I'm interested in the cash risked vs. Cash gain. I can make plenty with $1 million dollar account. I am seeing how efficient I can be by reduced risk with max size for what I'm working with.
Maximum size on maximum rides

Yes, I agree. When you already maxed out your size you should max your efficiency as well.
I already mentioned the concept and what to do in my previous posts. My regular Anchor trades also clean session pips (and sometimes even several sessions) and it's based purely on fractals. Sam's S/D is an addition to catch the ultimate top/bottom which I was never able to do consistently before while RTM's FTR is to catch whatever move that my fractal and S/D missed.

RTM is ReadtheMarket.com
FTR is Fail to Return
I am not an affiliate of nor do I endorse RTM. I mentioned it because that's where the concept came from.
Weird this post never showed up until now. Kreslik has been off a bit lately.
Thanks for the response and yes I can see what you are doing. I am at the figuring out the why are you doing it point.
It looks like some of your entries are preemptive and your what if list must be long.
Yes, it's very long. 2 full thick books, written down manually since more than a decade ago.
Yes, some are pre-emptive some are not. I can't understand why people only teach that we have to move only after the fact (confirmation). In mixed martial arts and real street fighting, you take whatever chance you are offered by the opponent. It could be a small window of chance, it could be very quick, it could be risky. But for sure, you also need to learn how to do different types of attack (grappling, boxing, kicking, clinching) to go along with that. If you get into the ring knowing only boxing and 1 type of punch on top of that then you know you're doomed no matter what Bruce Lee said. Lucky for us, the stamina in fighting is regarded as capital so you can maintain the level of injury that you will have to take if you're wrong.
For a reference, Bruce Lee said and I'm paraphrasing "I'm not afraid of someone who knows 1,000 kics but I'm afraid of someone who learn 1 type of kick and practice is 1,000 times"
Personally, I think that is idiotic because it really depends on the person. If the person is lazy then yes knowing 1,000 kicks is useless for him. But if the person is devoting himself to the mastery of the art then you know for sure those 1,000 types of kicks are deadly.
