So, traditionally, a trader adjust the local business time with these high activity hours and
make his/her trades. This is a good and acceptable approach but there is another approach
that is best fitted to our own system.
In this approach, no matter it is 2 AM or 2 PM, when all trading factors (according to the
system) are OK, that is the best time to trade. For example, as a full time day trader, you
check AUD/USD trading factors at 9 PM your local time. If you see that all the factors are OK,
so this is a trading opportunity and you can do it. So, in this approach the best trading time
is determined by the system not by the local business hours or activity of the market. You
as a full time day trader just need to check major currencies two or three times a day to find
perfect trading opportunities.
To make this clear here I explain a typical trading day. You wake up and check all major
currencies to find trading opportunities (such a check normally takes about 30 minutes). In
this check you will face three situations. 1- You may find one or two trading opportunities,
so you place your trades. 2- You do not find any tradable opportunity at all, so you leave
your internet device and come back a few hours later to check again. 3- You find some
forming trading opportunities but that is not the time to trade, so you predict the best
trading time (according to the trade parameters), leave your computer and then come back
in the specific time to trade. Working with six major currencies this way, you should
normally find 2-4 trading opportunites each day.
Optimal Trading
During the time, as you trade according to the system, you will find that all the trading
opportunities do not perform the same. Some of the opportunities are nearly perfect (with
a very high chance of winning) and some of them are less accurate. So, it seems a good idea
that we choose our investment lot size according to the winning probability (or earning
2. potential) of the trade. For instance, if you always risk 5% of your balance on each trade, if
you come across a very accurate three factor trading situation (according to the system),
this is the time to enter such a trade with 10% of your balance.
The idea of optimal trading is simply adjusting your investment lot size to the estimated
accuracy of a trade. Doing this adjustment, you will get closer to the full earning potential of
the system.
