There are enough new and hopeful people in the market that they will sell plenty of copies. My test account is currently up by about $20k and the drawdown is about $21k. How bad of a drawdown can you get??? From my experience, martingales drawdown alll the way.
Make losses, but always come out a winner at the end. |

Well, I finally decided to kill the EURJPY pair. It looks like we are in for a few hundred more pips to the downside and it started opening some big lot sizes far too closely spaced. So, I bit the bullet and killed the trades. Altogether, the loss was in the order of about $15,000 on the EURJPY pair ONLY.
Some of those trades were in excess of -600 pips. So......one month.....all 6 pairs gained $20,000 and one pair that started trending strongly wiped out $15,000, and it would probably have been much, much more if I had let it run. Please be exceedingly careful if you run this system. Use the absolute lowest possible risk you can if you are going to use it!! Final note....make sure you are prepared to lose ALL of the money in the account you put it on. Martingale systems are well known for blowing accounts. Make losses, but always come out a winner at the end. |

Also, i would like to add......DO NOT fool yourself into thinking that you will let it run and watch for it to keep it from getting into a big drawdown. Martingale systems are well known for getting into big drawdowns before you realize how bad it actually is. By the time you realize that the market is in a hardcore trend, the DD will already be half your account. New traders....you have been warned.

One other thing, minimum risk is apparently using 1:1 leverage. i say that because on a $40,000 account, it is opening 0.4 lot positions

After that it increases lots, e.g. for the account of 200,000 it starts trading with 2.4 or 2.5 lots. I'm talking about 2% risk set up. Fughe, you probably mentioned 1% risk, didn't you ? |

Yeah....that's where the 'minimum risk' statement enters in.
