“2 Baskets” System 2018 Results Before I begin, I would like to remind all that I trade with 50:1 leverage. So if I had a win of 2%, it would be 4% for someone trading with 100:1 leverage and 8% for someone with 200:1 leverage. Similarly, a 10% loss ...

I'm not giving up entirely on the original "2 Baskets". I'll still be trading it but I will be allocating a lot more funds to "Negative Trigger". I've been working on a write up summarizing the results of "2 Baskets" for 2018 and also providing my ...

Those are very impressive results, 200 pips per day for 6 weeks. I would like to run some tests using your method. I have been running tests with CMSM 17.01 for the past 4 weeks and my results are nowhere as good as yours. I have been using the ...

I believe this is going to be a very profitable method. The way I look at it is that I am trusting the trade suggestions made by the indicator, but I am going to wait for a better price before I open a basket.

It is not that simple for me to use a "lots per balance" because the margin requirement will depend on the number of pairs and which pairs specifically. For example, with Oanda with 50:1 leverage, the margin requirement to trade 0.01 lots of EUR/USD ...

Exactly, slow and steady is the way to go. Almost all of my winning baskets close between 150 pips to 250 pips, rarely higher. The average win is about 2.5%. I don't hold out for those big pip winners.
