{quote} Hi Alex, no worries, theres 2 money management strategy which i was trying to point out, first one is the mm fti showed, a intra trade mm, but he is a dealer, what he mentioned was that he has a per day loss limit, this means that if some unforeseen mishap occurs, he can have someone refill the money back because the banks provide him with at risk capital to trade with, for retail traders, i doubt thats the case. So in order to emulate such a situation, we need to have a per day loss limit like fti's case as well, so maybe for per day, 1%...
... but small wave born higher wave ... and loss 1% per day is rigid mind ... no loss per day is great 😊

Yep, sometimes, when u turn from rescue mode into attack mode, and unlock attacks above level 4, but I think, sometimes, it depends on how much time you can allocate to managing a trade too, and might be forced to take a loss

rescue mod or attack mod = every time money management!!!no exist time for trading but exist zero tolerances for loss!!!if you mind setting for loss = thats your way ...

this already posted on thread previously. first we need walk in steps, once is mastered, we dance The New Footprints Now imagine you and the Lord Jesus are walking along the beach together. For much of the way the Lord's footprints go along steadily, consistently, rarely varying in the pace. But your prints are in a disorganized stream of zig zags, starts, stops, turnarounds, circles, departures, and returns. For much of the way it seems to go like this. But gradually, your footprints come in line with the Lord's, soon paralleling His consistently....

True, but the difference is the leverage used, a simple 1 1 2 attack or 1 scout 1 rescue 2 attack and I will have maxed out my leverage at 50x, fti is not using leverage at all, hence the implication of the volatility read is totally different, and the management mo for employing leverage needs to be altered and adjusted for use with leverage. That i would say is the primary difference my mm and the mm shown here, mine is adjusted for trading using leverage

lets just say, there are many ways to trade the markets, its all down to a preference as well and the situation you are in and your constraints, u could even employ the mo taught here together with a long straddle/strangle and dance the markets and always be long volatility, knowing that market crashes against you will make you even richer, you don't even have to consider 0% loss, all you are considering is how to capitalise the markets better, if you go back and read the post which fti mentioned about the delta hedging he does for the banks, he mentioned that it is impossible to lose money for the banks because they are so well hedged, for retail traders, if you have the time and capital to manage it, this approach is pretty powerful, which implies that using options and spot to dance the market can be very useful in managing exposure, across larger lengths of time, while being exposed to market crashes for large sums of profits, and because of that, you can employ leverage by adjusting your deltas and premium paid rather easily, but all these need capital and a larger account, which i do not have, until then, ill be sticking to my current mo.

theres also 2 more ways to rescue the book which, which is to flip the position and turn on wind (my preference), and also another way is to employ re-averaging with the triangular arbitrage relation of 2 currency with a same currency symbol in between and their resultant cross, and that pretty much means you have to simultaneously dance 3 markets at the same time, there are just many many ways to rescue exposure, the only thing that might help you decide what to use really is whats your preference and experience with the particular method and whats are the constraints you have to work within. and for some pairs, if there is a positive carry, you can even employ cash and carry's interest arbitrage to let the carry reduce your losses, although it will take time, or you can do it through winging your position into a butterfly and manage it through options.

all im saying is, there are many many ways to rescue a book's exposure, it all depends on how far you want to bring it, what resources are available for you to employ, and the experience and how comfortable are you with applying the method.
