Forex hedging

Hi,

I am new to forex and would be grateful for some advice.

I have been wondering about hedging by buying and selling a forex pair at the same time.

Is it true to say that once the winning side of the hedge is closed you can then transfer the profits to increase your margin on the losing side?

I know this may sound naive but I am just curious. I may have gotten the logic of it wrong in some way.

I would greatly appreciate advice and opinions

Thanks

Its an idea that comes up from time to time in forex circles but most retail traders find its not worthwhile for short-term positions.

Don’t lose sight of the fact that at some point you have to take a stand - you have to decide to hold one position and close the other. So why not stay in cash until that day and then just jump in? I can only add, don 't let the tail wag the dog.
