And you honestly believe you are the very first person on earth to discover this simple fact? That literally thousands of other traders smart as and much smarter than you overlooked this simple holy grail? There can only be two endings to this story: #1: you are a superior mind who has it all figured out, and that superiority is proven by a 100% win rate with no losses. #2: you quit the thought process way too soon while patting yourself on the back for uncovering the holy grail right in front of everyone else' eyes. you have not researched backwards in time long enough to see what happens when CL futures are trending instead of rolling sideways as they have been for a long time now. so it's one or the other. you are a pure genius who figured out something that countless thousands of others could not do. or countless thousands of others learned the same lesson you someday will there is no third choice there
thanks, the max size i have ever taken for CL was 14 cars, which your account can also afford. it's not that risky when you have a vision for its range before you enter your first entry.
of course i'm not the first one to realize this. the key for this strategy is your first entry point and where and how you should average down, which is my edge of my current system. thanks anyway. btw, i have no attention to teach anything here or demonstrate anything that will work, just how my random trades go.
I'm happy that is working out for you, DV. My account is rather small, hence my conservative style. I'm up 51 ticks on 1 lot with no heat and my largest risk was $100.
With all due respect to everyone, please refer to the op's original do's and don't located on the first page. I hate to see a good thread polluted.
