Cable Update (GBPUSD)

Hi ChiForex My last word on Martingale before the action starts. There is a method to control draw down to 5% on any grid system while profiting very nicely along the way. Just because a trader is not aware of strategy's that can deal with this ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

Hi HaLBot Yes, proper MM is key in running these strategy's. But traders like xtradex are totally unaware of how to run a strategy of grid EA's because they haven't been shown how the pro's do it. It would be a light bulb moment for them.

I think using the HA colour change on a Daily Candle setup is NOT allowing a MEME system enough room to be able to accumulate pips. You would have to use a very low ADR gap and risk a major account draw down in a big move. Its just too sensitive for ...
