Taking the profit before it's gone

I had it twice, that I was 40€ in profit and then I was 40€ in a loss. I'd wish that I would have taken or could take the profit before it's gone because it hurts a bit to observe that a winning position is turning into a losing position.

Is there a way to do that without negatively influencing the algorithm? Should I drag the panic slider until the position is closed? But all positions would be influenced by it.

Or do I need to get used to the "set and forget" philosophy? I mean statistically, the outcome will be positive. Maybe I am observing it too much and should let it go?

How are you handling it my fellow Zorro fans? :-)

This is a frequent situation. The Z systems do lock profit, but only extreme profits, not 40 Eur. More aggressive locking reduces statistically the end result. So yes, fire and forget.

Haha. Alright!

I've had the same issue. There's a balance of about 1-2 times a day of checking to make sure nothing crazy has happened that I've found works for me. I might revert to once a week once I am confident there aren't any issues. I've been running live for about a month now.

Alright. Thanks. Me too. For about a month.

Do you use the Capital slider to reinvest?

Yes, but at the moment there is not much to reinvest! haha

Hey man.
Would you mind telling us which strategy and assets are you using for that real account? I could use more info like balance amount, win rate, performance and thinks like that
Thanks.

A former poster made their z12 account available for tracking.

looks like the party's over in that one

Hi jcl, how about 400+ dollars (40%+ of my account)?
From 04-21 to 04-29, Z12 successfully generated 40%+ FP(about 10 positions). But on last Friday(04-30), most FP was gone. And now (Monday Asia session), only 4% profit left(6 positions).
In this case is it reasonable to drag the Pannic Slider? Or can you tell us on what level Z12 will lock profit?
