Educational Forex Portfolio

At the beginning of 2023, I created a forex real account with $2100 for educational purposes. From a statistical point of view, a trader invests $2000 on average. This trading account aims to educate traders on how to trade risk. That is, not to trade the price of the currency asset, but how to control the risk through better management. The account will be published every Monday and I will comment on the changes made in terms of risk. The trading strategy is medium-term, using technical analysis with weekly charts. The portfolio risk this week increased slightly to 18.09 from 17.84. The assets in the portfolio decreased slightly by 176 pips, (an average of 35 pips/day) last week. It's not something to be scared of, but need to pay close attention to the risk. Most of the time trading mistakes are made on an emotional basis to try to increase the risk in order to recover as quickly as possible. Many traders lose money in the fight for recovery, ignoring the importance of risk.

As can be seen, there were no big movements in the portfolio. However, the risk increased to 17.84% from 16.16%. The portfolio is stable. This is what matters. Volatile movements with day trading do not offer stability or constant profit in the long term. I do not expect major movements this week. Remains to be seen.

Last week was a quiet week for the portfolio but I closed two positions, Nvidia stock short with 599 pips and USD/CAD short with 43 pips.(642 pips) and I added a EUR/CAD long. The risk decreased by 0.6% to 16.16% from 16.76%. So, the portfolio is even safer in any market environment. Even if the portfolio shows that there are minus 2150 pips, last week with closed positions of 642 pips, the portfolio has recovered 221 pips with a lower risk. It remains to be seen how it moves this week after the risk fell even more.

Last week, the portfolio decreased by 734 pips, but I closed positions in profit by 358 pips. The portfolio decreased net by 376 pips. I reduced the portfolio risk to 16.76% from 20.12%, closing two long USD/JPY positions and two long AUD/JPY positions and opening a short USD/CHF position and a short USD/CAD position. In April, I have no intention of increasing the risk again. I think there is a waiting period or a decrease in risk. Until the P/L loss decreases, I will not increase the risk of the portfolio. We'll see what happens this week.

I analyze the portfolio only from the point of view of risk. The analysis is not based on predictions. I do not make predictions. Nobody knows the future. Depending on the movements of the market and the portfolio, we change the risk every week, if necessary. In the last week, the portfolio decreased by 388 pips, but I also made a profit (135 pips long EUR.CAD). Considering the movements in the financial markets. I can say that the portfolio looks stable. Which means that the risk is well controlled. For this week, I increased the risk to 20.12%, buying USD/CAD once again. I have two long USD/CAD positions. Closing a long EURCAD position, I have 3 short positions left. For this week, I expect the portfolio to increase in value and reduce the risk for next week. Remains to be seen.

Depending on the movements of the market and the portfolio, we change the risk every week, if necessary. Last week I had a risk of 14.94% of the portfolio. in my opinion, a portfolio has a high risk if it grows above 25%. A medium risk is 10-20%. A low risk is below 10%. This week, this portfolio has a medium risk. I increased the risk after adding two long positions (USD/CHF; USDCAD). I decided to increase the risk of the portfolio after in the last week, the portfolio recovered 784 pips ( 157 pips daily in 5 trading sessions). For the next week I have two options: to keep the same risk or to reduce the risk. To keep the same risk, the portfolio should recover from the remaining negative positions. In order to reduce the risk, the positions in the portfolio should lose more. Remains to be seen.
