I would say that it depends on how much open interest there is at that point. In an illiquid market, your order(s) will move the market more than in a liquid market. You can get partial fills up until there are no more limit orders left within your ...

When you close one side of the hedge, that's another trade, so again it's either a +1 or a -1 (depending on which side you close). So, let's say you have a perfect hedge +1, -1. At this point you are flat (your net position is 0 and you don't care ...

No one said you can't make money on both sides of the "hedge". What I am saying is that I can replicate the exact series of trades without "hedging", and actually end up a few pips better off because I pay less spread and possibly less overnight ...

I can confirm that Currenex is the same. So we have 2 professional level platforms that do not allow hedging vs. MT4. Hmmmm. The clients and designers of Currenex probably couldn't solve a grade 2 math problem

Bob, I have a degree in physics. In physics, there is A LOT of very complex math. There is a lot of linear algebra, and even more differential equations. While the math we do is not quite as rigorous as what pure mathematicians do, for you to imply ...

That pretty much sums it up for the gazillionth time. Someone said they studied mathematics at university, and asked for a mathematical proof: When you "hedge", you have one positive (long) position, and one equal but negative (short) position in ...

If you want to be flat, then don't have two offsetting trades on - just be flat. Tomorrow or next week, whenever you want to take a chance, then open a position. It's really that simple. You can be profitable when ...No SL No Leverage Strategy - working so far

Whether it is negligible or not depends. In any case, I don't see why someone would want to incur even a negligible cost in return for absolutely nothing. No. This type of hedging only controls your losses insofar as it eliminates (or reduces) your ...

Yes, that is correct. However, if you use EUR to buy USD, and then use USD to buy EUR, you have no market exposure - your account equity doesn't change regardless of where price moves (except your account is actually leaking due to overnight ...

Hedging again... I love this topic. "Hedging" does not help you, it only hurts you. You will make more money (or lose less) the moment you wean yourself off the "hedging" tit. This is a mathematical fact. The type of hedging that is done by ...
