{quote} Knock yourself out mate. I still have the robot around somewhere but i wouldnt touch it with a barge pole. after the boom one of the team spent about a year trying to get paramenters that would have been profitable. he failed
I'll post the follow up to that trade idea and leave it at that, don't want to intrude too much on your thread.

Thanks for the book and the great ideas

{quote} Biggest mistake was way over confident - we just thought it couldnt lose and would always come back. we over leveraged to the hilt. I wouldnt trade like that again - i don't like any losing trades at all anymore
It's statistically impossible to win always in anything but high success rate can happen and it's probably your case

That idea is great only when is trending while on ranging markets can be a disaster.
I developed something similar where range it's still a problem.

{quote} It's a good question really although not applicable to grail- we did test other pairs but cable was the best for a) our timeframe in the uk and b) cos we are british lol Thing is though you know what killed any of my trading in my years inbetween? - trading multiple pairs. it's a mistake because all pairs are correlated so when you lose you lose on almost everything. the reason we look at other pairs is because we THINK we are spreading the risk or we THINK we will make more money. Truth is it increases your risk and if you want to make...
Thank you for your reply I have decided to re-evaluate what I have been doing unsuccefully for years. I have been trying to build a system for all tf's and pairs. I'll now concentrate on one or two instruments probably gold and something else where trends are more regular.
Also the tag line is what I used to tell my salesmen I when qualifying sales opps. You never know what you don't know, so ask open questions.
I see you may be departing, thank you for visiting and good health and wealth in the future.

I'll still be around a bit


Gold is wise, i'm heavy in gold, more so that forex. six figures. the physical stuff tho.
gold is worth something, if the shit really hits the fan you still have gold - wheras if you save currency you have a handful of paper. think about that.

If you can't answer that you just another attention-seeking social trader that living in his bubble and fantasy. At this point, FF turned into a place where all delusional people come, like you have a hot poo and all the flies come to it.

Why should anyone answer anybody else's questions. They may think they have the right to ask but everyone has the right not to answer.

Nothing about getting an answer

Just finished reading through the ebook. The one thing I get from it is "drawdown". It seems that regardless of where the price was going the drawdown was just an accepted cost of trading. Although it was mentioned that "Grail" was a trend following system I didn't see any recognition or trading stopped when the trend reversed or wasn't there. I have had a 2nd look but not seen anything. I'm always to quick with my stops, I hate losing. I have learnt quite a lot from this so thank you again.
