【PR】Turn FX losses into gains using money management
A trading approach that emphasizes "money management," which is often neglected in FX.
This enables trading that is not swayed by win rates or methods.

This week I am in Tokyo.
Unlike Okinawa, the pollen in Tokyo is quite intense… (I wish I had shifted the timing a bit).
Also, this week I plan to go to Okinawa again.
Now, last week ended in a losing streak for "Weekly Trades You Can’t Tell Anyone About,"the effect of money managementhas been clearly felt, and this week's results are +1,989 pips.
Many of the widely available methods look only at the upside from zero, without regard to losses, so even a small drawdown can prevent continuing with the method.
Of course, I have experienced such times myself, so I understand it very well.
However, in reality, what matters most in continuing markets is a method that presumes losses. Since losses are inevitable, it is necessary to view how much you lose and how much you can win from a lower perspective (below zero).
And this time, the win was also a matter of chance.
I have no intention of bragging about having amazing trading skills. If I did that, I would become one of those people… (these days, more common in cryptocurrency).
People who traded with money management will likely recover quickly from this losing streak, and many have already surpassed 1,600 pips for the year.
However, this is still a road taken. There will be more ups and downs as the market continues. Do not assume that 1,600 pips in 3 months implies 6,400 pips in 12 months.
Stay calm when losing and stay calm when winning, and keep trading.
