{quote} Recently my win lost ratio is 1 to 99 this is why I changed my status to "inverse trader" I take trades in the best places but exactly to the opposite direction
Think everyone has been and thought through that faze, but your right, however there comes a time when your judgement becomes right and your now, (not you personally) wrong, my problem was always and still is selling at the bottom, and buying at the top, but moreover holding when I had it wrong, very big on my part, now I'm not saying I'm any better but what I do on this board I do in the hope someone will point out the obvious, a little tongue and cheek way to look at it but sincerely wish you and everyone good fortune in trading, D

My idea was this:

That's why I sold, I still think it will go down after breaking or testing the previous high
(BUT really in this period of time I have zero confidence in myself, don't forget win-loss ratio: 1-99 )

PS: we had a smaller version before:

No one can take anything away from your analogy Aariapoor, it's well plotted with scenarios, I tend to use my indicators, taking Li's pivits into account too, I'm all too early sometimes but the scenarios I trade and if it goes my way great, if not cover or get out, many times the price fakes the break and losses happen, part of trading I suppose, take where we are today, 60+ and an expectation of a drop, the gods will have this more than covered (a thread on FF dedicated to the TMI will explain better) so preempting plays some part too. I'm hoping the red portions which look to be buying ops are to turn to green selling opps.
As I type and wished I had posted, a last ditched attempt at a flush, and it happens, I'm still short positioned, keeping the faith of a fall, D

99% I'm wrong If only I trade opposite of what I think I'll become the best trader in history

I think inherently all traders are wrong, they have to be, because they can never pick the exact top ot bottom, only those who controle the plrice are right, we open a position and maybe get the "timing" right, take my opening, with a little more money management and thought, I could have bought all the way up, averaged down and would be sitting in profit now, job done, so why not, well my aim was maximum exposure to somewhere near the top, positioned for a longer term, I'm not looking for the short term profit, I looking to catch what I can only describe as the fear factor fall, if that makes sense, up to now, I'm experiencing the wind that wouldn't blow out a candle, D

I've closed out with a loss, not sure this is the avalanche level, may well miss it but see this not playing ball, only my opinion and no advice intended, If I miss it so be it, but refuse to fund 2 losing position until better confirmation occurs,D

Some wise words! It's all in the money management some of the best traders only have a winning ratio of 40% and manage to earn big time!

I've downloaded the Blessing EA, has anyone used or experienced it, I have ran it since last night with some small but good results, my only problem now is the lot sizes for indices have changed to 0.1 so no longer a cent account to live test it, the tester has an excellent gentle slope up with small increment of profit, chsen weapon is the Dow, D
EDIT
Thought I would just put up my findings, MQ is not perfect bit DD is good in comparison, not something concrete I know, but there you have it, D

This is going to be my project soon, the idea is to fund the minimum $2000 and let this run, on the lot size, 0.01 the same results are with a $200 account, currently the lot size is 0.1
