More importantly How?

Why would I have a scalping account yet be down 1000 pips on a trade?

7.5 yrs interacting with forex and this is the best I have to offer?

WTF?

You MUST have defined risk in $ and pips. ALWAY set
your stop loss and NEVER add to a loss. :idea:

When price crosses above this trendline
OR I get a strong close above the 5ema.
I am going to buy with MAX margin.

More risk is more risk. Yes it is.

It appears my max risk in pips and $ amount on this AJ trade is the
ENTIRE account.

If you are forced to reduce your position size then all of your losses are multiplied; if you lose 100 pips
and drop your size from 3 units to 2 then your total loss is now 150 pips (at 2 units).

If you lose another 100 pips and reduce from 2 units to 1 unit then your total loss is now 500 pips; you lost 200 but you're down 500!

It is critical that you maintain & increase your account & position size; you should have a regression method in place but it should be catastrophic.

Be frugal with your account balance, value every tenth of a percent, but be generous with the influx
of space & willing to spend it all.

As a market wizard once said "If I valued every dollar (OPM) then I wouldn't make any money"

It is less risky to trade $6.000 seriously than it is to trade $1.000 haphazardly.

Start at minimum size, 0.02% of your account size, and accumulate only what is needed to bring the
target to within range of a daily candle.

There are a million people who are smarter than I am but few people who are more creative; let other people carry you where you are weak & carry others where they are weak.

As cool as it is to be a lone wolf, success is usually a team effort.

I start my accumulation with "one" unit not 3...1000 actual units on Oanda being equal to 1.
So,
if I get to a point where I can't trade @ 1 "unit" I'll add some $$.

So .02% is your value per pip? With a 40pips stop you risk
.8% of your account.

Yes it is less risky to trade seriously verses haphazardly with any size account. :D

" I don't want to survive, I want to live!"

If this is someone's view on trading its dumb. [-X
If you don't survive you can't live when it comes to
risk and trading. You can not live unless you survive.

Sounds like some marketing crap to me.

Yes, when I say "minimum size" I mean .02% of your account per pip.

No need to do any math for 21% targets, I added a picture of all the numbers in my last post to
the Ideas thread.
