Hedging/averaging trades without prediction
Hello Rob, have I got this (example) right: 1pm open buy, 1.15pm open sell, 1.30pm open buy, 1.45pm open sell, rinse and repeat.

I've two chart windows open with each pair (of pairs) showing over eachother so I can see directly how the USDMXN is behaving in realtion to the USDJPY pair and how the EURUSD and EURJPY are behaving as well. These 4 fall out of correlation quite regularly which plays nicely into the hedge, wait, collect philosophy. Today was a almost perfect example,...

. The plan is I'll trade each pair of pairs with the general trend and wait (and get paid swap) until the correlation changes in my favour, seems to be working so far.{quote} I everybody and thank's for the great Job that you are doing and share here. i Guess and it's not a secret that the Maine problem maybe of this strategy Is a black swan like swissy many ears ago or the Pound as well few ears ago(this phase of the market it's called kill grid) so i would like to focusing on how control the draw down during this facts. firs idea: instead open order every 15/30/60 minutes seeing that the volatility Is High we could open new order every new Daily o weeckly candle with the same method second idea we could freeze...
