I hedge bitcoin perpetual futures on crypto exchanges with 100x leverage. I was profitable trading with a stop loss but when I started hedging my account grew a lot quicker. Like everything it has it's pros and cons and it not for everyone. Keep up the videos on hedging, few channels speak about it and is often looked down upon.
Hi, Thanks. I tried to download data but it's not allowing older data. In One minute timeframe it allows only 3 Months historical data. Is there any way to get more older data?
Interesting approach. Not possible with futures to open a second opposite positions without closing the first one but for anyone trading CFDs seems like a good alternative to hard stop losses.
I am like little profit and break even. I have tested my stragity it's good but now I knw my setup doesn't work in sideways market and before this I was unable to identify sideways market in real time but now I can
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Im so glad. I modified the text a little bit too! e.g. At Level 1, in the Description Column instead of "1R @ %$" I typed "1:1RR = %$" and at Level 0, in the Description Column I typed "S.L. = %$"
@@TradingHeroes it shouldn't be on new laptops, but if the previous owner was/is savvy enough, it can be the case on second hand ones. Some malwares can even target opcodes from the motherboard so the CPU doesn't even read some instructions
Where did you download this MT5 from? is it from a specific broker? I've tried it, it only allows me to download data from 2022. I would like to download older data.
I have figured out how to enter into a long position on trading view but i’ve having trouble figuring out how to enter a short position. Is this available through paper trading? and if so, how could i enter short?
Linux is a solid OS that breathes new life into old laptops. My gaming laptop dual boots Windows 11 and MX Linux, and my older laptop only runs MX Linux. I'm trying to get used to the free and open source ecosystem, because there's no costs to teach yourself computer skills. It's not just Microsoft that's getting hate, but Adobe is also getting hate with their predatory business model (they even charge a ridiculous termination fee for your $60 monthly subscription just to use ONE app of their entire suite).
Yeah it does take some getting used to, but it has progressed a lot from even 5 years ago. Adobe is getting pretty crazy...I switched from Photoshop to Affinity Photo and it works just fine. Apple does computer side file scanning too, so it's a good idea for us to start using Linux.
The point of a hedge is to lock in that loss when the market conditions for your strategy do not work. Essentially, riding out the wave then re-entering again on a favored long or short net position when the conditions make sense again for the strategy.
You should only take the hedge if your original position is becoming a loser. You leave both open and once the hedge position is wining at an important support of resistance, you open another position to break even the first losing one
I always wanted to trade crypto, so I gave it a shot despite being confused by the price volatility. Even after watching many RU-vid videos, I found it <difficult to understand and ended up losing my trades.
I do wish you'd talked a bit about ergonomics. It looks to me like you're having to stretch your thumb downward slightly away from the trackball to reach left click, which would make my thumb and then my whole hand start to hurt after hours of use. It also looks like the little finger lines up on a button, which would cause me problems, because I want my little finger resting on a neutral surface. It doesn't look like I could rest my little finger without pressing the button.
The idea of hedging doesn't really make sense because the same logic can be used if you just take the loss in the first place and make it back from other hopefully profitable trades. I think the main advantage of hedging is that it allows you to not take the loss. The mental aspect of taking losses creates fear and hesitation and messes up your thinking. But the actual mechanics of working the hedge is the same as just closing a loss and then making it back with subsequent profitable trades if one has a consistent strategy that is.
I’m sorry, I should have been more specific as to what I meant by software. Thank you for pointing me in that direction. I thought you listed specific EA’s that work and I was looking for that list. I’m thinking about purchasing Kong EA by Quantum Bots and wanted to see if it was something you had come across before.
