{quote} So basically I should use 0.03 max highest lot. But I think at least 0.05 should be the max lot size. Because my phase 1 requires me to make $480 to pass the phase.

It is a suggestion. You decide how much to risk.
If you are trying to get a funded account they often have rules about how much you can risk.

i always say theres shit lost in translation between everybody here on FF
not just in language but trading as well

people who use real broker accounts funded with tens of thousands of real hard earned money will always use smaller lot sizes as opposed to prop traders

like you said you deposited 300 and used big size to pass your challenge....the prop firms want you to go BIG with small accounts so you lose...MFF emails prove that theyre all cheats...i think it used to be ythey had a time limit of 30 days or something to pass before you got kicked out so they encouraged gambling with large sizes...now its unlimited time but people still do it

so when you get advice from people to go small its prolly a broker trader using his own money so you should ask other prop traders how they use size and all cause the two type of traders will never agree on stuff LOL

It is possible, in that example, it had another bear candle & you don't want to guess Monday, so you're willing to go over the weekend.
It could carry on for sure, personally, I never carry trades over a weekend.
That's a 3 candle set-up.

You are actually right. Taking note on your advice. I'll try to minimize my lot sizes until I develop my strategy. About strategy, yeah, after a session with Mr. Terry, I am successfully trading like Moty trades on M1 and M5 time frames. I never hit SL on M1 no mater what lot size is. So, I think I should avoid taking trades during news hours.

Whale, go to prior charts and see how it would work for you. The timing of the day is essential. There is a 6-7 patterns that repeat constantly. If you combine this with your method you will be OK.

NY session sucks, third day this week, but I refuse to move to Europe to trade the London session... {image}
Not only these few days, NY session often pissed me off, messed up my set up. I shouted and wrote my anger in trading journal , they're so mean, play PA like scam, intend to blow traders accounts so obviously . They often took my earnings from earlier sessions and even more. I'm seriously thinking about avoid place positions in this session.
Unless there's obvious trend, I'll wait for the News after about 10 minutes, observe what the price level and PA implies . sometimes can get a nice price in NY session. Today's PMI and last Non Farm are good examples, I both SHORT at the high price level.

Cgpips, that's why I trade with the target, and when the price cuts thru I biatch about leaving money on the table. The same sheet is with trading futures. You said this right, only when we catch the trend, trading is less stressful. We (day traders) don't need to be glued to the screen.
