53 pip profit + Horizon wins yet again! + New Horizon tradeIf these ranges lasted forever, I wouldn't mind at all.
I took 53 pips this morning long, this was something I posted 2 times about last night and this morning, so check those out for a more in depth look at the signals that lead to that move. It's really important in this market to be in before the move happens, you miss out on a lot of money, and your exposure almost triples when you chase the market. Remember that.
Horizon took 76 pip profit today from last Friday. That's nearly 50 pips net, since the beginning of this range. It took a 60 pip loss after being up almost 80 pips on Thursday. It couldn't find a valid exit, which is annoying considering that this strategy could have produced over 140 pips in profit last week. Trust me I've played with trailing stops and static profit targets with this strategy and they just don't work nearly as well as just letting trades run and waiting for a strong exit signal. Trade number 3 was the worst loss Horizon has taken to date, I mentioned earlier that Horizon assesses stop losses on bar close and not in real time, so the strategy is exposed adversely to large break out candles like the one in the picture below. This is a risk that I'm willing to accept though because A. Horizon mitigates that risk using multiple confirmation protocols and B. the RR is 3-4 times the losses. This strategy is designed to take 30-50 pips on average, with occasional 100-200 pip trend. As things stand, Horizon's average loss is only about 20-30 pips. Plus Horizon's wining 6-7/10 at this point so it's all good! Plus I'm adding some logic this week that I'm hoping will boost performance even further. So far it's 2/3 and currently 30 pips up on it's 4th live trade. That said if I DID find a better alternative to this stop loss strategy, I would more than likely cut my max draw down in half. It's sitting at about 8-9 right now, which I would love to get down to about 5% using the same risk. Horizon's current exposure is 1.7% per trade because of the draw down rules that FTMO and other prop firms put in place. With my own capital, I could easily raise that to 2-3%, I don't really want to though (yes I do)
Horizon , like I mentioned has pyramided a short trade which has been as high as 35 pips profit, so far, so this one's looking like a winner as well.
Overall that's 150 pips taken between me and the machine in the last 4-5 days, so very happy, and I'm praying for even further success in the coming weeks. I'll link each post so you can audit my trades. I post these trades well before the moves actually happen.
ETHUSD Long, 12% loss with leverage. Consistency brings profithello traders,
here we go with the next signal.
XProfit just printed a long on the 3Hr chart. Closed the previous short with 12% in loss since we automate the strategy with leverage of 2. (multiplies the wins and the losses in terms of percentage by a factor of 2)...
This is a mid/long term strategy for people understanding the long term game plan of trading.
We take small loss.... sometimes even a loosing streak which hurt a bit the account.. 20/25/30% Loss.
Sometimes we trade in range where if nothing is done manually to secure profit we end up making nothing for a month.... +/- 0%
...BUT...
And that's why we're here... Then comes the fruits and the reward of patience, consistency and courage.....
We catch the big moves and the huge drop.. where we make 40'%...80%...130%...
And This type of trading is in long term a winning strategy...
It's as simple as that...
Look at trade details .... Don't forget to multiply everythig by a factor of 2 since we're trading with a leverage of 2.
Cheers and happy trading.
