Hi Xux99,
Thanks for your valuable input. I am yet to get the hang of using myfxbook for backtesting purposes.
I have found that Forexhard from the SBBO thread uses martingale to win back losses, this is probably the best way to trade with this system at the moment because the first trade of a tradeset winning is about 60% at the best.

Hi Xux99,
I have seen alot of charts on the FF thread with ‘Close trade 1, close trade 2, close trade 3, down the left hand side. This indicates that majority of the time the first trade of a trade set does not hit the profit target. So far I have backtested Squalous indicator on alot of currencies, but most of them take 3-4 tradesets…[Read more]

Xux99,
Thank you for your prompt response!
So am I right in saying once the first tradeset quick tp hits the stop the next subsequent trade should be opened for twice that amount so to factor in recovery and profit on top? So for the first trade it would be 0.10 lot for example, do you recommend the second to be 0.20?
Sometimes when the…[Read more]

Hi Xux99 and Co,
I have admired your work and Squalous work since the SSBO thread started over at FF.
