System: UltimateSystem
Description: I have been trading Forex for several years. My system works on lower time frames, by locating overbought/oversold levels and support/resistance areas where a retracement is most probable.
When a signal is received, one order is placed with initial stop loss and take profit. These SL and TP are only emergency levels, included to prevent unexpected and potentially damaging movements. My system calculates dynamically the final profit and loss levels and closes the order when these levels are reached. Most of the time only one order is taken for each traded pair, but if the market conditions are favorable, up to three orders can be taken for each pair.
Max risk for any initial trade can go from 3% to 5% of total equity. Losses are part of trading and they cannot be completely avoided. However, my system has a high ratio of winning trades, and it has proved to be profitable in the long term.
