<\/span>General strategy of MarSe<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The name MarSe was derived from the names of two trading strategies – Martingale <\/a>and Surfing<\/a>. The Surfing strategy has been created by Victor Borishpolets for daily trading on Forex<\/a> and the stock market. The system is based on the RSI<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main feature of this strategy is that it can be used without deep knowledge of the market, such as how large banks and market players work, where they accumulate their positions, how macroeconomic processes flow etc. Its main task is to catch strong and continuous movements in the trend. The strategy uses such indicators<\/a> as the RSI<\/a>, Envelopes and Moving Average<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best trading period is the time from the start of the European session till the start of the America one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking about the MarSe advisor, it has the following algorithm built in: the analytical module determines he direction of the trend, then the market situation is analyzed at the crossing of the previous candlestick with the Moving Average<\/a> indicator (MA). False entrance signals<\/a> are eliminated by the RSI and MA; then a pending order<\/a> is made. If it triggers and the positions opens but the price does not reach the expected level of Take Profit (TP) <\/a>and makes a reversal, the Martingale<\/a> model launches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martingale principle in trading works as follows: if a trader enters a bargain with 1% of the deposit and it results in a loss by a Stop Loss (SL)<\/a>, the next operation will take 2% of the deposit, then 4% and so on in the geometric progression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An important feature of the Martingale in the MarSe is the function of increasing the step for opening each new level of the series of orders. Each time the step and the volume of the bargain increases. This model is often called Stretching. For example, the second bargain opens 50 pips away from the previous one, the third – 100 pips away, the fourth – 200 pips away, and so on. Such approach makes the work of the advisor more stable but might stretch the time before closing the bargain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another feature of the MarSe is using of an additional money management<\/a> pattern by Larry Williams. That very Williams who took part in the famous year contest of traders Robins World Cup Trading Championship in 1987 and won it, having turned 10,000 USD into more than 1,100,000 USD in 12 months’ time. This record has not been renewed though 30 years have passed. I suppose, ideas of such trader are worth taking into consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Money management by Larry Williams<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A set of rules of operating one’s assets, i.e. money management<\/a>, is meant for avoiding too risky decisions. The model in question can be characterized the following way: “The volume of the lot will equal the equity (free money on the account left for the robot to manage) multiplied by the risk coefficient that the trader specified”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
