Re: TygerKrane's Pip-Pickpocketing

You really don't have to use all your space or max out your leverage for that matter if you are targeting 21% targets. This is how I do it: Let's say that you have $1000 and you are targeting a new balance of $1212 max size = ($212 / 88), $2.40 This brings the target within reach of the daily candl...

Re: Aliassmith Beats a "Dead Horse"

I began a new cycle today and I started it with
.69% of my account. I'll continue to accumulate
until I hit 22ish% and start again. :D

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy

You are good at the first phase of accumulation , You see what I focus on, thanks for the compliment. hehee Not so fast: This account is NOT my macro pip acct. it is my AJ scalp...

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy

The market has patterns because of the people and humanly programmed computers that trade them. This is what I see. I "win" 7 to 12+ interactions in a row gaining 6-12 macro pips. I continue to use the same lot size. I will possibly double size once but then take much fewer pips. As the &...

Re: Aliassmith Beats a "Dead Horse"

This is now my personal risk and accumulation management. Stolen and bastardized from the work of Brookmyre - who came up with...

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy

Yes, it is problem solved. If I NEVER added to a loser since 2008 Then making my first million would be a mute point. Which trading method I used would be a mute point. Using space would be a mute point. All you would see here on this thread was $5k to $500k REPEATEDLY. Say helllooooo, to my random...

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy

Ok. But $47k, New Dodge Challenger Even adding to a loss CAN work if lot size is kept proportional. The last 5 trades have netted much more than my current loser.

Re: Aliassmith Beats a "Dead Horse"

My personal opinion is risk control is a must have and should be rule #1 in a trading Rigorous risk management is at the base of any long-term successful trading operation, both at the trading system level as well as at the portfolio level. You can't generate profit if you don't assume any risk, bu...
