A Different Strategy
It’s as simple as this: I don't try to make a ton of money on each trade, and I
never try to get revenge. I’m not a scalper (someone who sits and makes 20-second
trades for a few pips at a time).
Instead, I set up good trades, that have a lot of potential, and then I shoot for 10
pips. Just 10 pips. That’s it. I don’t let myself lose a lot of money. I only try to get
10 pips, and if that’s all I get, then I’m out for the day. It's easy enough to get 10 pips
that once that threshold is met, it's okay to get out. When you know that you can
turn turn $10,000 into $130,000 in one year on 10 pips a day, it's no longer important
to strike back at the market or get greedy on one day of trading.
And you can learn to turn $10,000 into $130,000 in one year on just 10 pips a day.
Why is this innovative, different, or revolutionary? Because you are going to not
only take money from novices with this strategy, you’re going to take money from
other advanced traders. Advanced traders want big money. They didn’t spend years
learning to trade so that they could make $200 a day. They want big, big returns.
They go for 40 pips at a minimum. They are conservative with their trading capital
because the market can take BIG swings against them when they’re waiting for 40
pips. Advanced traders think I’m nuts for getting out of a trade at 10 pips. What if it
goes to 40 pips? Won’t I be upset that I missed out?
Strategy:10 – PAGE 8
Not at all. I’ll show you later how I can still make those 40 pips. But I’m never
displeased with 10. First, though, I’ll explain stops and limits.
Stops and Limits
A STOP is placed so that you don't lose too much money. For example, if I
bought EUR/USD at 1.1445, I would start losing money if it started moving down.
So, I might set a STOP at 1.1425 -- meaning, if the currency drops to that level, the
system AUTOMATICALLY exits the trade. I'm out 20 pips, but that's a lot better
than being out 40 pips if it starts tanking really fast (and this happens all the time, as
you have seen).
A LIMIT works the same way, only for gains. If I set my limit to 1.1535 on that
same trade, then later in the day (or the hour), when the currency moves up to 1.1535,
the system AUTOMATICALLY exits the trade, and I make money. This happens
whether I'm still at the computer, or down the street, or dead. THIS IS THE ONLY
WAY TO TRADE IF YOU’RE NOT GOING TO BE PRESENT TO WATCH
THE TRADE.
My system for trading relies heavily on three things:
1. Technical analysis - a ½ hour, 3 hour, daily, weekly, and monthly chart.
2. STOPS and LIMITS.
3. 10-pip goal every day. This requires DISCIPLINE.
If you started with $10,000 on January 1st, and earned 10 pips per day, and only
traded 17 days of the month, then you would end the year 2,000 pips UP, and with
about $130,000. For a spreadsheet that details this system,
If you continued the next year with 10-pips per day, the next year you would be
making between $10,000 and $17,000 per month trading (depending on your risk
tolerance). Can you do this? Absolutely. Can you do this today? Maybe, maybe
not. You have to dedicate yourself 100% to learning how to trade intelligently.
