  1. Re: Some Questions

     

    Leverage ratio isn't all that important..

    % risk per trade IS important.

     

    If you are risking only 2-5% per trade, it doesn't matter if you have 10:1 or 400:1 leverage at ur broker. That will only change how much money you have tied up in a trade.

  2. Re: Help with leverage

     

    Hello,

     

    I am newbie and just starting off. What I'm bit confused about is about leverage.

     

    My micro a/c is worth US$ 250. On any given trade, I'd be risking 4% of my a/c (= $10).

     

    How can I implement or take advantage of 1:5 or 1:10 or 1:100 leverage without affecting the overall risk of 4% on any given trade?

     

    Thank you

     

    let's say you had a 10 pip STop loss, so you are trading a $1/pip.

    $1/pip is a $10,000 trade on USD pairs

     

    if you leveraged at 40:1 you could trade $10,000 with $250.

     

    but you don't want 100% of your balance tied up in a trade and your broker won't let you..

    so go with 100:1 leverage and just keep using your risk % based upon SL and account balance.

  3. Re: How to get comments showing on MT4

     

    thanks tom, all the other code seems to be fine, but just error message on this part

     

    "\n\nEA suggestion: ", EAcomment

    );

    }

     

     

    'EAcomment'-variable not defined

     

     

     

    thanks

     

    Just add a semi colon after the EAComment and I think you'll be fine :-bd
