Spieler,

you said also that for the time being, you consider only the SELL positions?

No BUY position at this time?

Do you think we are back to full reco?

What lot size/% of portfolio are you risking per trade? Are you letting the trade run against you to work the system or are you setting stops? I ask because I am curious about the cooresponding level of portfolio risk if a E/C only trade goes against you to a 6th or 7th level opening situation compared with having the hedge on. I understand you would either be able to take larger positions for the same risk or take less risk per position. The opportunity to externalize profits would also affect any scenario but I'd like to get a feel for how they...

I have another question.

Assuming the current price of

EURUSD 1.3143
USDCHF 1.1570

If I am planning to open EURUSD 1 lot, does the USDCHF has to be open 1.13 lot or 1.31 lot?

I saw on smjones script that it should open @ 1.31 but on the EA made by SwingMan was 1.13.

have answered many times to this question

The idea is to be market neutral in usd so you have to take into acount eur/usd parity

if eur/usd is 1,30 you have to take 1,30 lot usd/chf for 1 lot eur/usd and adjust in case eur/usd mooves a lot.

EUR/USD at 1.3212

sorry because I'm new to this ...

so if I take a buy position...

I need to
buy EUR/USD at 1.3212 with 1 lot
buy USD/CHF at 1.1512 with 1.3 lot

if the calculation is correct, then when to decide to BUY?
