The Mathematics of Consistency: Why AI Beats Intuition
In venture capital, one "Home Run" investment pays for 10 failures. In trading, one failure (liquidation) can wipe out 10 wins. The mathematics are different.
Consistency > Intensity.
The Flaw of Human Bias
Humans suffer from cognitive biases that destroy wealth:
- Recency Bias: "It went up yesterday, so it will go up today."
- Loss Aversion: Refusing to sell a losing bag because "it will come back." (Psychology Trap).
The AI Advantage: Probabilistic Thinking
An AI model doesn't care if it lost money yesterday. It evaluates the Current Probability based on data.
- If the Backtest shows a strategy has a 65% win rate, the AI takes the trade every time.
- A human might hesitate after two losses. The AI executes.
Compounding requires avoiding "Zeros"
If you grow your portfolio by 50% for 4 years, and then lose 100% in year 5, you have zero.
- AI Risk Management (Stop Losses) prevents the zero.
- If you prevent the catastrophic loss, the math of compounding takes over.
Trust the math, not your gut.
