i have wiped out like this in the past. why?...no stop loss. use stop loss and its fool proof as this method has high winning percentage.
it can still happen that by the time your sl is triggered, you're now in the red w/ much larger positions than ever, which wipe out all the work you just did.

don't get me wrong, the technique is amazing and works in certain markets. i almost doubled my account value in 8 weeks by doing exactly this. but it only lasts so long (hence the "almost" in my last sentence lol.)

the key is to use this method combined with others in your arsenal. then the only problem is choosing which weapon to use at which time, which is dictated by the type of market we're in for the day (the hardest thing to know.)

if that happens it means your pip sizes are way too big in the first place for your account. no one loss should amount for a huge account drawdown..no matter what the account value is. chicky said he would short all the way up to 1.3850....with stop loss on all trades at 1.3900 for a maximum drawdown of 2%. Now i dont do it like that but my stop loss is similar...(a little bit more risky) so even if i have 10 losing trades in a row...im still not hurting.

well im short again off 1.2708...seems like we have a double top/bottom in place for now on all major pairs. Stop loss is ideal too...a decent amount above yesterdays high.

if this hourly candle closes lower then the previous one...i think this may be the high for now. anyways..lets let pa do the talking

Opportunity explored. Target achieved. Target locked on 50% position to ride for the day. Going to get some sleep.
