{quote} No I may exit way earlier because I may be wrong on PA but my emergency SL is 500 Basic concept is treating a trade not singular but a batch together making 1 unit.When I add to position means I am still trading it as 1 unit and that 1 unit could have 5 or 10 trades.
k thx alot

It actually a deeper subject.
How does one measure success.
I trade in units.
Monthly I unit includes 4 weekly unit
Weekly includes several batch trades average of 50trades
Daily 10-15 trades

You may lose 1 weekly unit but win 3 weekly ones making your monthly unit a +positive gain.
When you approach like this your individual trades becomes less important.Focus is on bigger picture.
This way you approach trading from looking down from airplane instead of top of coke battle
Single or multiple loses means little because approach is grouping in units.This way it takes the psychological difficulty most people have about taking a loss.I took 17 losses this month so far and close to 30% gain.Its not about single trade.
That's why TMS30 should be measured on 100+trades.

{quote} My DD is very reasonable in contrast of equity.Its all about money management and trade management.I reached my RR and stopped adding.Simple as that. I am glad its not your cup of tea because I am a coffee drinker! +380pips in 2days of trading {image}
Hi Davit,

very nice result with almost no draw down. Please can you tell this 380 pips represent what % of gain on your equity. ?

Thanks

Hi Davit,

As you do multiple entry, How do you calculate size of lot in such trades? May be this cab help us to understand this way of trading against single entry.

G'day to all,
I am sure we all have a good day everyday whether increase our equity curve or gaining more experience (if you learnt from it). We are lucky to have a numbers of super traders in this thread who we can learn from like Davit, Lastingwell, Griffinssoul, Omonisha, The Scorps, Pipsninja and also Phx62 and Emmanuel from Trading Made Simple thread. Do more study to build confidence if you are not there yet.
There are a few key points to remember:
- Only trade when TDI>32 for buy, TDI<68 for sell (another word, avoid entering a trade in overbought/oversold area) or you will suffer big draw down.
- Do not add more indicator than what presented in 1st post as it will confuse and distract you from price actions.
- when price is stepping up and TDI also making higher high and higher low and then TDI forming a bearish divergence, be aware that lots of times, 1st attempt will have retrace to create lower high. Vice vera for a buy senario (bullish divergence). This is what I called typical price actions.

Be patient to wait for a good set up.

It s easier to look at my GA chart for your visual.

Appreciation is the key to wealth and happiness
Just to inspire... (It s my trading from yesterday 20th Oct, I don't share my trading curve nor my results). Don't ask more as I won't say more. So getting at least 1000 greenies a week should be your cup of tea or like me, its my cup of coffee

Thanks Likica,
This helps alot. I used to just trade divergence when they appear and that got me in early quite often.
I will start practicing and short after PA has a lower high after a bearish divergence and long when PA has a higher low after bullish divergence.

size is how comfortable you are.If you cringe and worry price goes against you 20pips then your position is too big.
I am a big fan of small positions.This helps seeing the big picture.

100% agree

To me the game is not about making money but how not to lose money.Once you figure how not to lose money then profits take care of themselves.
I recommend every serious trader to read all Market Wizards books.These interviews are from real traders and not book writers.
Point you get from them all is risk management always.That's what pro's think.When LK says "wait for good opportunity" what she is really saying don't get in early and lose money again focus is about not losing money by applying sound principals contained on this system.

{quote} Hi Likica, U still use 50 -50 pips for SL and TP ? and how risk per trade for yours very good result? and how much maximum drawdown for your money management?
Yes, I usually have 50/50 for intial SL/PT but on sometimes I left my trades overnight I put SL 15pips above/below last swing high/low. I exit my trade when market changes or adjust SL/ PT as trades in progress if I monitor my trade. My max DD is usually 5% of total open trades (too high for some of you and I don't recommend new traders to risk that much).
Focus on 1 or 2 pairs is good enough...Sometimes, no trade is better if your setup does not show up or the set up does not meet your rules.
