Default Questions

Daedalus

I’m a newbie and have been following your thread with great interest (and being entertained at various points as well) . I do have a few questions if you don’t mind:

1) How many pairs do you follow? Do you generally stay with the majors, or do you have a list of favorites? (Can you give us this list, if applicable?)
2) With all the pairs mentioned above, how many trades (on average) do you open a day? (Just trying to see how many trading opportunities the system produces)
3) How long does a typical trade last? (30 minutes-ish? An hour? Several hours? Etc…)
4) How big of a bet do you typically take per trade relative to your account size? For example, if you had a $5000 account, how many lots/minilots would you enter per trade?
5) Did I read somewhere that you do have a full time job while trading? If so, how do you find the time to manage your trades? Does your employer allow you to trade at work? Are you entering/exiting trades during non-working hours?
6) I’m sorry if you posted this somewhere else already, but: What is the success rate of the system. I mean, if you took every opportunity you see (given the conditions that you already spelled out), approximately how any trades would result in a win? A loss? An approximate breakeven?
7) Is this the only/primary system you use in your trading?

Thanks in advance! Also, just wanted to say that it never ceases to amaze me the way some people would give so much time and effort to help others, while asking for nothing in return. Karma loves people like you!
