Hi all. I don't know how any of your testing went today, but wow, what an eye opener for me. EURJPY really nailed the ol'demo test today. Several trades were stopped out and closed for -150 pips each. I am wondering if there might be a way to let the hedges run the distance? Or maybe i mised this thought/post and it's been discussed before?
What would happen if there were a trailing stop placed in the hedge version on both trades? I have no idea if i'm even thinking proper, but one might think that moving the hedge by XX pips each XX pip move against the original entry would help with some of the losses. . . then basicaly this system might include some sort of stop and reverse type intellegence. . . if all this is lame, just write it off as the rambles of a guy who spent the holiday looking at charts and currency books.

a PS after reading the below post. my v1c (one of the many tests running) is at -740 with 26 open trades and closed 25 trades (2 of them the EURJPY at -240 pips) with at a whopping +14 pips up.
