Let us remember that 50% of building a system is thinking about the goals (from "The Psychology of Magicians")
Advice from the author who trained many traders (Van K. Sarp).
“Remember that 50% of system building is thinking about the goals.”
Yesterday I realized that my own goals were vague.
And… I remembered.
When I had just learned FX,“To turn 100,000 yen into 100 million with compounding”was my goal!
Whether it is realistic or not, I don’t know. It might be a dream.
Whether FX companies will allow withdrawals is also unclear (laugh).
The single-position EA “Seven-Color USDJPY” started selling in October 2021.
I tested this EA again with backtesting.
With compounding.
◇ Period: October 1, 2021 – to the most recent
◇ Spread: 1.5 pips
◇ Concept of compounding: It is the idea of what percent of the account balance to use as the lot size.
As the balance increases, the lot size also increases accordingly.
At 20% compounding, there are times when profits reach around 50 million yen, but
Maximum drawdown (DD) is 97%…
It’s almost despair… it seems mental collapse is inevitable.
No, I may not endure that much… if it drops by 50%, I might withdraw (laugh).
However, even if there is a holy grail, DD will surely visit it too!
I am convinced of that.
Everyone, what goals or dreams do you have for your EA?
I would be happy to receive your messages.
Until next time.
