Why we don’t use Martingale/Grid – Trading Systems – 3 September 2023

Many traders like to use Martingale/Grid strategy, when the price drop , they increase position, sometimes double lost positions, so the floating negative P/L will be immediately reduced. 

They hope the price will go up soon, but is Martingale/Grid good to use ? I afraid not. 

you  will get very good P/L curve  using Martingale/Grid strategy most of the time, but you will always holding negative  position, when the market driving crazy, like the OIL future became zero,  

your whole balance will be broke.  

I suppose using  Martingale/Grid strategy is just like taking drugs, the increasing capital paralysis  the increasing risks of  the heavy nagative positons.  Just like a dangerous stair up to the sky,

there’s properly  they will drop one day. 

Martingale/Grid strategy also relative to the  greedy  of  human nature , people don’t want to lose even one  cent in the trade , but they’re facing the possibility of losing all of the money .  

Try to stay away of Martingale/Grid Strategies, keep your position volume small when you are not sure about the market movement.
