Why is it that, my lot placements get smaller and smaller as I get more profitable per trade?

I remember I used to risk as much as 25% per trade... Now, I risk no more than 5%.

Anti-Martingale?

Or just being "chicken"?

shit has change. im loading up, buy gbp/usd at 8:29.50am
What are you looking at to make that call though? I know you turned out to be right. I dont think that there is any system that can tell you before the news which way to trade. Unless you are looking at price action pointing to some traders with early knowledge of the news that were selling USD before the news came out.

enjoy your profit boys im out of the market. im still sitting pretty. about my system it's mainly a news trading system geard toward 8:30am NEWS REALEASE. 98% sucess rate. thats why i load up on my trades at that time. so if im doing 10 standard lots and make a big profit any news that comes out after 8:30am i downgrade my lot size to preserve my profit just and case i do take a lost.

one thing i found out about my motto is once your sitting on a big profit its hard not to take the money and run. so i guess emotion comes it to play a littile bit.

I dont quite understand this market. CPI and TIC data are all lower than concensus, should be dollar -, but GBP/USD drop 50 pips once the poor TIC data announced.

yeah moe, we have had many on these boards who claim to predict the direction of report, but you have actually been proving it with live calls! amazing!

btw, be careful with this strategy. you have already given me enough info to design a similar system! any good system developer can pick up on little clues and then do their own testing to copy your system. and i am one of the poeople in the camp of no sharing, i think you can ruin your stategy like that. it happened to me a few years ago and i learned my lesson bigtime!

i know everyone is gunna say "SHUT UP MERLIN!" but i gotta look out for moe here!
Relax and be happy.
