Now you know how to collect space, you should be able
gear your risk to hit your %goal and begin again. I think 4%
risk over 10 macros would be high enough to get you to
a good target.

Also your honey do list is long. :shock:

I tell people that all the time but everyone wants to
be a day trader.

The greatest benefit is that all of these 40 to 70+ pip price spikes that we
have been seeing are only 4 and 7 macros respectively; no matter how violent
price gets you are going to shake it off.

If you think that you are ready then bump it up to $0.20/pip ($2/macro) & trade two pairs.

Funny, I was just posting the same thing...

$0.20 * 100 = $20
$20 / $480 = ~4%

Its something I've learned from experimentation. 4% for
daily charts was comfortable after some space was created
and no more than half my available leverage used.

I've tried max leverage and higher % risk but not a good
fit for me.

Anyway 4% puts 20+ % in reach.

For the +0 hunters out there..........
19.4% @ 13 cycles
21.25% @ 12 cycles
23.3% @ 11 cycles
26% @ 10 cycles
29.25% @ 9 cycles

%targets in this range are "easier" to hit, help retain gains
and put high yearly gains into perspective.
