Disliked{quote} Cheers Boss....will test it! But from my point of view, such strategys are just to be used when you have small amounts (1k-5k or even 10k if you dont care about it too much) and wanna go to the ball or hospital with it. I would never risk 200k-500k with this strategys.Ignored
Agreed.
Typically speaking, Margin Requirements become a lot more prohibitive after the $10k levels for Most Brokers and the failure of Martingales in these levels goes up Dramatically. When we see demo/test accounts still using 1000:1 and trading over $100k, these are the pipe dreams.
The tools that I have been working with and providing are for those that want to watch or partake in market possibilities with a limited risk by size of account. Even just looking at the Allin example account posted, would you risk 30% on a $2k account to double your money?
Risk to Reward is an individual concept. There are no absolutes or market perfection in these, we can only work with what we have built a personal tolerance to.
That being said, taking a couple of small accounts, limiting risk to size and allowing a constant growth can still provide a meager existence without a lot of effort.
Risk will always be associated with market and it's actually amusing to see others saying moronic statements about martingales surviving black swan type events. Shit happens, but I've seen a lot of the folk that got wiped out in January, do so by their own manual merits and some on single lots only.
Knowing what is possible, doesn't necessarily mean that it will continue to be probable.
And
Exceptional market times are just that. Exceptional.
