    Great trade! I see you are trading your own account and not prop account, would you mind talking about your risk approach? How big should your account size be in order to be trading 25 contracts safely? Thank you!

    • @BigGuy_Trades
      @BigGuy_Trades 3 дня назад

      I plan on doing a full video on this, but my math for what size to trade is based on the Kelly Criterion. You can find a calculator online that will tell how large you should trade based on your capital, win rates of your trades, and risk/reward ratio. Once you have the Kelly Optimal amount, most traders trade 1/4 or 1/2 of that. I trade on the larger side at 1/2. In theory the Kelly optimal amount will maximize your gains in the long run, but you also have to consider your emotions for handling drawdowns when trading that large, which is why I do 1/2.

      @@BigGuy_Trades Thank you, I would love a video on that topic. It´s still kind of theoretic for me, I tried the Kelly calculator. I am currently trading 1 micro MES for every 1000 Dollar of Account size. With 10.000 Dollar you would be able to trade 10 MES or 1 ES Contract. I think this might be pretty conservative. But to trade 25 ES Contracts like you do, this would need an account size of 250.000 Dollar...

      1:1 and negative rr is ok. According to the data from my trades, my best trades are when I risk 5 or 6 points to make 5 points. I think most traders starting out will do better with a positive rr. This allows them to lose less while they're learning.

    Is there a reason why you say you need a stop of say 20-30 points on ES? I understand the idea of putting your stop far away, and that’s what I do, but isn’t 20-30 points kind of like overkill. Kind of like putting a 60-90 point stop on nq?

      @BigGuy_Trades 25 дней назад

      @@mithunepanchalingam8112 Yes so the wide stop idea is specific to a strategy if you are trading very small and plan to scale in. You would rarely let that wide stop get hit. Instead you would get out before that once you determine your side is trapped and the market is going the other direction. If it’s still reasonable to hold your position then you would do that and the wide stop gives you room to scale in. But the critical piece of this is trading small enough so that that loss would be no larger than your other losses.

    He says there's no such thing as a profitable trader, then says 78% of them lose money. So the 22% doesn't exist? Trading is hard, and most people fail at it, but that's true of a lot of things. The reality is that trading is work, especially while you're learning, and most people who get into it are just looking for an easy way out of the grind, or a quick moonshot. They think it's easy and jump in during a bull market, then get crushed when things dry up. If you weighted success rates by how many people actually take it seriously, the success rate would be a little higher.

    Crazy thing is that LT/Qualified Div. capital gains are not taxed at their low income level, so they have to get their income up to capture the losses! If they get their taxable income, AGI, up over something like 94K (married joint) , then they should open brokerage account and buy something like CEFs that pay substantial LT/ST capital gains, thus they will be able to capture the losses. Leave the trading to the folks that have the inside info.!
