LEGALLY Hedge in a US Forex Account with TradingView

[@TradingHeroes]

Watch my beginner's guide to hedging here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5-1eHSGfdWtqNE Watch all of my hedging videos here: kzbin.info/aero/PLOn0-_K-aYvRtCAS-wm9VuUw4ozdIS8kF

Recently found hedging only to find it was mostly banned in the US, this video is a god send, thank you.

[@TradingHeroes]

You're welcome!

[@Zunoh]

Hey are you now hedging in your trades?

[@RedWaver]

Great coverage, thank you for this. When you realize all markets are mostly random and have a 50/50 chance of going up or down barring any news releases, and the most efficient way to be profitable as a retail trader is by hedging, it makes perfect sense why hedging is "banned" in the US lol

[@TradingHeroes]

You're welcome. Yup, like when certain stocks suddenly get delisted. But once you understand what's going on, it's easier to create a plan.

[@DYMABASE]

The FIFO loophole blew my mind 😳

[@ToddBeal]

Exactly what I was looking for. Well-explained, and thanks.

[@TradingHeroes]

Glad it helped!

[@ericmiller7749]

you could also have 2 different broker accounts then you get around the rules. I dont hedge yet but it seems like it makes sense.

[@TradingHeroes]

Yes, but it's a pain because it's harder to transfer money between accounts.

[@philippbraun1773]

Great video! How do you close positions partially? When I hit the x on my TV account the position closes completely

[@TradingHeroes]

Thanks. Might depend on the broker you're using. Contact TV support to get details. I only use Oanda.

[@Pato-rt1vh]

If you want to add to a trade, do you also do the same with the sub-account? I've noticed that when I add to my trade, it just gets combined instead of being separate.

[@TradingHeroes]

Yes, I use the same sub account. If your broker is 'smushing' positions together, find another broker.

[@caedons9109]

Great video Hugh. Question: Is it possible to just open the initial position at 999 nano-lots, start a second trade at 1000 and close the second trade immediately since it's not the same lot size as the first? Also, does this FIFO rule apply to your hedge in the sub account if i trade the same lot size? (For example, I short 1000 nanos in sub acc 1 and go long of 1000 in sub acc 2). Thank you greatly in advance.

[@TradingHeroes]

Thanks. 1. Yes. 2. No, the lot sizes only matter in the same account.

[@KathySteve]

Wow, exactly what I needed to find out. Do you offer a 1-on1? I need help setting up my accounts, funding them and getting a good quick opening tutorial, live.

[@TradingHeroes]

I will be soon, still working with existing students: tradingheroes.com/zen8

[@anthonymccomick5815]

great video bro! been looking for a way to do this

[@TradingHeroes]

Happy it helped!

[@byronmaddison1570]

Hey mate! I have a question? Do you know of any Prop firms that support hedging? I love the idea but I still want to trade with prop firm $$

[@TradingHeroes]

Many do.

[@keletsoMatlalaBouy]

Which reliable broker that u knw of dat allows hedging bro with a micro account?

[@KathySteve]

Hi Hugh. How can you view your Buy and Sell "sub accounts" in Tradingview on the same chart?

[@TradingHeroes]

Hi, you can't. That's why you have to flip back and forth.

[@lotus.4811]

I followed the tutorial, but unfortunately there is no option for me to be able to make another sub account with USD currency. Oddly enough, it will allow me to make 2 sub accounts with other currencies like CAD. Am i the only one?

[@TradingHeroes]

You create the sub accounts at your broker, not in TradingView.

[@lotus.4811]

@@TradingHeroes yes, this was from the Oanda hub

[@TradingHeroes]

OK, contact Oanda, I don't know what's going on there.

[@gidafenba]

Thank you!

[@TradingHeroes]

You're welcome!

[@darkcruzan]

Are they any prop firms that have sub accounts like oanda?

[@TradingHeroes]

You'll have to ask around. I don't keep close track of prop firms. I know that many allow hedging, so in those cases, you don't need sub accounts.
