Hey compulsive, Took a quick look at the link. Seems at first sight interesting stuff on the psychological side of trading. Will read it more...
I don't know if other brokers use the same lot sizes but at IBFX one lot in a mini account is $10.000,00. 0,01 lot means a $100,00 contract. On...
I forgot to mention: 1% a week is not that bad. I think it compounds a very reasonable return. I have another account managed by a professional...
Thank you for your serious advise. But I am trying to prove statistically in a small account that a certain trade plan may consistently win in the...
Thank you for your input. I like to see anything from all points of view.
I will not go bigger than a McDonald's employee unless that 1% survives the test of time. Statistics on live results in the only thing that...

To pyramide in both directions at the same time would deliver big profit in sideways markets. But when the market breaks out and begins to trend...
Suppose it were 75/25% with 2 events. The probability of 2 losses in a row would be 0.25 x 0.25 = 6.25%. Now suppose it were 1 million events....
Completely agree. I do my best to not bother much about intraday moves (time frames from M1 to H4), trying to stick with D1 to MN trends. Don't go...
Your math apllies perfectly to coin tosses and probably to constant step grid blind entries. No matter the grid settings. All you said is correct....
If market keeps going against me I will take that as a market reversal and will not double up anymore. I will take the loss while it is small and...
I don't know it at first hand. It is not very simple. Somebody probably knows.
Hey, this is not correct. If it were 7500 times, according to this formula the probability would be 187,50%. Nonsense. It is not so simple.
