My public version of my doc on Institutional Style Trade Management for Retail Traders. I hope I have got all the numbers right, but the main thing is the concepts. :- file

It isn't possible to trade the News and the Crude Oil Inventories the way I do now, using the admittedly high levels of risk (approx 5%) that I currently use when your account grows too large - there isn't the Liquidity that I would need in those ...
