Sure...great plan! New way of asking: a loss of 39 pips would cost you what percent?

Without an edge MM is useless!

Like, I said I am not trading NU because of the strong USD. Maybe some new lows as you said. But, for others pairs it is fire on for now

Yeah I sold GBP NZD a bit early then at the highs and it came down like 700-800 pips in a day it was absurd.... I'm waiting a little to go long GBP/AUD GBP/NZD , it's tempting for a move, but seems like I should be more patient..

Can only answer for myself. THIS much ALWAYS equals a percentage. 39 pips == 2%. 39 pips == 5% KNOW YOUR LOSS before you place the trade!

good god they have no idea about money management....

i can easily tell you my risk %

say i enter a trade at 1.05, to short EURUSD at now 3 Lots per trade because my account is at 75k, (rule is 2 lot for every 50k)...
3 lots =30 USD per pip, 1.0550 = 50 pip loss, 30*50=1500 USD
1500USD/75000USD = 2% drawdown.

my max recorded drawdown is 6%, ie 150 pips in this circumstance...

Took me ages to learn....

but still doing my thing.
but yea looked more into afhacker's system....
his system is in a trade 95% of the time....
thats a good enough redflag for me that hes overtrading or overly attached to trades that profitable trades could turn into a loss because hes holding and holding and holding...

not exactly my style but its working out for him so far...

PS. F**k i need caffeine....

Time no matter! If you can't answer within seconds what a 39 pip SL is going to cost you... ... ...ain't NO system at all. Go to Vegas/Monte Carlo...at least a few drinks for free before the gambling runs out. How long before it runs out? THIS long! Hahahahahahaha...I've budgeted THIS much. Oh.... ... ... have you really? :-P

Everyone has his own system my one is based on SL trailing and I'm not predicting the market with TPs.
I don't have any fixed number of pips or percent for my SLs, my SLs are based on market condition and If I can't afford to lose the required amount of SL I'm not putting my self on that trade.

understood, so your profit relies on how well the market keeps trending and trending and trending so your trailing stop loss catches up..... but that would mean at some point you might miss out some profit....
and that you would always miss out a few pips, causing your system's exit accuracy to be pretty low....

what i learned in forex is that you can enter the market at any time you want. the biggest matter is how well you exit, always have a plan of exit.
your seem to have a plan of exit, but it sure isnt the most accurate one.
i just hope for your sake accuracy is not relied by your system to generate profits.
