Very nice thread. Your trade selection method looks very good. High win% Looking at your past closed trades, it looks like your trading method is a little similar to mine (mean revision to some extent). In my back-testing prior to going live this past September, I had several trades that ran off 1,000 or more pip losses. One of my backtest trades showed a whopping 8,000 pip loss back in 2007 I believe. (That is why I implemented a somewhat loose stop loss that doesn't whipsaw me but tries to avoid disasters like that one) Have you back-tested your...

And what I mean by back testing, my back testing was very basic. I'm good at excel but can't program to save my life. I just basically set up my rules and pulled historical daily data and copied and pasted into my spreadsheet. I was able to get past data on several pairs all the way back to 2004. All of that just let me come up with my rules and to see how my worst year, month, week would have gone and how my best year, month, week would have gone. Thanks again for the thread. A lot of things to make me think

Good morning, your trades are sometimes running more than 1- 2 weeks, that means with regard to negative swaps Profit may be negative... I run my trades with Tickmill and there are huge negative swaps on some pairs. How do you handle this issue? Which broker do you use? Thank you for Reply, renko

{quote} It is only 12 days....not enough trades executed and closed. Will tell you after 2 months. The only issue I want to prevent is too much mkt exposure ...so probably on average I should have less trades open then original stack MM. And in case of disaster there is still SL there. Just very wide. In flash crashes and such events maybe it is not completly respected, but broker not closing trades far from SLses ( because they are wide) so account should be safe always no matter what happens.
