You have to avoid: drugs, martingale and liberals.

You can crash in a car, but that's no reason to walk.

Everyone understands martingale in their own way, some see it as an outright evil and that martingale will never bring profit on a long run, some on the contrary stick to the option that martingale is our everything.

In life people walk on stretched ropes between abysses, some swallow swords, etc. - Out of thousands of such people, only a few will succeed and not get seriously injured and these few will have a big fee. So with martingale, it is walking on a tightrope between two skyscrapers, most will fall, only a few will succeed.

I personally cannot even psychologically agree to such an "extreme" in the form of martingale. I used to use martingale when I was young and green I used to put martingale in my TS both in betting and forex, etc. Then when I started treating business more like a business, making long term plans, taking into account possible failures, etc. I immediately lost the option to martingale. But I am sure there are extreme professionals who trade on margin, good luck to them, I would rather climb to the top of the mountain inside the cable car than on the rope itself.

If you move in a losing direction you will get the same profit as you will get a minus on a martin leg at that time. profit + minus = 0...


No way!... And even if you act NOT the way you act at that time on martin ?...

Strange,... that's not how it works for me at all

You can act on a martin in different ways. The difference is that there are different types of martin: averaging, reversal, or both in one bottle.
 
khorosh:
You can do different things on a martin. Because there are different types of martin: averaging, reversal, or both in one bottle.

Of course...

But, it is now a question of making sure that the trading system on the "compensator" does not mirror the system of Martin's compensated by it

That goes without saying, with a mirror repetition there will be a lock.

Yep, "fixed lot" martin, "fixed percentage risk" martin, fixed leverage martin...

I wonder if you have an MM that is not called a "martin" ?

A strategy here is usually called a martin if it either uses a larger lot to beat off losses, or is overridden by multiple orders with the same lot.
 

And if I open very small trades to probe the market, many of which I lose, but once a month I open a trade 50 times bigger than all the others - is that MARTIN? It doesn't matter how you work, it's how you make money.
