Simple - flip a coin, place a pending trades above/below the next hourly bar. Tight MM. BE +5pips after 15 pip profit. 5 bad trades, 5 BE, 5 good trades with R:R 3:1. You are a winner in a long run.

Yes, one of my main techniquies.

It is time for Rookies to understand - all indicators are the same as flipping a coin. No one and no indicator knows what will happen 1 minute from now.
Flipping a coin is my top indicator and tight MM is my system.

Making trading simple is a challenge traders have to deal with and it is one reason why I have been developing my skill in structure-based price action trading. KP {quote}

When I trade I want to make sure that I am in control of as many factors as possible and not leave all to a gamble.

Do you know what market will do one second from now? Yes, 50/50, It will go Up or Down - that is all you know at this moment and for the rest of the market days.

You controlling the factors outside of MM is laughable.

I don't need to know. But I need to do whatever I can to be safe in the market; that is a key responsibility I have in the trading process - I need to increase the odds in my favour.

Law of probability does not say you have a 50% chance in your favour by throwing a coin or dice once; that probability is attainable when you throw the dice/coin 100 times.

As I said 50/50. "to be safe in the market" - Yes. As I stated, MM is all we can control and Yes, it is every trader responsibility.

Whenever I trade, my chance of success is more than 50% because I had done my homework before entering the market; and that is an important step to making trading simple.

yes, the odds are 50/50, but it matters how many positions you succeed in 50/50.
so in a series 50/50 may no he will definitely come together.

Throwing a dice or coin hoping for 50% success rate will tantamount to reckless behaviour rather than responsible behaviour; responsible behaviour involves understanding the market, heaping the odds in your favour, and planning on how to deal with the market.
