Roll-off is mind-blowing. Gradually offsetting the losses by winning trades is not as high risk as martingale hedge but also replaces the traditional stop loss order which may often stop you out. Thanks for introducing this concept.

[@TradingHeroes]

Glad it opened your mind.

[@FrancescoMaisano-qc8xx]

Interesting that you bring up the roll-off - I've been using a version of this for some time to keep putting realised profits in my pocket while shrinking the losing position down, hardly see anyone taking advantage. Been a game-changer for me.

[@TradingHeroes]

Best kept secret in Forex 😀

Awesome video! I do want to question about the misconception.. In your example you just use the fixed buy and sell button of the software.. But if you have a P/L order with RR 2:1 it could work fine.. Since if both entries get triggered and price goes one direction, you lose the losing trade, but the other trade could still result 1:1 RR profit.. o.0.. I do like the idea of your wild hedging theory, but for many peeps having no stop loss can get messy very quick, especially since your examples do not show any solid strategy backup for entries, just wild firing the market as it goes..

HI Hugh, Just wanted to understand based on your past experience, is Gold XAUUSD Pair suitable for Hedging ? ( partial close and roll off method,) ? . Kindly advise .I tried to backtest the strategy but it does not go well, due to its high movement in one direction.

[@TradingHeroes]

Hi, gold is not good because the swap is too high. See what I mean here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6vagKOCe5uiaNE

[@lilykandarani1607]

Hello Hugh I am from Indonesia. Just wondering how high USD can strengthen against IDR. Do you have any view? Why is it strengthen so much recently? Thanks Hugh

[@TradingHeroes]

Hi, I don't know and nobody outside of maybe a handful of people in the world know why currencies move. I just trade the price action, I don't need to know the reasons. Hope you're doing well.

[@Khal721]

Hi Hugh, Do you make 5% a week with your drawdown still running? or is it after going flat?

[@TradingHeroes]

Hi, after going flat.

Hi Hugh, I ам looking for more information exactly about hedging. I found your videos very helpful. I like to hedge, I have success sometimes, but sometimes everything can get very messy if we open too many orders. Right now I have a specific situation with the EUR/USD. I placed 2 short orders 0.04 lots each last week 1.0726 and 1.0772. I managed to have again long on and short profitable positions and gained almost 5% this week. The sentiment was that the price would probably go south again and retest the 1.07 area. This is why I decided to leave my short positions open. However, on Friday the price moved below 1.08 after the news and got back above the area. Now my question is how properly I can manage this situation. My account is enough to wait another week and even if the price goes to 1.09 or 1.10 I will be still fine, but not happy :) I can open at least 4-6 orders with the same lot size for now. I saw the option for partial close in your video which seems like a very good idea in my case to start closing 0.1 or 0.2 lots from my losing trades while I am collecting some profits from my other trades. I know the question is pretty specific. Any advice would be appreciated.

[@TradingHeroes]

Hi, thanks for watching. It's up to you to figure out what works for you and what doesn't. I can give some general ideas and strategies in these videos, but you have to find out how you want to approach hedging. The best way to do this is to use a simulator so you can get a lot of practice in a short amount of time: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jarSg3esiMh2n68

[@the_resource_corner]

Interesting strategy. Curious, though, what if your broker doesn't allow you to change lot sizes during a trade? Didn't even know you could do that since MT4/5 doesn't allow it...

[@TradingHeroes]

You can change lot sizes. If your broker doesn't allow it then change brokers.

[@NfakArchives]

Can you do hedging in prop firm challenges?

[@TradingHeroes]

Depends on the prop firm. Most I've seen allow it.

[@Mrcastleskeep]

I'm in a bad spot on a trade. An EA martinagaled me into 12 lots and I'm down a bunch. Very hopeful it bounces and goes back up when markets open again in 2 days but I'm afraid of it dropping a lot more and losing my ass. Should I do a sell stop of the same size below a recent support? Just so I can stop the bleeding? I desperately want to scale out of this trade.

[@TradingHeroes]

I don't give advice on specific positions, you need to have a plan going in.

[@anaghsoman4085]

Isnt this pretty much the same as closing out your trade at SL, then taking a new entry above/below and realizing the profits from that entry?...

[@TradingHeroes]

No, you can potentially make money in both directions with a hedge.

[@richardcalcagno6706]

You would think doing this could easily make u 3-4% a day right?

[@TradingHeroes]

No
