Is there anyone willing to share their Money Management strategy? em Negociantes Experientes Jul 01, 2010 at 06:18

Interesting, good post Elkart.I know that with Cast Iron Man the profit seems to go in cycles and this approach would definitely have paid off.

Is there anyone willing to share their Money Management strategy? em Negociantes Experientes Jun 30, 2010 at 20:24

I stake a certain percentage of capital per trade ( based on the pip value and the stop loss I am using ).I generally set this between 1% and 5% depending on the strategy. I generally look at the figures using Kelly Criterion to decide the actual percentage. The higher Kelly is the more I will lean towards 5%, the lower the nearer to 1%.I also take into account the number of trades per day. The more possible losses I might suffer in a day the more I will scale closer to 1%. It's not nice to come out of a day 25% down.

So true, most people never get to grips with the core psychology behind trading.Always looking around for the system that never loses, when all they really need is a risk/reward ratio that works with the hit rate.I'd much rather have a system that is right about half the time but makes more when it wins than a system that is right 95% of the time but take half your profits when it's wrong!

Actually the guy I spoke to has lost a lot, I nearly had a heart attack when he told me how much. Mainly I think because he over leveraged. It's quite common in the mirror signal provider world. Investors just see dollar signs. They stick a load of different systems on there and the equity curve tells them that they will be a millionaire by teatime and so they decide to go with it.Unfortunately, it's generally the case that the people who can't trade, don't understand lot sizes, leverage or drawdown are the ones that end up using signal provider services. It's a definite ca...

Not if you know the conventional fin arrangements of fish.It's interesting you should raise these issues Elkart. I've been contacted today by one of my subscribers and he's complained about some trades that aren't correct. I've investigated his account and there are about five trades that have not closed out when my feeder account has closed the trades. I have asked Tradency to investigate but it's looking as though maybe they do have some issues with trade management.

Tradency are in the process of recoding their entire software. I had a call with them the other week.They are planning to restrict the maximum number of trades a trader can open and reduce the maximum stop loss as well.They feel there are too many people writing systems to abuse the limits within their current system and want to attract more serious traders with strategies that are more sensible for real life trading.I was quite impressed with what I saw.No Mirror Signal provider is perfect but I assessed them all when I first started with Cast Iron Man and I found Tradency to easily be the be...

I've decided to make my backtests private in order not to hog the entire strategies board. I will publish the backtests on my blog.

I'm using fixed range bars, it reports all the bars as mismatched chart errors and the calculation for modelling quality gets screwed up. As long as you ensure you download the history before every backtest to ensure you're using the up to date minute data it should be okay - or at least as good as a normal 90% backtest anyway.As with all EA's though forward trading is the only way to prove the concept. It's looking good so far.

Nope, every tick.

Behemoth USDCHF 5% risk em Estratégias Jun 29, 2010 at 10:58

Hi Soeren,You can see the monthly performance in the summary at the bottom. Although the percentage figures are nonsense because I think MyFxBook are calculating from the backtest starting equity rather than the months starting equity you will see that since the beginning of 2007 on this pair there have been only two losing months.The strategy actually performs better in the recent past due to higher volatility in the markets.Steve

Behemoth NZDUSD 5% risk em Estratégias Jun 29, 2010 at 09:08

This is Behemoth compounded with 5% risk.Well, I say 5% risk. The lots maxed out and from then on it is fixed lot sizes of 99,999 lots.Yes, I realise that this is a preposterous lot size but there is really no other way to try and see what the compounding result is. I realise that the modelling quality - which is caused by using fixed range bars - means that the strategy will only prove itself in live trading and I have already put it live.

My guess is that this is some form of martingale system.The percentage won and the average per win/average per loss don't stack up otherwise.

Development on this is actually shelved at the moment while I work on Behemoth.So little time, so many trading ideas!I am running a forward test of the alpha version on MB Trading just to see how it works out.

A mobile phone friendly version of the dashboard em Caixa de Sugestões Jun 28, 2010 at 06:53

Excellent work on making this available.A couple of small issues.One, I seem to have the same graph for all my systems on the home screen and it doesn't match any of them I don't think.Secondly, would it be possible to have the percentage gain on the home screen as well, just as an initial quick queck?Thanks again for doing this. I've just got my new iPhone so it's been well timed.

Thanks for your comments.I have already put this EA on a live account. It is unlikely I will sell it, although I may run managed accounts with it.

Could somebody please lend me $150 em Estratégias Jun 27, 2010 at 10:04

Thanks for the mention Elkart.Cast Iron Man is my daily breakout strategy. Currently not performing too well.This is a new EA and I will only start managing with this once it has proved itself live.
