I do not have a rule about this. Most of the time I will not have more then 3 trades in at one time. I usually only have 1-2

if you don`t mind sir
Trade first Hienken Ashi signal only after the trend change on the xpma. If the Hienken Ashi is already in trend when the xpma changes direction do not trade. Wait for the first signal on Hienken Ashi after xpma trend change!

Explain this

If you don't mind I'd like to know your broker (or brokers if you use several) and the leverage your broker(s) gives to you.

P.S. I hope it is not too personal thing, it is not like asking you for a statement (what I would never do).

Risk only 3% max per trade.
This is all the risk you really need to make money in the forex. 3% risk will save you when you have a bad day. Emotions will kick in if you use more then 3% and cause you to do drastic things if you have a bad day.
I agree with you that for most of us losing more than 3% is painful and could cause some stupid actions.

But here's the thing I don't like. You trade 9 different pairs and you say sometimes you have 3 open trades at the same time. Some of those pairs are highly correlated, so if you have, for example, EURUSD, GBPUSD and AUDUSD trades and the price went against you, there is a pretty good chance that you're gonna lose all three trades which means losing not 3%, but 9%.

So, if you see that price goes against you, would you close manually for a smaller loss or you would hope for the best and wait until the stop loss get hit?

Don't worry guys. This will be explained in future trade examples. I'm away from my comp right now. Look at the examples on the first page closely.

Cubbybgood, Thanks a lot for sharing your system. I can pick decent trades on 4H and daily. Still looking for a smaller TF system to keep me busy (calming down my scratches for trading more lol). I'll definitely try this one.

Some typical guys can be very annoying, sometimes nerve breaking .. never mind. Most of us here really really appreciate the wisdom. Thank you again.

Cheers.

I'll explain what I understand so far. Lets say HA candles are red and then xpma turns red. Do not trade now. Wait for the candles to turn blue and then turn red again .. sell when the first red HA candle closes. The point of doing this, you enter the trade after a pullback which allows you to have pretty tight stop loss. Just like plain old pullback/retracement trading.
