.
The market is a game of inches—not miles. And those inches are hidden in the cracks most traders ignore.
The tragedy is that most people sabotage themselves because they want to feel smart, not be profitable.
They dismiss a +0.2% signal because it doesn’t make them feel like a genius. Or they can’t sit through a drawdown on a system that’s right 55% of the time.
