And you can trade with low leverage as well. I don't see the need for anything above 20:1, which is already very, very high. Regards - Xaron

Risk with Forex

In general, yes. But I use a wider stop of 30 pips. Check out page 156 & 206 for Golfer's rules. Regards - Xaron

Good morning, I think I've found a bug. Something strange had happened last night in the USD/JPY. Currently I trade 3 pairs, GBP/JPY, GBP/USD and USD/JPY. I've set TradesCriticQtty to 6, so no new trades had been opened for GBP/JPY and GBP/USD as I ...

Martingale Baggio Method

I agree. Personally I use 30-40 pips. I know, the risk/reward is bad but I've learned that better risk/reward possibilities are hard to reach in the shorter timeframes due to more noise. Regards - Xaron

Oh ok, thanks my fault. I refer to his post in dreamliner's thread where he talked about a 10 pips tp... In this case it should work. You have to think about where to exit. This could be the same as this thread at Oanda: url MutantWizard, is it ...

The grid hedge - the core version

Hmm... if you reload the grid on both sides, you will end up with some danglers on one side. These danglers will be higher losses than the other side where you take profit every 10 pips. The only way I can imagine this could work is if you don't ...

The grid hedge - the core version

Yes I use Swingman's indicator. But sometimes you get a dot, after that the yellow NL with an entry - you enter the position above the high/below the low and after that, the dot disappears (or becomes a small one) and the market turns against you. I ...

ATP (Advanced Trading Philosophy) - Positioning For Success

Thanks Willem. Because of that coppy market at EUR/USD I decided to exit very early in profit. My profit taking rules are not very fix. I use a fix stop around 30 pips and try to get 10 pips at least. Currently I think about to close only half of ...
