This is what I see, next 00 coming up.
I will have to start another position from just below there
as my current position will be taken out -2%.

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy
Instead of a flat x% I will risk x% per pip so that my space can be of any size.
$400+ accounts: 0.025%, 8x smaller than 2% over 10 pips
$1000+ accounts: 0.01%, 20x smaller
$5000+ accounts: 0.004%, 50x smaller
$10000+ accounts: 0.002%, 100x smaller.
The #1 rule to making money is that you do not lose it; the closer that you can get to risk free the better.
Yes you do
But just as $0.02 doubled every day for 26 days is a large number, so are your pennies multiplied over a period of
time to a large number; $0.20/pip doubled once per day for 14 days becomes $3276/pip.
When I set a weekly loss limit of 0.5% it looks like this:
(0.5% / 0.002) / 50 space = 5 trades.
Yours might look like this:
(5% / 0.025) / 40 space = 5 trades...
& by 'trades' i mean the total destruction of 'space' (DoS Attack? lol)
Now you can see how when I lose 35 pips at 0.002%/pip, for a loss of 0.07%, I bust out and move on to the next trade; at this risk level, +39% is lost in hundreds of trades! Losing my money becomes a full time job
When your initial size is small then you can take big gambles because there is 'nothing' to lose and everything to accumulate.
But when your size becomes very large then you need to sober up and move with the larger charts.
Hopefully you can finally see that Space Wars is not pips, it is about conquest.

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy
This crap can be twisted any way you like,
Roses and buttercups floating around everywhere.
FACT is.
I take a risk and I am willing to lose the whole *censored - swear word* thing.
I set my hard stop and gladly watch it get taken out. Next.
When I move my stop closer by ADDing lot size,
I'm 100% willing to watch it go poof too.
This is a new paradigm for me,
I've NEVER felt this way while trading before.

Ok, Ok, yes, I do trade pennies. LOL
I need to ponder this today, I just can't see how such little itty bitty can become so friggn big.
And yes, with the risk your taking. Losses are a Joke on the market.

So basically we are breaking down the weekly total risk into 5 trades using 40 pip stops on each.
Continue reducing space add nauseum as the market moves in our favor.
I don't like that, feels too much like trading for pips to me.
I want a POSITION/SL set and then work from that point upward with my total of what I'm willing to risk.

It is just further illumination.
No one will force you into the light

Re: ProchargedMopar's Trading Trilogy
Once I turn my first $500 acct into $5000
Im wondering if the powers that be will allow me to do it over and over and over PUBLICALY until I die. (Hopefully 40+ yrs.)
For some reason a few here have actually "succeeded" but then they disappear.
What gives?
What is the truth?
What obstacles stand in the way from such a task?
$500 to $5k reset
$500 to $5k reset
Etc.
Will there be too many copy cats?
Will there not be enough $$ for all the followers to get filled?
Hmmmmmmm

You say to double a $0.20/pip. When would you do that, When you accum. 35 pips or 50 pips?
