Hey friend, I'll give you my opinion, but I'm not an educated person or an expert in anything. What helps me is watching old KOF videos several times, reading and rereading how the different members of this forum work, learning about price structure, basic candlestick patterns, and most importantly, practicing and practicing nonstop, every spare moment. The real test comes when the price jumps by 200 pips; that's when you know if you're ready or if you need to start over. Cheers, friend, keep it up!

is this DD in line with your normal trading or out of the range and too high?

For those of you who are just starting with this system, even if you see many pips collected, also consider that these days it is very easy to trade. You can see that the impulses are very small, at most 42 pips like this last one... you should see how it handles in large movements (+200 pips).

KoF strategies use only one timeframe, one lot size, standard indicators and only one pair per trade - using multiple timeframes, different lot sizes, custom indicators and trading multiple pairs simultaneously then becomes a completely different strategy, with a completely different money management model, and is no longer a KoF strategy

every minute matters!

exactly, even though further development is possible, which you have indeed accomplished.

after a few weeks of trading this style i managed to trade two pairs at the same time.

what i am not looking at all is the volume, it makes no sense to me.

my development was necessitated by a very low leverage and high margin requirements, but i am still able to stick to the core principles, i would only recommend trading two pairs for advanced level, you seem to handle it very well!

i just use volume for what it is, if a number of bars start spiking above ema20, then i consider whatever move is taking place to be strong, and that's it...
