I wish i can do like you as well. As my analysis on my own trade. I can get very high winning rate. But once i lose, it can take away all my profit gains . Wish you luck man. I shall aim for everyday 10pips as well. Once 10pips. Close deal and sleep. Goodnight and sleep tight

how ur risk :reward strategy??.. in other word stop loss : target profit

ppl always use 1:1... got ppl use 1:2 strategy.. I think that always the main problem

i think first we must learn to cut loses... consistently reduce loss... then after that move to start profit... sweat.gif

Trying to maintain the risk at 1:1. But problem is sometrade. How am i going to cut off if i knew it is a down trend for sure. It juz abit of resistance by now? Sometime really get confused.. muz depend what situation, wish all of us get a better next wek

Why? Here no matter of kacau la. We juz together share idea. If you say kacau, then you can say me spamming lor. You see i spam this whole thread with my own graph analysis. I lagi kacau la.

Come back come back. We shall sit together and have fun together. Ya, i thinking of setting money management for myself also. Whereby risk 3% of my account for every trade. Mean if my account got USD 200. 3% mean USD 6. So if i play 0.01unit. So everytrade, my SL shall be the maximum 60pips. I will start doing this in coming week.No matter what happen, SL 60pips. No changing SL manual during trade session.

well .. the thing is .. almost 90%, i dont know what the hell u guys talk about and i never contribute in any way .. only spamming ma .. haha .. tu kacau la tu . u contribute . lain cerita ..

and what i mean by dont want to kacau u pro anymore means i only read after this .. no post .. coz i dunno what to post . this also consider a spam edi what .. tongue.gif

Lot size per trade is (capital x 3%) devided by (SL x 10) ?

(USD 200 x 3%) devided by (60 x 10) = 0.01

why need to SL need to be multiply with 10 ?
*
This is for my case, I not sure for other. I have USD 200 as capital. So every trade i risk 3% of my capital which is USD 6.

I trade 0.01 unit. Whereby 1 pips movement is equal to USD 0.10. So i can manage to take risk of 60pips. Mean 60pips * 0.10 = USD 6.

If i trade 0.02 unit. So, 1 pips movement is equal to USD 0.20. So i only can take risk of 30pips. Mean 30pips * 0.20 = USD 6.

Sometime, risk should be differ by the unit that you trade and the pairs. Cause if you trade GJ in a longer TF period. 30pips of SL is super easy to achieve and is super danger.

I have one trade in GJ, whreby it goes -110pips to me. But finally it ends with +140 pips when i closed the trade. So, conclusion. money management is good and safe. But sometime we will very sad when it touch our SL and goes into profit area again. I alway been in that situation and blame myself. Y i set SL? Answer : bcoz i wan safe and secure.

my capital is usd1000 ... if i trade on 5% risk and on 0.1lot .. my SL is 50 ? correct ?
*
Ya, if USD 1000. 5% is USD 50.
If you trade 0.1 lot. Movement 1 pips in market = USD 1. So SL = 50pips.

If you calculate further. You are not allowed to make a continuous of 20losses trade wif SL 50pips.
Bcoz 20losses trade wif SL 50pips, 20 * 50pips = 1000pips = USD 1000.

Sometime, Forex make me scare when i did the calculation.

Same advice from me. We are trying to trade succesfully not trade profitably if we are new. I'm a newbie in FOREX. That why you alway see my trade is 0.01 or 0.02 only.
My principle = if i manage to trade USD 200 successfully and increase it to USD 2000. It also equivalent that i am ready for trade a bigger lots size.

My friend alway scolding me for this.

I alway blame myself, why i don't get into the trade earlier. Or why i exit so fast? Why i don't exit on the peak of the price?

My friend told me: If you able to predict that is the peak, then you already is millionaire by now. We are trader, is get profit. But imposible every trade we able to exit at the peak of the price. And we also unable to maximize a profit from every trade. Reason: If a price increase from 110.00 to 115.00...

Note : (From a friend of mine)

Moz probably you will only enter an nearby 111.00 area (already kurang 100pips) and exit on 114.00(kurang lagi 100 pips). Why enter so late? Cause you waiting for confirmation. Why you exit so fast? Cause that is your TP and imposible you can predict it can go until 115.00. The most you can do is set SL to 114.00 and put trailing Stop of 15pips. It might helps you.

Edit :
@corez
I very agree with you. You are doing great with that approach. Even myself is jealouscy as well. Bcoz sometime i cant even get 10pips per day. Sad for me.

You trade with what account first? What is the smallest lot size from your broker?
How much of risk you wish to take? Usually people taking 3% to 5%. Bcoz i saw your trading method from your post (your trading result).
I worrying is it you suitable for this. Cause this method is suitable for some case but not for all.

I think this one mayb not suit for jebonen one. Cause jebonen trading method is not suit by this, i think. (think only, jebonen don't scold me)

Edit: Faz Faz reply me lor. I will slep by the time 12. I need work tomoro morning lor. Haha. I waiting here until 12. Special for you only.

Further confirmation needed : Smallest lot size 0.1 --> 1 pips movement is equal to how much (1buck or 0.10 cent)? Cause there is different if you using mini account and micro account.

I cant really comment anything on these. Since i not very understand for those leverage. The only thing i know is higher leverage, is mean enable you to trade more with lesser margin. I currently using 1:100. which is default by my broker. I lazy to change it. since i stil have enough margin for myself, bcoz i only trade 0.01 unit. Juz a small small case. Nothing much to worry for margin in my case

@normeck
I still waiting you.

Got your info.

1 pips = USD 0.01. This is micro account.

For this case.

Capital = USD 100
Risk = 3% on capital

100 * 0.03 = USD 3 (risk in monetary value, this is the risk you can in every trade)

If the risk is USD 3. That mean you could set your SL at 300pips

Whreby, 300 pips * USD 0.01 = USD 3

Note : This is only applicable when you trade in 0.10 lots.

Trade 0.20 lots --> SL 150 pips
Trade 0.50 lots --> SL 60 pips

So, you shall have a look on it. Depends on how you decide it. You can alway change your risk even to lower as 1% as well.

Hereby i attack an excel file. Whereby it can calculate for you. I wish to make an program for it, but i cant do it by myself bcoz i only learn the basic programing C++ language before.

Here is the link. I was unable to post a .zip file or excel file over here, so i have no choice but to post over there. Sorry guys
