My sl 7 ~ 9 slippage might take up-to 11, i used to make and loose lot (scaled daily +/- 200 pip , one day record profit +700 pips & loss 1500 pip ). when i am under water i am worse than wild dog, then start to is it worth for money now i am end up with +20 pip per day strategy, it's enough money, very less stress (my family like this new style much than me).

Edit : i try to revenge 1500 pip loss and with another 2x 1500 , -4000 ~ 4500 pips in week and that was my eye opener , end up taking one week holiday and one week trade trade pause....

i'm glad you're way past those horrible memories and doing well now. yea, i used to lose just about that with revenge trading. sleepless nights etc. i'm far far far from recovering my capital. it's probably is gonna take me years to get it back.

trading is a serious business and i'll still need a few more years to become a professional trader. sigh...

yes...trying to reduce my lot size to around 1/4...I have been lost during Christmas..
and wait until market settles....

its not that hard to pick a good entry but very hard to know where the exit should be...most of the time you need to wait patiently but thats what it matters...

it is indeed important but you see, risk reward at least in my opinion is always 1:1, "in the money" : "out of the money"

you see the only think that we have control over is Risk.

if we actually new the Reward side of it, then risk would be 0.

i can long the euro right now and say 1:x i will tp at 1.31 or 1.32
you might see that actually it is 0:x that i am risking more as the downside potential is greater.

Just because i perceive this trade to be 1:3, does not make it so.

tighter stop = less win %
loser stop= greater risk

increased...

very true. its a perceived risk to reward, hoping that reward is what i had planned

Estimation of move structures from intraday prospective ... first down - then up again ...

Firstly down (towards 1.2869) ... then up (towards 1.2971 - 1.3006) again ...

2012-01-05_05h42_ EURUSD _ min030 _ (200a) candlestickt + Pivots + TEMA

Extentions towards above 1.3045 cannot be ruled out ...

10% plus I add 2% for every 50 pips price moves against me up to 20% of my account.
My sl isn't huge..yours is too small..stop hunters will pick you off. GL you'll need it.
Remember, this is a high probability trade..so a total of 20% risk is no big deal.
entry - 1.29250 s/l 200 pips
