【PR】Turn FX losses into gains using money management
Trading techniques that emphasize money management, which is often neglected in FX.
You can trade without being swayed by win rates or methods.
▼1. Current status
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
“Everything becomes FX” moves between domestic and international locales about half of each month. I’d like to share where I am now, what I’m seeing, and who I’ve been meeting and working with domestically.

This week, I’m in Tokyo.
The first week of August saw ticket prices dip a bit, so I considered going out, but hotel accommodations were incredibly expensive…
In tourist destinations like Hokkaido and Okinawa, it’s common to pay 20,000–30,000 yen per night if you’re a bit ambitious. If you’re traveling for a special occasion, that might be fine, but as a regular place to stay, it felt a bit high (in this tier, off-season is around 10,000 yen).
As expected, prices rise when demand is high and fall when it’s low. I can’t miss riding this wave.
Well, this series is now entering its final month. It is planned to conclude with the August 19 issue (since it started on August 22).
And as the series ends, I’ve received emails from some rare readers, which is very gratifying.
There is no negative reason for ending (I’m not quitting FX), and I may pop up again at some opportunity. When that happens, the operating entity will most likely have changed.
Markets become volatile around employment data, etc. Coupled with short-term trading, trading in a larger trend via swing trading isn’t bad either.
Now, let’s do our best this week as well!

"Weekly trades you can’t tell anyone about" take positions with an edge from the 1-hour, daily, and weekly timeframes, based on trend. However, the core is not the trading itself but money management.
The win rate of this method is 50%. Because it feels like about 40% in "felt probability," anyone who cannot tolerate less than an 80% win rate probably cannot practice it. Conversely, those who can think long-term profits may find it useful.
