{quote} Great can you show us a live example next week ...cheers
No, not this week. I am demoing this strategy on forex atm. I don't like to actually demo because it is not real, so I trade very small lots on live account. But as Bird mentioned, 1 contract is the minimum on futures, which I believe is 12,500 for the micro EURO, so much larger than my current 2 micro lots I am using to demo.

But if things keep going as they are (very well ) then I will try this on micro euro futures and will post the results here.

BTW I am using your hedging / averaging strategy with non random entries, just a naked chart but opening up exposure to one side when I feel we are going up or down and when I feel we are ranging I keep fully hedged most of the time but if tp is hit near the top or bottom of the range I wait to get a better price on the closed direction if I can. One thing is very different to how I normally trade and that is taking a mindset that most of the time the market goes "up a bit, down a bit".

Thanks for the thread, it has opened up a new way of thinking about the markets and how to manage positions for me
