Also, are you confident enough to increase/optimize your leverage?


Yes. I don't really believe in universal systems.
Or at least - find them too slow.
Or too hard and confusing to maintain.

Anyhow - requires totally different basis, principles, mental model than what I got.

Was thinking about twin trading another pair but scratched idea.
Somehow I fail to see point in trading multiple assets unless that's a core of your competitive advantage (e.g. triangular trading system or whatever it's called).

When it comes to leverage - systems can flop real fast.

My current money management is a total trash.
(advice? literature suggestions?)

Code
Lots = max(floor_amount, Balance * .75)


Depending on price, guess that's around 2x leverage or something. Maybe not. Who cares.

What's important:
- it has good enough potential to skyrocket ($100 -> $6689891 in 7 months sounds alright)
- it's tested and can survive about 2-3 real shitty weeks and still come back
- it's stupidly simple hence predictable and controllable

Gut feels max lev it *might* survive is about 8x (with a splendid launch)

x15 for degenerates
x20 for actual scalpers? maybe? perhaps?
x69 keif
x100 gambler's choice
x125 blink your eyes and it's gone
