Traders' Roundtable

I agree, the US dollar seems to be the biggest trender as of late - it rises, the EUR falls, and so goes the GBP, CHF, and to a lesser extent, the JPY...but with a trading system with a reasonable win/loss ratio and return ratio, a system trading correlated markets should still be pretty profitable ...

Well, when you lose in EUR/USD you may also lose in other USD pairs, resulting a large drawdown. That is bad. In this way you are taking too high a risk.
You should not only concern how much money you make, but also how much risk have you taken to make that money. Otherwise you won't survive long ...

We are unable to get a diversified portfolio.
When EUR/USD is dropping, all of the other pairs are all doing the same.
Anyone could figure out a good portfolio in which any of the pairs are least corelated?
