Probability of Next Trade

  1. It can be proven if P(a)*p(b)=P(A intersect B)

    I don't believe this is something you can conclude on face value. By the way if you've ever waited for the market to hit your bid and then keep chasing it to have only missed beautiful price run, you can at least imagine how his example would hold.

  2. "There are beliefs held by some traders that are likely wrong. Some say that after
    a string of losing trades success on the next trade is more likely, so position size on the next trade should be increased. According to Larry Williams: “After you have had 3 or 4 losing trades in a row, the probability of the next trade being
    not only a winner but a substantial winner is way in your favor.” This may
    or may not be true in trading, but for most random events like flipping coins, it is definitely not true."
