Maybe its best not to lose more than the win of the last day on a single day ?

Wollte sagen, verlier nicht mehr an einem Tag als du am Tag zuvor gewonnen hast.

If you shouldn´t lose more than you´ve won the day before, then that Journal would be over after one losing day, as there won´t be a way of losing not more than you´ve won the day before as there was no gain

Wenn Du an einem Tag nicht mehr verlieren darfst, als Du am Tag zuvor gewonnen hast, ist das Projekt nach einem Verlusttag zu Ende, da man nicht weiß, wieviel man am Folgetag verlieren darf, da es ja keinen Gewinn gab

Actually it wouldn't work to just stop trading if the win of the last day has been lost. Maybe right after that comes the big winner? I don't know. And I don't care about that because my money management will kick in and get me out of that hole.

Hey xaron, good luck in your quest, i will be watching on with great anticipation, well at first, maybe by the time ten years is up it wont be anticipation so much as relief lol,
just on your inside bar trading, we all should realise that and inside bar is in effect consolidation or a compression of price compared to the previous bar right? with that being correct do you have any rules as to the size of your inside bars? whether it be compared to the previous bar size or an average bar size???
cheers

Thanks!

No, I don't have any special rules regarding the size. I just compute the position size depended from the size of the candle. That's all.

Hope you do not panic too soon and stick to your system.

On Live accounts if one looses in the beginning it's quire hard to do that.

All the best for tomorrow.

Thanks MJ! Don't worry, I'll stick to my plan. Might reduce positions sizes if the DD exceeds 20%.

Ouch..

I have been using a 5Minute TC during the European/US sessions and find it quite profitable.. using 1 & 2 full lots (10-20$ pip) over 150-200pips daily, catching swings on both ends. It's not odd to find the one 5 minute bar with over 30+ pips.. just have to be patient for the breakout.

Lots of swings, back & forth - I'd find it hard to settle with a 1HR chart... It can be going one way, then go completly opposite real fast..too volatile to take the chance, esp during peak hours ???

Cheers
