Ill explain a bit:

... only on one cross...biggest potential drawdown (high or low) was 2,1% per position. Average potential drawdown was 0,65% on 25 trades, with only 3 trades moving over 2% potential drawdown. Only 1 out of 25 trades resulted in negative sphere with 0,2%. Others all victorious. This is per position value.

P

well..yes, agree with you, keep it small but be always in the game to have a chance for gains to add up....BUT....

you need a quite an account for that...otherwhile, if you play 10 pairs and you under water with 5-7 pairs (risk <2% per pair) it's still 10-15% DD...adn from one point you will not sleep so confy..

that's wahy i say, play small, often, and with pairs you can control (corrolate) in your mind...and you will be just fine!

this is me

______________________
but is really strange...I just wait for some orders to be taken from the market and then I start to manage...meanwhile I dont do shjiiit. That is why I started to think about multiple crosses. Just to get me an edge on practising.

Plus I do a lot of simulating lately. It really gets your mind running about FX. Everything is foooking possible. No move is final so volatility is pretty much a god blessed manipulative oppurtunity!! That is why I try to plan "worst case" scenarious and try to handle them. Its all about managing the risk.

yes, agreed on the second part. Of course if market loves USD then the whole board is directed only in one way. That is why It is pretty much fundamental that the max % drawdown is in place, plus the gut feeling about closing the foooker in minus and get on with it. I do that shjit also...only to clear the board.

About the account size. I could not agree more. By that kind of % gain Im playing it last 3 months I could be risking more. But easily this could be a trap. That is why Im doing it really slowly. As said in some previous post! I need to get some negative action-some big DD to get me on the ground. Beating myself everyday not to expand the acc.. But that is the way it should be I guess. Over 100% Ill try to add up also on the account.

trading simulator go into folder experts
other four go into folder scripts...and you trade via STRATEGY TESTER.

You trade via scripts.

The only disadvantage is that you can open only one trade..not adding up and averaging...

that is why I developed excell where you can average them out and still get the result...a bit of manual work, but still does the trick.

when you loose a battle you learn...when you loose a war you never go back

damn, tell about it..I see you scalp big time and you do it nice. I never really liked scalping cus of taking SLs. Dont like SLs. That is my worst thing. Pride and greed. I like gintonic also.

CUBALIBRE for me

scalping is the most rewarding style on short term!

i have a scalp technique that i learned over the years...it's not holygraal but put you in positive at the end of day.
