After 4 years of development and more than 3 years of real positive results and 8 months after the MT4 version, here comes its MT5 version! It has always been important for us that the strategies performed positively for the creator before it could be shared. Skin In The Game is essential to demonstrate the belief in the strategy and also to provide a continuous improvement of it.



Anyone who has been in this market for some time has certainly been there: You develop or acquire a strategy, which has been extensively tested, using methods of robustness, randomness, Walk Forward Analysis, etc., but right when it is applied to your account real it begins to face a difficult period, a long drawdown, a market for which it was not prepared. This may not mean that the strategy has stopped working, only that the market is in a difficult cycle for the strategy at the moment, however it affects the psychological of any person, as the different cycles of the market can last for months or more and it is difficult for anyone endure these long periods of loss. And meanwhile, another strategy or asset that is not part of your portfolio, ends up performing very well, leaving your psychological even more hurt for having chosen the wrong strategy for the moment.



So assuming that the market works in cycles and certain assets can perform better or worse than others during these cycles, we developed multiple strategies for night scalping and breakout trades, while applying a proprietary dynamic portfolio balancing algorithm, inspired by Kelly Criterion management, which automatically adds more weight to the winning pairs, while lessening the impact of losses by losing pairs in the period.



Therefore, according to the developed R Factor algorithm, the winning pairs grow in the portfolio independently, pulling more weight and responsibility over the global portfolio, thus increasing the potential current and future gains, while the losing pairs have their significance and impact on profits reduced. This of course tends to increase the volatility of the portfolio, however the potential profit that is achieved makes the equation much more favorable to take greater risks and consequently greater gains.
