Popular Trading Tips: Truths or Myths

Expectancy Management

Please allow my ignorance if I did it wrong. I tried to replicate your experiment and got the opposite result. I followed your settings that [RR=1, win 70%, bet 40% by kelly] VS [RR=4, win 28%, bet 10% by kelly]. image The system with RR=1, your ...

Does the martingale system really work?

yes, i think that's one major issue, too few samples to be significant. but that's a weekly trader and i didn't have larger data handy. in terms of trading, do you guys actually think even a limited martingale application like my 3-level only ...

Does the martingale system really work?

Nub, don't go yet. it is comforting to see old legs like you now and then. i'll post a backtest too tonight after work (NY time), just for fun, the backtests will be 5 yrs eurusd, with 3 level martingale MM...... i actually didn't believe martingale ...

Does the martingale system really work?

David, that's a great example, and 100% true to roulette betting. however, not so true for forex trading. MathExtreme made 2 assumptions that many martingale system might easily override. 1. the flat bet has no edge -- not so for many forex systems; ...

Does the martingale system really work?

about "martingale doesn't bring an edge", i used to believe it. but i found non-random edge using something with martingale nature. and this non-random edge (i may well likely be wrong) doesn't really exist when running without the martingale MM. i ...

i trade my own martingale idea, but have you really really played this game ??? you don't have to play with your friend, just yourself geez, you'll blow it up well likely within 100 rolls, try it, fool! are you serious? are you dumb or trying to ...

Automatic trading systems

lol, you just thought you know a few points to learn: 1. "straight line" equity curve is mainly due to the taking profit at a fixed amount, and at high successful rate, though martingale system tends to show that too. 2. martingale is not ...

EA for investors

it is so funny to see a so-called holy grail turned into a breakout/reverse system. year after year, there's always new ppl entering the same circle cycling.

The Holy Grail - Found

i hate to be frank. what you said about edge is great and insightful. however, this "1:2 risk/return is golden" is really amateurish, i mean the author. 20 random trades, ended up profitable, and that's sufficient to call 1:2 a golden RR ratio in FX ...

The Trading System That Never Works

will never? are you sure??? can i reverse a statistically profitable system into a loser? then i reverse this loser back into a winner, can't I? you really need to think before speak.

The Trading System That Never Works

the NO.1 essential mark of a successful system is its long-live and stability, which is not shown in this system's even 1st month equity curve. and it is very similar to many others short-live systems floating on this section. the logic of this ...
