I agree 100% I think Oleg will start over again more than once or twice...
No, he won't.

I see what you mean. And what risks, in your opinion, are "normal" and what risks are "excessive"? Where is the border? (I explained my understanding of this question a couple of pages ago)

Without knowing the trading system, it is difficult to talk about optimal risks.

That's why we can speak in general terms.

Say in general, or use some common example.

In the current timeframe, the dynamics of gold don't meet my selection criteria, so I don't use it. But things are changing very fast. And if gold Will fit within the selection criteria, then I will use it. А this is el dorado ;))

Well, there are amateurs, not without that)

 
Empirically, the risk in each trade is no more than 2%. The optimum f is of course different for each TS, but for the vast majority the best choice is 2%.

Why didn't you mention leverage "for the vast majority"? Does the "vast majority" not care much about leverage, and in any case "for the vast majority" the "best choice would be 2%"???

Something you missed....

Pure pragmatism.

What difference does leverage make if I have a loss of 2% when the stop comes in ?

This parameter (% loss) is an unnecessary headache that does not allow the TS to work to its full potential. Now I am testing a variant: I put TP=SL on the basis of taking or losing 1% of the deposit daily, since I am working on TF D1. I am not sure if this is the case, but if it is, I will not be able to make it work at all.

Here... This is where the misunderstanding of the situation hides...

And the difference is very significant !

A leverage of 100 will cause a 2% loss in case of a counter-movement of X pips (e.g. X = 100pts).

With 200 leverage, a 2% loss will be fixed at X/2 pips counter (i.e. X/2 = 50 pts)

Do you think this is nonsense and makes no difference?
