Ripassare il testo è sempre interessante.
Per esempio mi sono appena reimbattuto nel capitolo 7 sul "RATE OF DECREASE" cioè su come crearsi assimmetrie nei livelli di incremento e decremento dei contratti.
Anch'io uso dei livelli diversi di decremento...visto che c'ho un

...."
Another method I use frequently is to decrease at half the speed
that I increased contracts. If the levels of increase are at 10, 20, 30,
40, and 50, once I am over 50, I will not decrease until the account
moves back down to 45. The original rate of decrease would have me
decreasing at 50, 40, 30, 20, and 10....This variation of the rate of decrease accomplishes a slowed asymmetrical
leverage effect..There is a situation where asymmetrical
leverage can actually turn a $50,000 winning system into a breakeven
under the right circumstances.
Albeit these circumstances may never
occur in the real world of trading, let me illustrate it for you.
Suppose you start with $20,000 in your account and will increase
to two contracts at $25,000. At $23,000, you have a winning trade of
$2,000 that pushes the account to the $25,000 level. You now trade 2
contracts on the next trade. The next trade is a $1,000 loser, but
since you were trading two contracts, the total loss on the trade is
$2,000. Now the account is down to $23,000 and you are back to trading
one contract. The next trade is a $2,000 winner again and once
more, pushes the account to the two-contract level. The next trade is
a $1,000 loser but again with two contracts.
Do you see the cycle forming? The previous scenario based on trading
a single unit was actually up a total of $2,000. But, because of
asymmetrical leverage, the account is at a breakeven.
This cycle can
theoretically go on forever.However, by applying a rate of decrease
slower than the increase, you can avoid this. Instead of decreasing
after the first loss, the number of contracts remain at two. The next
trade is a $2,000 winner with two contracts and pushes the account to
$27,000. Now when the losing trade is incurred, the account only goes
down to $25,000, not $23,000. Further, after the losing trade comes
another winning trade of $2,000 per contract. This pushes the account
up to $29,000...."
) )..ne ho approfittato ora per rileggere il discorso del fixed ratio che mi ero posto mesi fa (seguo tx solo da 8 mesi)...secondo me bisogna anche capire quando è il caso di ridurli...buon we a tutti e grazie ai soliti noti (Pek,Kid,Spigolo,f4f e Quicks)! Nik
