steviet replied Jan 31, 2007Hi Chris, OK, you raise a couple of valid points here. I could do exactly as you say and calculate my lot size that way - to be honest it has just been easier the way I have done it but I do get your point. It may be too much for my brain to handle ...

steviet replied Jan 31, 2007Nope, To clarify, I use 2% of my account balance on each trade which would equate to a 2% loss if my initial s/l was 100 pips on a /USD pair or a little more on a USD/ pair. In reality my initial stop losses are under 100 pips so therefore the risk ...
