Dear Traders All traditional trading strategies are primarily aiming at making profits, right? What if we create unconventional trading strategies that is primarily aiming at avoiding loss? If such a strategy is made possible then the only possibility is to make profits from it, right? Please feel free to share charts/strategies that are primarily intended to avoid loss. Thanks in advance!
My strategy to avoid loss: https://www.elitetrader.com/et/thre...s-100-success-rate.374766/page-7#post-5820109 I trade options on index.
Strategies To Avoid Loss! ---> Strategies To Embrace Loss! Either embrace loss or don't trade at all.
Have you ever thought of increasing stoploss a bit whenever you saw stoploss was hit then immediately trend resumed? That is what I call Embracing Loss! Otherwise it is just FEAR of loss, NOT embracing loss! My strategy above Embraces Loss, NOT fearing loss!
Right mister. Don't make the loss soo tiny. Because the market might hit your STOP. Then it resumes its trend. Max loss should be as per the trade plan.
Market must define our Max loss. It means the stoploss needs to be gradually repositioned until it is almost impossible for the EVENT of "stoploss hits then immediately trend resumes." On the other hand... Market must define when to exit based on EVENTS, NOT indicators or levels. Then I call the strategy as matured, objective and professional.
Examples of Events in the market... 1. Sideways market formation 2. Sideways market breakout 3. Support/resistance formation 4. Support/resistance failure 5. Trend reversal 6. Spike or sudden-huge movement with the trend My strategy above is purely based on EVENTS in the market. Can anyone here say that?
Do we need books, coaches, videos, etc to tell us how to Day Trade based on market EVENTS? Infact those books, coaches, videos, etc confused traders as much as possible. I would say those stuff are not even good for beginners. I won't even call market EVENTS based Day Trading as "outside box thinking". It is just thinking, that's all
