I only trade euro dollar pair. I am currently at 124% on one of my accounts and 36% on another account started 2 months ago. I would be over 200% in my first account but I took a spanking a couple months ago. Both accounts I risk around 30-40% margin. Been a good year for me.

So how do you protect yourself when trading if you have such substantial risk? I have heard of others doing this and it seems a get-rich-quick scheme but sometimes your losses must be quite significant.
Thanks in advance for your response.

This is where money management comes in play, however, stupid mistakes like leaving money on the table without a stop loss over the weekend and having the euro jump 200 points (by the way is where I got spanked) are mistakes that we can make. But my rule of thumb and good money management skills I try to have my target profit prices 3 times as great as my stop losses. This reduces risks and lifts profits. Hard to do at times. Plus with EW theory I usually just trade 3 waves and C waves which are usually the longest. With all that said if you find what works for you, trust in it, don't deviate. You will not be right all the time but in the end profits be unto you. Good luck!

So this is what is meant by a 3:1 risk reward? And you use 30% of your account as risk? I should try it on the demo.
It won't cost me anything, right?

I would recommend real account...so your mind knows it is real money. If you want to change anything don't use 30% risk 2-5% until you get the hang of it. Do you use EW right know?

You are right MIB. I done believe in demo accounts. Micro accounts are better imho

No. I am more of a price action/Fibonacci-level trader. Every time someone mentions EW (and please take no offense...), there are so many possible interpretations of what is iii Wave of 5 and that, that it is very confusing and it seems to overly complicate things.
Now, I use Bollinger Bands and Fibos and have been a position trader for the past four years. But, as you can imagine, position traders have been getting the heads handed to them over the past year plus, so I am trying to learn shorter time-frames and new methods.
I am subscribed here now, so as I come to understand your ideas, it may prove to be very helpful to me.

I do appreciate your taking the time...

I too use BBands along with EW. You are right EW is confusing at times but it has rules to be followed. I have been trading 8 years now and EW by far is the best leading indicator that I have found. It works for me. Might not work for all but then again you still have to put in the time to learn. I am still learning. I have been studying three years. My first five years of trading I wasnt really as profitable, finding the trader inside me so to speak. But now I trade full time. If you are position trading then I say you are an investor, if you want to be a trader you will have to change your mindset because it is so much different. May the pips be with you!

Unfortunately you have to study all time frames to determine waves. I don't usually go down to 1 min but 5 min and above. If I can't figure what is going on at the 5 min level I go to the 15 min level and if the 15 min level is inconclusive then the 1 hour. I trade off the 15 and 5 but I get direction off of hourly and 4 hour. Confusing...but it is my way. Good Luck!

Euro dollar a headache... We reached 1,2765 and the downtrend could be ended, but but but, I would like a correction to (1.2860/90) and a last push down...

I agree with you LC. Short is the way to go. If we have missed it so be it however it would be wise to wait for a pullback. We might only get 9368 though. 9425 would be good
