{quote} Well, more than 6 minutes... 1.What is your average long term risk reward ratio, on big example, at least on 1000 trades? (e.g. In 3 years, in 720 trading days, on 14400 trades you have average risk 1 and average reward 1.5) 2.Also important, is that ratio the same or worse than the true real maximum potential risk you’re giving to your trades (to breathe)?
What does it matter? That's why I will not show any of my proper trades in these forums, as people dissect it to death
.The dude could of made 6,600,6000,60000,600000,6000000 in 6 mins it doesn't matter, what does matter is how he did it lol, or maybe he could give some insight into his trading, Be good

So unless you've been profitable for 3 years, and made 14,400 trades over that period and can prove it, then it doesn't count, got it!!

I run mine on a month by month basis, if me account is up on the month I'm profitable, if not, I'm not, why make it more complicated.

Who has 3years to test a system to find out if it's profitable or not first, really!!
Nothing to it, but to do it!!! Stick to the plan FOOL!!!!

I am watching the e/j on the daily I/b, it has actually dropped past it then retraced but my trigger wasn't set off, I did trade the actual inside bar aggressively for about 15 pips, but I want the major one to drop. maybe its waiting for NFP, be good

It matters because of serious things.
(this 6 minutes, 12, 22... got nothing to do with it, in this case particularly)
Risk, reward, trade frequency, edge (risk reward) robustness, accuracy, significance, probability, edge uniformity...
Why not to measure edge uniformity on: year, ½ year, month, week, day...or whatever you like basis, or on more of them?

I’m just interested in information what other people do and how they are satisfied, what can be done by others, ideas, how to be better... and so on.
Any of answers you can also share on p.m. or on my threads.

And thanks for your time.

Sorry bud, Of course you need information, I still seek information but I think that the guy was sort of showing off with his 600 or what ever it was. I just hit 30 pips on oil and wpould put that amount to shame lol but I am not shouting it all over the place, be good and ask questions as often as you like I will try and help

After spending years testing out all of the indicators, I have successfully settled on just one, a moving average cross over. I have found that it works best with a specific pair and a specific time frame. It should be noted that they work not in and of themselves but because large numbers of people use them.
