Hey guys.
Wow. What good stuff you put out there Philip. It is good to keep all that in mind.
Well, I would like to talk about the short term. This week. I’m gonna tell you my idea. And plan.
Ok. So, you all know that I like to trade a basket of trades. I think it’s good for diversification.
You all know that I look at the field. And I have the numbers for back testing any kind of idea.
You know I always seem to bring up the ‘Major/Comm’ thing. (I think I’m the only one!)
This is it.
I’m trading the Majors against the Comms.
That’s 15 trades. (3 Comms against 5 Majors)
And I’m going with the Comms long against the Majors. Now. I put them on at the open.
See, all I need to do is find which of them is trending over the other. Do you remember only a few months ago that the Majors had it all over the Comms? Generally it was pretty easy to figure out who was on top.
And now we have a change. I know…I have read that this all could be just a real good retracement. But, I don’t think so. I have seen the Comms peak up, just to fall back down. It’s happened a few times last month.
And I was thinking they are getting poised for some real strength. And sure enough, it has started, beginning with October.
Ok, and if I’m wrong, well, I will see the numbers. They will convince me. And then…I go with the Majors against the Comms.
It’s gonna be one or the other, for me. Do you know…if I would have thought about this just before last weekend was over, I would have done this, this past week. Ok. So, do you want to know the outcome??? You are not gonna believe it.
+4,375 pips.
Well, I have not defined exactly when to exit yet. I have options in mind.
And the position sizing I’ve upted. I went with a 2k size each. Which turns out to be like a 30k one trade size.
I was trading with 1k with around 17-20 different pairs. But, I’ve been thinking that’s just not enough.
Well, I’m super excited with this style of trading. And I know I need to refine the trade management of it.
Maybe I might keep them open for entire week.
So I see it like this, this week.
The trend is with the Comms. Unless I see something big changing that, it’s all Comms.
I’m not afraid to keep you guys posted on my results.
This is big stuff.
Mike
