Yeah I felt that... I'm a little over-leveraged but not dramatically so... let's see! Edit: Looks like a retest of 1.1700 shaping up.

Solid analysis. I don't usually review ahead of time so as to not bias my own analysis but I'm finished with mine and enjoy everyone's perspective very much. Should be another great week. Treading lightly for my part tonight/tomorrow (US/EST/GMT-4) ...

Agree! Buffet rule and trading. It can be done 'without losing money' over the long term, that is the only point I was making... regarding long term investment, one hedge fund manager shared a very similar sentiment as you did some years ago in a ...

TLDR: Still cannot or will not answer I'm left wondering, who hurt you? I don't need luck, and will add that I never disparaged your system nor ranted, (having used Martingale and anti-Martingale in the past and being genuinely curious ...

Have a system that you've proven works in real time (not just back-tested), watch the economic calendar, less so the actual news, avoid news trades if you are prone to anxiety, once you have a proven system always size correctly to further manage ...

Cant give enough thumbs up. My experience is in line with that statement, it takes a significant amount of time. "Stop losing money" is like the Buffet rule! Well said.

My query was central to using the Martingale with any success and was made in good faith and politely, as obviously you do use some form of risk management based on the account screenshot/equity curve that you posted, otherwise you'd have it drawn ...

I understand, thank you. You'd therefore double a losing position size using a Martingale system, with a risk of catastrophic draw downs in a counter-trend set of positions, as I understand it. In a trending market you could only leverage so much, ...

Is that a true Martingale? Can't trade using Martingale (it goes by a few different names) w some prop firms. Why is that so? Edit: It seems like this thread is approaching its natural end state (a 'Godwin's law-type scenario)... ...

I'd not use an EA exclusively, instead I shoot for a fixed target every day (1/4-1/2% is ample) via manual trades and the EA/Bot when used is independently risk-managed ie never more than a set, small amount of available margin used to bolster ...

Frustration is understandable. Keep in mind that according to some estimates around 90% of small businesses fail. I have experienced that ratio but am still self-employed due to the favorable risk/reward ratio. Your comments on Darwin are pretty ...

Good start on Asian open (not my usual trading hours). Looks like we blew through 1.1717 support mentioned by Ata-Turkoglu earlier; I'm treading lightly on the overnight/Asian session. Should be a decent morning tomorrow, albeit with reduced volume ...

I like that! A hard lesson for me to learn was to use external input and news for postmortem analysis only. Being susceptible to confirmation bias when it comes to trading, especially in the beginning, I started to limit my news and forum intake to ...

I hope you keep going, there are so many good resources out there! Keeping it small and/or simulated is a great way to do it to learn. I learned part time so it took me several years, but it can be done. I typically trade this pair. Re todays ...
