Wow what a good performance we had in February 2011.

We had 13 trades which gave us a profit of 653 $ (13,07%).

My total gain now after 174 days trading this strategy is 58,35%.

I'll keep trading with 2% risk.

Arrow My personal success ladder

The best trade sizing approach is where the system:
  • decreases the position sizing in a losing streak
  • and increases the position sizing in a winning streak


This is often referred to as the anti-Martingale system.

By achieving the above goals my trading account is protected in a losing streak as I am risking and losing smaller amounts. In a winning streak my trading account will increase as my deal sizing increases making my winners produce more.

The question is then:
  • What is a winning streak or a losing streak?
  • How much should I increase my position sizing?

For me a winning streak is any time I have gained 10 times the amount I risk per trade. A losing streak is where I have lost 10 times the amount I risk per trade.

If I start trading with $ 1.000 in my account and risk 1% ($10) on each deal:

When I have increased my trading account by 10% or to $ 1.100 (10 times the risk of 1%), I increase my position sizing to 1.5% of the original account balance ($1.000). Should my account balance reach +25% (10% + 10 times risk of 1.5%) I increase the position size to 2% of the original account balance. And so on. So for each increase in the account equal to 10 x the amount risked, I increase the position by 0.5%. This allows me to continuously increase the position sizes with unlimited of the upside.

However when my account goes below the level it was before the increases mentioned above (below $1.100), I continue trading at the increased level (1.5%) until the previous level has been reached ($1.000). So in my above example once the percentage risked goes to 1.5% when the account is over $ 1.100, I continue trading with the risk of 1.5% until my account balance goes back to $ 1.000 where I will use the 1% again.

By using the above principles I can apply a success ladder approach to my trading account balance so that I can fully benefit from successful streaks and be protected in losing streaks.

Here you can get a FREE MT4 indicator to calculate the proper lot size very quickly before you open a new position based on stop loss and risk percentage.

To your success,
