Quoting Mr TrendDislikedYou bet.It depends on the strategy, but as a general rule I risk 3% per trade.I have in the past. I've done a 75% drawdown. Currently? Heck no. I'd shoot myself.Depends if it's in my trading plan... if the system suffers that loss, but overall is successful, then I guess I do nothing and continue following my plan, because I trust my system.3%
You mean 1:1 or 1:2? 1:1 would need to be 51% or higher success rate.Yes. I have a spreadsheet that I plug my capital and risk amount in, and it automagically tells me how many units to risk. It's dandy. Nothing. Why be emotional?Nothing. Why be emotional?I want to be a pro working for myself in two years. I believe it will happen because I will succeed no matter what. I don't trade with "money I can afford to lose." Whoever invented that saying should be taken out back and beaten like a punk. So yes, I'm a tad serious... If you had a business, wouldn't you be?
Here, let me break it down for ya's:
I hear the newbies in the forums chatter boxing
Mr. Trend and DS got all the traders watching
I hear them jam japing bumping guns chasing crones
We ain't concerned with them bums we accumulating funds
They think we don't take our funds oh so serious
Until they see our accounts grow so furious.
See me in the new Benz cuz I'm oh so ballin'
Or a old school slab with the few wheels fallin'
We got em talkin' but really they ain't saying too much
Just speculating that money management is just a crutch.
Ignored
I'm still working on the beat, but .... yeah.....mmmmm ..... send me a demo....... ya know....... like .....we don't want a hot mess.....but yeah.... we'll give you a call.....mmmmm ......How about this little bit of flavor??
