Want to add som more info about the math behind that experiment.
According to margin requirements (leverage 1:200) I can trade round
about 2.4 lots on EURUSD, a little less on Cable (2.1 lots only) and 3.4 lots with USDJPY. All in all between 21 and 34 men troops.
Asuming to trade only that pair of the three kingdoms, that shows the easiest to read PA/Trend/momentum, I can survive the following scenario (based on EURUSD):

- 1 Scout max. -698 pips
- Move 10 pips against scout, now deploying
Rescue L1 (1Scout +3men Rescue) ~ -150pips - Move 25 pips against Scout + rescue L1, now deploying
Rescue L2 (1Scout +3men Rescue +8men Rescue) ~ -50 pips
From my point of view, that seems to be a reasonable sizing.
(Hope I have done any mistakes in my calculations ...)
I'm very curious, how this will turn out.
BTW: For this morning my bias is short. But using Rangebased MO on EU yet ...
