This could be a dead end, as was suggested by many, and even given more strength by accompanying pow in the form of math or code.
But hedging on a single pair and multi instrument hedging are two very different things.
So my advice to you is to study the correlation of momentum between pairs.
yes i agree with you marco.
now the so-called 'hedging' on a single pair might seem as the 'smart-ass' move by some, but now i see it is really pointless...
sure, i will try and study the correlation between pairs and try to figure out what works for me.
Thx
I have tried grid and martingale, with and without hedging. Hedging doesn't work. I have given up on that. I prefer grid over martingale (martingale is a sure shot margin call + risk-reward isn't worth it + you always have drawdowns that dwarves your profits). Grid still works as it works in the direction of the trend, however, finding the elements that work is a holy grail; elements such as grid distance (which is different for each symbol), lot sizing, TP, etc., If you have a huge account size (let's say USD 100k+ with 1:500 or better leverage), then I have an EA that performs very well, with a hard stop at 20% drawdown on your account balance. Backtest shows that such an event happened only twice in the last 5 years on trading XAUUSD. Average return is USD 25k profit per year on 100k investment. So you are getting approx 25% ROI on a max 20% risk in the first year. There onwards, your risk minimizes as you can withdraw profits > potential risk (20k). But then, if you have 100k to spend, you might as well buy NQ a decent drop and forget about it. Unless the bubble bursts ala 1929 (and if it does, buy NQ with everything you have got - the next crash will not happen for another 100 years), you will have hard assets on 0 leverage that will pay dividends and a peaceful sleep while growing >25% average / year.
martingale with hedging is not good i agree. but scalper with hedging is another thing, i have strategy that works well with scalper plus hedge
does any body used hedging, i want to know what are the strategy are used to close opposite hedge trade ?
