Most traders start out with a negative expectancy value. It is inherent in human nature, that betting on prices with risk and rewards doesn't come natural to us. Each individual principle increases the trader's expectancy value because a new mindset towards opportunities and risks, as well as practical techniques, is taught - until your expectancy value as a trader gets positive and the compounding effect, which is unique to short term futures trading, can take effect.
