'Fixed Ratio' Money Management
Money management is the most important and overlooked subject in
trading!
In my opinion, the best money management system for
Forex/Futures traders is outlined in great detail in Ryan Jones'
book The Trading Game: Playing by the Numbers to Make Millions.
In this book, he teaches 'Fixed Ratio' money management. This
method, he argues, will help any trading system as long as it is
profitable over time.
This is how to put the fixed ratio money management system into
practice:
1. Start with the total number of dollars in your trading
account. For example let's say it's 1000 USD.
2. Now pick how many pips profit you need to achieve before you
trade with more lots. Let's say 200 pips (10 pips/day for 20
trading days in a month average).
3. Now start trading .1 mini lots (which is profit/loss 1 USD).
You would only increase to .2 lots after gaining 200 pips. When
you gain 200 more pips profit you would trade .3 lots etc...
4.Here is an example of how fixed ratio trading would work:
Month 1: $1000 + (200 pips x .1 lot = $200 ) Total: $1200
You start with $1000 in your trading account and after 1 month
of trading you gain 200 pips profit trading .1 lots. You now
have $1200 in your trading account. You are now at the next
level. If your account balance falls below $1200 then you will
go back to trading .1 lots.
Month 2: $1200 + (200 pips x .2 lots = $400) Total: $1600
You now start month two with $1200 and gain 200 pips profit
trading .2 lots. You now have $1600 in your trading account. You
are now on the next level. If your account falls below $1600
then you will go back to trading .2 lots.
Month 3: $1600 + (200 pips x .3 lots = $600) Total: $2200
You now start month three with $1600 and gain 200 pips profit
trading .3 lots. You now have $2200 in your trading account. You
are now on the next level. If your account falls below $2200
then you will go back to trading .3 lots.
Month 4: $2200 + (200 pips x .4 lots = $800) Total: $3000 You
now start month four with $2200 and gain 200 pips profit
trading
.4 lots. You now have $3000 in your trading account. You are now
on the next level. If your account falls below $3000 then you
will go back to trading .4 lots.
Month 5: $3000 + (200 pips x .5 lots = $1000) Total: $4000
You now start month four with $3000 and gain 200 pips profit
trading .5 lots. You now have $4000 in your trading account. You
are now on the next level. If your account falls below $4000
then you will go back to trading .5 lots.
RESULTS:
Month 6: $4000 + (200 pips x .6 lots = $1200) Total: $5200 Month
7: $5200 + (200 pips x .7 lots = $1400) Total: $6600 Month 8:
$6600 + (200 pips x .8 lots = $1600) Total: $8200 Month 9: $8200
+ (200 pips x .9 lots = $1800) Total: $10000 Month 10:$10,000 +
(200 pips x 1 lot = $2000) Total: $12000
Notice that gaining an average of 10 pips a day, along with
fixed ratio money management helps your equity grow
asymmetrically. Your $1000 turned into $12,000 in 10 months!
Notice that your trading system doesn't have to always hit a
home run, you simply need to average 10 pips/day in this
example.
If you wanted to be more conservative than the above example,
you could simply add more pips profit in the formula. For
example you could only increase number of lots traded after
gaining 400 pips instead of 200 pips like in my example. This
would mean slower growth. Try setting up a fixed ratio money
management plan before you start your next live trade!
This unique approach to day trading the EUR/USD involves using
financial Fractals and no other technical indicators, as
outlined in the Euro Fractal Trading System.
