Risk Management — As far as I have followed this strategy since last week, most of the time, the number of possible combinations vary between 10-15. If someone trades 0.1 lot per pair, that makes 1-1.5 standard lots and considering the current ...

If your capital is 350 and your profit is 239, that means there is something wrong with your risk management. Your trade size is probably too risky (too big) relative your initial capital. So I agree with Ronald that this system may be performing ...

I just want to make clear that I wasn't either negative or positive on my posts. I said it was just 10 days of forward testing and its performance cannot be judged. I said it was a special time of the year. I said should someone take all the trades ...

I indicated that those 10 days may not be indicative for the future, therefore we cannot judge if this system is profitable or not (without discretion). So, we need longer forward test period and what I do is just announcing the forward test ...

These numbers show forward test of your system without discretion (if you take all trades mechanically) between Dec 21st and Dec 31st, and it shows the net result if you include spreads. Since you said 30 pips profit target (except GBPJPY) I haven't ...

Hi Harold, 60 pips loss was from two trades on EURCAD, each with 30 pips stop. Is there a reason why you didn't take those trades and GBPUSD?

- Blackeagle replied Dec 21, 2007
We had 2 consecutive losses on EURCAD at 10:00 GMT and 12:00 GMT short trades, both stopped at -30 pips. So if you are trading all 6 currencies, so far today's results are: GBPUSD : +30 GBPCHF : +30 CADJPY : +30 EURCAD : -60 Total : +30

How did you manage to get +40 on eur/jpy? The trade direction should be SHORT and EURJPY is going north since 06:00 GMT Close and you shouldn't get any short signal.
