Agreed. I continue to trade this strategy, using the eur/chf directly, profitably. Probably the main lesson learned after the SNB madness that started in March was position sizing. Initially I was taking too large a position each time so when something like that happened my account was not prepared. However, that has been changed and no longer an issue in my opinion. I might be a little too conservative with the size of my positions at this point but that will evolve as I continue to trade.
hi mackus

what was your position size before and what is it now?

hi mackus

I was looking at position size similar to any other trading strategy, as in a certain percentage of total assets. However, since I don't use stops total loss was not a part of the equation, instead I calculated how much margin was required for each lot, then figured out how many lots I should buy to stay under my own position limits. This put me somewhere around 10:1 on position size versus account size, which was too much in my opinion. Now I'm trading at 2:1 position versus account size so for a 10k position I have to have 5k in the account and so on.

Hi Spieler and other hedge traders,
I'm back now and I'd like to give another try to this trading system.
Are there any updates on the original rules ?
Spieler are you still trading both eurusd and usdchf or eurchf only ?

Thx

I usually do. However, with the pair having been trading in such a tight range I've lowered the amount of divergence I look for before opening a position, as well as how much profit to wait for prior to exit. I decided it was worth a slight increase in risk to take a more positions, but to exit earlier as well.
The current situation, trading from 1.5080 to 1.5200, will not last forever so I am also very focused on not having too much exposure at any one time. The SNB could change their monetary policy and then the pair would probably drop 3-400 pips quickly. Also, the usd/chf is nearing par. This is not a good situation for the SNB so it will be interesting to see how, if at all, they react.
Trade well,
mackus

i am trading also directly eur/chf with 1:3 leverage.for entering i wait 0.25 or -0.25.i take usually 20pips profit,sometimes trail the stop with 15 pips.
i am profitable with the system but always scared to be catched by a 3-400 pips move...

Did any of you guys try this strategy on other pairs?

I have been trading this method on the pairs suggested by Spieler and I have been successful. No losses so far . But when the volatility is low, there isn't much going on.

Any feedback will be appreciated

Try

GBP/CHF -- EUR/GBP

AUD/CHF -- EUR/AUD

How are you trading with the eurchf holding at or under 1.5100? Does that change your premise? I'm long just above this level.

I am trading based on the rules posted by Spieler but I am doing limit orders. I also split my large order into small ones so that as soon as the price retraces, I start closing the positions at various predetermined levels.

low volatility these days gives us some free time using the system.

But we are in a range almost everywhere
End of year maybe.
