Despite the promising 4-week performance of v3 rules, nobody can be overjoyed with a target and stop that are so unbalanced. How could we improve r:r?
1. Push the target further out - risks fewer target hit trades, more expired +ve, potentially more losing trades.
2. Pull the stop in - risks more stopped out trades.
3. Increase net return by taking larger positions on lower risk entries - I have no idea which BB set-ups are more likely to be winners.
4. Reduce net risk by taking smaller positions on higher risk entries - Can't see which these are either.
Best I can think of right now is to push the target out 1pt and pull the stop in 1pt. This takes the r:r from 15pts:10pts, or 1.5:1, to 13pts:11pts, or 1.2:1, an improvement of 20%, translating into at least a 20% increase in net gain.
But the risk is that improved r:r leads to a reduced win rate, leading back to square one. I'm sticking with v3, with 15:10pts net stop and target but keeping the 13:11pts option in mind when reviewing results.
