What Is the “Impossible Goal” and Why It Works

The Impossible Goal: set an audacious target and behave as if it’s achievable.
Why it works: forces creative experimentation, expands skillsets, and accelerates learning.
Outcome: Trading With The Pros webinar series reported progressive results — 432% (2020), 872% (2022), 1167% (2023), 1710% (2024), and 1680% (2025).

Core Principles of Impossible Goal Trading

1) Mindset Shift — Assume Possibility

Believe the goal is possible to unlock resourcefulness and new strategies.
Replace limiting rules with experiments that challenge assumptions.

2) Rewrite Your Trading Rules

Move beyond “standard” rules that cap returns (e.g., fixed 10% risk/10% reward).
Think structurally: change position sizing, planned capital, and exit rules.

3) Risk Redefinition and Capital Planning

Lower average structural risk per trade to protect against black swans.
Adjust planned capital to amplify percentage returns while managing drawdown.

4) Add Tactical Tools — Technicals + Experimentation

Combine technical analysis with novel tactics.
Systematically test new ideas rather than only backtesting rigid rules.

Practical Steps You Can Apply Today

Set an audacious, clearly defined Impossible Goal.
Write down your current trading rules and beliefs. Identify three to challenge.
Reduce structural risk per trade (smaller planned capital or tighter structural risk).
Experiment with risk-reward setups that allow larger percentage gains while controlling loss magnitude.
Track trade-by-trade returns off planned capital to measure progress.
Iterate: keep what scales, discard what doesn’t.

Common Objections — Addressed

“It’s luck.” Consistent, year-over-year gains suggest a repeatable process, not pure fluke.
“You can’t avoid big losses.” You can design lower structural risk to limit catastrophic drawdowns.
“Numbers are creative.” the results are fully disclosed in our calculation method (trade-by-trade returns off planned capital).

Results and Why They Matter

The Impossible Goal produced unusually high, consistent returns by shifting mindset and reconstructing risk and capital rules. Whether you reach the exact headline numbers or not, the process grows skills exponentially and creates repeatable edge.
