smilee89 replied Aug 12, 2013You don't get the point. Since the "follow up" entries are not steady, there is no a strict TP. TP should be bigger than whole previous entries' losses to cover drawdown (floating losses) + some profit. Approx. TP for 2nd entry is 1st entry loss + ...

smilee89 replied Aug 11, 2013The idea is not to be glued to the screen, it's the opposite. I wrote lot size 0.1, 0.1, 0.3 and 0.6, but I did not mean this is the size. I meant that instead of using 1.1 lot at first entry, I divide my trade to 4 entries. You may chose to risk ...

smilee89 replied Aug 11, 2013The TP for "follow up" trades is not at 1st entry nor in previous entry. TP is shorter every time a new "follow up" trade is opened. It is changing according the distance between the SMA's. Actually I would love to test it with an EA so I may get a ...

smilee89 replied Aug 11, 2013First, you miss something very important. There is no average profit. The profit may change a lot since it depends on TF, pair and its volatility. You can gain huge profit when a trade is open with all 4 entries. Let me remind you that TP is based ...

smilee89 replied Aug 10, 2013Here is a good case when price went way back down before the pullback in the direction of the trend/trade. According to the money management explained in the first post: 1st entry - 0.1 lot=~1$ per pip 2nd entry - 0.1 lot=~1$ per pip 3rd entry - 0.3 ...

smilee89 replied Aug 10, 2013Thanks Davit, I appreciate your words. The risk can be changed of course according to each trader. I.e, if you risk only 1% of your account per trade (divided to Max. 4 entries) you can gain profit of 200% after 1 year (500-800 trades). DD can be ...

smilee89 replied Aug 10, 2013I don’t think I am too much involved with MA's, believe me. It took me a long time to be convinced to go back and trade using MA's, after I tried it at the past and was very upset using them. This time it works great!
