Proximus replied Sep 9, 2014If you had no losses so far, and presumably will have high winrate in the future, then why do you need to martingale? Just keep the risk constant, play safe and cash in the money

Proximus replied Sep 8, 2014You could get lucky and make a million $ with martingale, but thats has just about as much odds as winning the lottery, and a lottery ticket costs only 2 €, while this would cost him the entire account ... What's inside the box in that picture, an ...

Proximus replied Sep 8, 2014Sorry Paracelsus but martingale is just simply not viable.I`ve ran many simulations and on average with an account <=10.000$, you lose the entire account before the 1000th trade if you start with the smallest lot size 0.01 and double until the ...

Proximus replied Sep 8, 2014Yep, and i`m not a lawyer or anything, but i think in accordance with regulation agreements especially here in the EU the MiFid must enforce the best market conditions to the traders so probably these losses need to be compensated, because it was ...

Proximus replied Sep 8, 2014The SL is more like a risk control feature.Trading without stoploss is obviously a fallacy and one trader will pay very dearly if he doesnt use SL. image Imagine yourself being long on the EUR/CHF and not using a SL during that spike. Would that ...

Proximus replied Sep 7, 2014How does that information benefit you, without a knowledge of direction you dont really have an edge? What is the standard deviation of this "wave movement" so that you can put the STOPLOSS outside it? If the ratio is better than 20:1 doesnt that ...

Proximus replied Sep 7, 2014Those who believe that candlesticks have predicting power are very naive or just simple novices who dont know what they are. Its not the candlesticks which have the predicting power but the price itself, as it has autoregressive properties. But the ...
We were fools to believe candlesticks can predict

Proximus replied Sep 7, 2014That strategy doesnt have an edge, its just playing with RR ratio, and then hope for the best.But the individual outcomes of the trades are the same random as with any other method.That strategy is a gambling one.

Proximus replied Sep 7, 2014That must be a sniper precision method, i must look up his method because it sounds cool. Otherwise if you estimate the volatility, you can find out that even in short term it needs >100 pips. I`ve tested countless simulations between TP and SL and ...

Proximus replied Sep 7, 2014The edge is actually the expected value or expected profit on average /trade if >0 then its a profitable system, if its 0 then its breakeven, if under 0 then is BS. And because of spreads, you always start with a handicap of expected value of X- ...

Proximus replied Sep 7, 2014Its a long term strategy, i `m aware of the buy & hold & trailstop methods, but its more like investors thing than forex traders.In forex the market can just whipsaw, instead of going in a clear direction, but its definitely a winner strategy, on ...

Proximus replied Sep 6, 2014Definitely something very subjective and irresponsible.If you decide to trail stops then its probably wise to set the trailstop size in paralel to the short term volatility/variance and keep it that sized during the whole trade and definitely not ...

Proximus replied Sep 5, 2014Well , no offence meant, but i`ve tested it like 99999999 times the relation between TP & SL alone and with indicators, and havent found anything profitable, but to say that it would make 4000% its a unimaginable. The market changes structure way ...

Proximus replied Sep 5, 2014Well still how do you know when that swing ends, what is the threshold ? Consecutive green/red candles ? And if the next candle is different color than the other you end the scalp ? Well then you run into the problem of timeframes again, which is a ...

Proximus replied Sep 4, 2014Yes thats a very sound answer, after all reactionary trading is not wise, let the things calm down and enter when all things line up. Fundamentals should not be contradictory, i mean the data is the base here, but thanks to the stupid media, they ...

Proximus replied Sep 4, 2014Yes, exactly, thats an obvious cause, and a very visible one.So that particular trend was caused by an ECB decision, so until that decision holds, the trend will more likely than not hold too.This is the measurement of it. You can spice it with some ...
