DislikedOn methods like this, constant lot sizes are used, 0.01, 0.1, 1 etc dependent on the account balance and the stop losses differ from entry to entry, so it is only possible to talk of average pips risked and average pips won, absolute R is not viable only average R. For instance in the above work sheet 114.50 is risked on average to gain 263.78 on average; it can be average pips or average dollars, all the same due to constant lot sizing.Ignored

Disliked{quote} Not going to get in to an argument about this, but you are wrong. 114.50 is NOT the average risk. It is the average LOSS. Each one of those deals might have had 300 pip risk for all we know. Thanks for the response Mike. I'm not being awkward and I'm glad you took my comments in the spirit they were intended. I.E. in the spirit of sharing and helping. I always piss people off on FF when I go on about this, but I am right. I just wish people would take it on board - it is VERY important, and for fear of de-railing Jim's thread, I won't mention...Ignored

Disliked{quote} I have yet to decide the way to trade the system. Jim said we can make it as mechanical or as discretional as we like, and it looks like it is an important choice to make with respect to potential results. Being too aggressive at my first attempt on GJ produced only BE+3, whereas sticking to the mechanical rules would have caught me in the mid week's chop with unnecessary reversals. Looking back at this week's PA (GJ), the best result would be when not moving the SAR at all. That's hindsight, of course. Food for thought too. {image}Ignored
