Strat's PASR Long Term, Stress Free Trading

Quoting heispark
Just curious.... Do anyone here post charts before the fact? or post live TE? I see only hind sight charts here. It's kind of a 'culture' here.... As you know, hind sight view is always perfect especially with moving average based systems. My observation is moving average based systems are very tricky and people need very good skills to be profitable. I am seriously doubt how many people are really profitable... No offense anyway.
Hey friend, not sure I understand your point...
As far as I am concerned, I don't post my trades to attract fans, just to show what use of PASR can do to help others.
I could also post my many wrong trades, but unless they are helpful for specific reasons, I don't see the need, and I generally understand my mistakes by myself.

As for real time trading announcements, those like me who try to live off of trading can't really do that, and the few times I indicated my H1 trades, they blew over my face and I hope no one followed me

Hope this helps

One more thing. Personally, I don't believe the edge of various candle patterns. If I have to believe, I believe only two: inside bar and pin bar just like Nial Fuller said. Even these two patterns are very often be used as a trap by market makers.... You guys really see the edge of candle patterns?
If you cannot see an edge in price action, then find something else. Me, for example cannot trade Elliot Waves, Fibonacci calculations, MACD or whatever is out there. There are people calculating their price levels by complex algos and make money doing so. Kudos to them! They are way above my intelligence level! But good thing is that I have at least a normal "porridge between my ears" as Strat calls it, so I can find something simple that suits me.

I follow price and nothing else. It works best for ME! You really have to look what works for YOU! That is the reason why trading takes so much time to learn. And I keep on learning, so I can survive this and come out green!
Fix up, trade sharp ...

Why someone will have to prove to you that a system is profitable FOR REAL or not? It matters for you if I make or lose money on real account or demo?

And let's say someone will prove you that, showing you a positive TE..... then what? will you immediately start trading this strategy without any doubts? What if you take some losses from this system? Would you come again in here asking for more proves? C'mon....

Here is a system presented by Strat, and the rest of us we just trying to make good use of that system in the way each can, either adding our previous knowledge either taking the system as it is. Is that simple.

My advice.....try it. Give it a month. Or two. Or more.

Its always a matter of choice.

Believe it or not!

One more thing.....We are all trading same markets, same prices, same patterns and after all, we are competitors lol

Maybe we all make good use of this thread and forum to attract other participants to the market in order to mislead them, disappoint them and take their money through trading (their loss our win).

The world is bad but in FX seems that things are not like that, in this 'world' seems that "sharing is carrying" ..... at least in retail level.
On PRO, you would have to pay good money to get proper training. And even then, you don't know if that would make you a successful trader!
So get what you want, or feel that you can replicate, and do some money.

More - better!

Another thing about posting live trades.

Speaking for myself. When posting a live trade upon entry it introduces me to a new batch of "little people". So why bother? This category of psychology does not need to be tackled to be a successful trader. My trades are my business, what I see on a chart will not be what anyone else sees. My eyes, experience, background and a slug of other things go into a trading decision.

And I guarantee. If Strat and others started making "Calls" in the Fx market there would be thousands on this thread salivating for the next call and as a result not learn a damn thing. Start started this thread to give back and teach. Not flaunt his ego. Besides ego has no place in trading. Making calls will puff up ego.

There is only one person to whom I need to show that I am a profitable trader …… me.

I agree with everything you say....including "ego has no place in trading "

But oh boy, we are all full of ego, isn't this the first cause of losing in trading? First ego driving into greed then fear? (actually greed is a variant of fear - eg. FOMO)

Sometimes I read threads here in FF and i feel like we are all actors in a series like "Sons of Anarchy"...

Candle itself gives you some information, to fill it up you need to add its position and relation to other candles

Out of curiosity, I know this is personal and each one has to find his own way, but in this case you opened 5 positions, what % do you normally risk on each?
Maybe if that is something that one should not share, could you explain if you like to use the same risk% for each, or if you reduce after each trade (or the opposite).
For example:
1- 0.2%
2- 0.3%
3 -0.4%
4- 0.5%
5- 0.6%

Do you always like to use a higher number of open positions with smaller risk% or it depends on the kind of setup?

please do not feel obliged to answer, I'm just learning basic PASR so risk % on multiple orders is still ahead

Hey AJ

hmmm not a very savy computer person here... searched on google but did not find anything too promising, only people who could not fix it...

have you tried:

1. disabling your anti virus during install
2. right clikcing and "run as admnistrator"
3. downloaded latest the version from mql https://www.metatrader4.com/en/download

If I remember something else I'll let you know

If you take GOLD H1 chart and draw fibs you will see we were right at 50% retracement for that swing. Its all about S/D or S/R. Nothing secret.

WARNING! DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME! TRADE ONLY WITH ONE ENTRY -SL&TP !

I don't trade as most guys do, (but believe me when I say that i had my fair share of slaps over chicks because of that) I 'spread' a certain amount of lots over a zone or level. I know from before how much (give-or-take) I want to risk in money (or %) and then I translate this amount into lots.
Then it can be a grid type of trading (eg. 1+1+1+1+1) or some martingale (1+1+1+2+4) depends on the nature and the style of PA at that moment.

As a matter of fact (without being a douchebag trying to show off) here is my trading lot size at that time.

Basically, instead of being a sniper, waiting for the perfect setup for one shot one kill, I switch to machine gun and I fire rounds to cover a level.

No offense but are you trading based on Strat's system? Where are the Big Boss or Boss? I know Gold likes 50% retracement but your entries are way before the candle confirmation by Big Boss or Boss.....

"What would you attempt to do, if you knew your success was a certainty?"
I believe your strategy but the question is that when you are opening orders according to trend and then your guess or signal was wrong and your order has started falling into losses. then what would you do? and how would you cover your losses in such situation without adding lots or using any martingale function?

Thanks.

He does, this was basic PASR on m1/m5 off of the H1 trend and R. If a trade works, you eventually realize PASR was involved at some stage, consciously or not

I believe you can see on his charts that he takes the loss as anyone should do. sometimes you lose and that's all there is to it

You take the loss like a real man. If you are hesitant then trading is not for you. Small loss can transform very quickly in major or huge loss.
