QuoteDislikedMer,
So am I right in saying that if 3 one lot trades were put on for the regular trades (option 3) then the counter trend trade lotsizes would be 12 / 6 / 3 lots??
Just like this to be clarified
It could be. You can make the lot sizes whatever you want as long as you keep the 4-2-1 ratio. You could use 8-4-2 or 7-3.5-1.75, etc..., as long as the ratio is correct. All I want you to make sure to do is to try and increase the lots to proportionate offset as much of the loss from the Regular trade as possible within the limits of your trading account size.
