It's like the discussion wasn't finished.
 

I've read many threads discussing Martin Trading vs Trend Trading. Discussing which of them is a better strategy. But I think this one is misleading traders.

The essence of trading is not the strategy. The essence of trading is not the strategy, but the underlying trade itself or the variety itself.

The market is essentially random can move at will. But the foreign exchange market must meet his characteristics. He must be between two countries currency exchange price performance. If it is a big country and big country, there will be flexible fluctuations or retracement. If all kinds of political economy between the two countries tend to stabilise. The bottom or top of the big range must be a good trading opportunity.

This is the essence of trading.

You just any reverse strategy in the market has been continued unilateral is all crumbs.

You just any trend strategy in the market has been oscillating when all are crumbs.

So the essence of the trade is that I used the reverse strategy to trade will not always continue unilateral varieties and I used the trend strategy to trade will not always continue to oscillate varieties.

Over!

 

i used this strategy 1 years ago ,better than the so call 'ollowing-trends-strategy.

but finally i lost all money ,without the riskmanagement.

then i think about this , and i can explain it in a symple way.


-------------

for simply, let 's get a symbol AAABBB - no matter what is it. and the current price is 1000.

1)buy 1lot of it ,then you get a ticket ( buy 1 1000 ) -> in format of (direction  lots  tickopenprice),same as follow.

2) when price drop to 800, there are 2 choice if want to open more ticket:

2A) open ( buy  2 800 ) . now the two ticket  { ( buy 1 1000) , ( buy  2  800 ) } are equal to a ticket (buy  3  866),means you don't open any ticket untill it reach 866 then you buy 3lots at 866.

or:

2B) open ( sell  2  800 ),  now the two ticket   { ( buy 1 1000) , ( sell  2  800 ) } are equal to a ticket(sell 1 600).

we can see ,no matter 2A or 2B, what it's done is to pull the cost down and make it get closer to the current price .

---------------

in the case of 2A(for exam),you could earn cash when price running up across 866.

but what if the price keep falling?

just another 2A or 3B.

----------------------

BUT! 2 THINGS TO REMEMBER! THESE ARE WHAT I LEARN AFTER I LOST MY MONEY.

1. in the case of 2A(for exam),if price keep going down,the more 2A or 2B, the deadline are also drop down.

    the deadline is the price position. if price reached there,all ticket will force to cancel.

    do the math and mark the deadline, it is visualable that the margin% in the status bar.

2. the swaps. it could be our heave loads if we lock the order (buy tickets and sell tickets).

 
Excellent article. I'm studying further.
 
Thank you for the article! Very informative, clear and lucid.
 

Two years have passed. You can do a test on the new 2017-2019 data for your chosen parameters. This will turn out to be a forward.
Usually the best forward models change the trend from rising to falling.

I wonder if this will be the same with your methodology? Or is the fit to history still avoided?

Yeah. That's an interesting topic, by the way. I don't know how things are now - you can look at it, but there was a published signal - the account on it was merged, due to a HUGE, in IMHO, well or among others, difference - there 10 times - it is a difference between SL and TR, conditionally, SL 90 TR 970 - it's nonsense - you can't do that.... If you put it that way, then it is necessary, for example, to hook the trawl from the profile....

I want to test it myself... and yes - it will be forward.

I'll post what will work - here...

 
Is there no version for MT4?

Only analogues in code base - here for example
I'm using it myself now in real trading. I've added a trawl from the profit.
