    Hi All,

    I use a hedging egy to exchange after being ill of my trades going through my stop losses.

    Firstly, I use an 18 EMA. As an example. The price crosses the line indiing the price could begin going up. I buy and sell at the specific same time. The price has gone up 100 pips and is turning to come down, it's crossed the EMA. I exit the buy and set a buy stop above the only in case the price goes up. I wait for the price to come down 50 pips and take the other trade at a loss considering it could be a pull back anyway,

    Allow me to create an opinion. I do not utilize hedging egy. It's not appropriate in several respects because I believe. It often occurs that the trader is concerned, and he didn't have the patience to wait out the negative, but shut it and take losses, he does not want. Then, the trader opens the order from the opposite direction. I believe that the risk of losing from the hedging of a lot more. Because such a egy - a method. That's my opinion, maybe because it is never used by me, I wasn't capable.

    I believe you're mistaken. Having patience while at negative is not good unless you've got a stop loss. For instance before Christmas. If you purchased GBP/CHF or even GBP/JPY and just waited, by this time you would be over 5,000 pips down combined. Hedging is great since you are able to exchange it down, lock in your profit and get out the commerce on the pullback making yourself a 300 pips or so per week. You have to understand what pairs to exchange this egy on and do a little homework. I propose never hedge on USD or GBP pairs. JPY AUD and NZD pairs are ideal for hedging.

    Interesting observation - I have been hedging EUR/USD and GBP/USD for quite a while now with exceptional results I wonder why you indicate otherwise?

    Hedging is among the most powerful ways to trade the markets. For me, it is by far the approach that is most powerful.

    It took me two full years and approximately 150k to understand how to take action. Luckily for me, at least half of these 150k is gone on EA progress. The other part I have paid for the classes I had to learn the way - by trading experience that was live.

    Briefly place:

    1. Forex is a game of stop losses, not profits. Only the fools expect profits. That's why about 99.99percent of all retail traders are net winners.

    2. Knowing 1, an individual should search for ways to turn the obvious (the infinite process of SL collection) into their favor.

    3. Doing 2 is possible simply by combining trend and range egies into a single bundle egy, which in reality is nothing, but pure hedging.

    How you have to hedge?

    Just place the stop orders of this tendency egy to be confronting together with the limit orders of this range egy, head to head. They ought to be facing against each other. With some distance in between. It's not possible to predict that part of this bundle will perform.

    Normally the trend is the better performer, but not necessarily. Trading a tendency egy during 80% of time once the rate stays in range will imply just bad news to the account balance and dimensions. The same is valid for the range egy, as part of the whole bundle.

    Here are just two examples of this current closures I did on my 2 TEs, that utilize a 50% hedge approach. On occasion the master (the tendency ) takes over, other times the servant (the range) takes over... I care not that one does what. What is important it is the net outcome, which is positive.

    Please keep in mind that what you will see on these pictures is something I have already left. For me, there are far better ways to market. On the very top of this, this info is insanely expensive. By way of instance, a London is currently paying 45M to get a system with 5% DD and annual return. Thus far I have attained 1.2percent of DD with 3.8percent monthly return. Therefore, sometime in 2017, I am planning to show them my monster infants...

    I agree 100%. I've been messing around for a couple of decades now, and every statistical strategy that is further always gets me to this end. Hedge / correlation hedge and bilateral egies is the way you'll be able to make whatever the market says.
