Successful only 1 out of the 4 attempts cause 1, 3 and 4 have wrong entry prior cross. Finished in red cause I changed size during the trades. #1 with 5 shares, #2 with 3
n.3 with 10 and n.4 with 5
-0.26$/share with 5 shares= -1.30$
+0.50$/share with 3 shares= +1.50$ instead of +2.5$ if I would have used 5 shares and could be better if I didn't add so soon. Add only if the price miss a retest against you and don't close any half until it goes against you after 1:1 Risk/Profit ratio
-0.13$/share with 10 shares= -1.30$ instead of -0.65$ with 5 shares
-0.15/share with 5 shares= -0.75$
Total= about -1.80$ while with the same size would be = -0.85$
With the same size I would have lost only 0.85$ that is 0.17$/share
Even trading bad if you respect rules in the end it will benefit you. This strategy might work. I have only to take care that entries are not in the middle of the 2 lines cause I can get caught easily and the distance between the eMA and VWAP has to be less then my stop loss thus tight. Also a certain volatility is required to apply the strategy unless once then with less volatility you aim for a lower profit ratio closing break even the position once on your favor. But this will be reviewed then later. Now there is a lot of volatility in the market.
