FXRenew’s Scale-In-Simple Algorithm Be quick and easy to use. Trade small at first. Capture profits. Only use the market’s money to build a larger position. Keep your monthly risk within defined limits (Typically no more than a 3% maximum loss per month). Have the flexibility to trade larger sizes based on the quality of the trade and the confidence level that the trader has in the position.

Scale-In-Simple Algorithm: Objectives Designed to work in harmony with FXRenew’s London Open Signals Targets 5% return per month, with limited downside (3%) and unlimited upside. Teaches you how to risk a set % of your account per trade. Allows for up to 6 trades at a time Targets 8-20 trade opportunities per month Usually Swing Trades, but also allows for short-term forays

FXRenew’s Scale-In-Simple Algorithm

Scale-In-Simple Algorithm: Tips & Tricks For short-term trades, your standard position size can rise to 3 units. For long-term trades your standard position size remains 1 unit (looking to scale-in to 10 units eventually). If you have profits locked in for the month you can increase your position size. Using the above example, if you lock in $200 of profits you may add into the spreadsheet that you are now willing to risk $400 ($300 initial risk plus ½ of your accumulated profits). You would now have a maximum position size of $40,000. Therefore your new unit size would be $4000 or 0.4% of your account. •You need to take into consideration your stop-loss distance when deciding on your position size. If you require more than a 100 pip stop you may need to trade a smaller size. Try not to risk more than 1% of your account on any one trade at a time. If you are close to your maximum loss for the month, you may want to trade a smaller size, so that you don’t hit your maximum loss. It’s important to stay in the game.

Scale-In-Simple Algorithm: Drawdown Rules If you hit your MaxDD (3%) but still wish to continue trading for the month, cut in half your position size and risk another 1.5% of your account. In total, you will be risking 4.5% to make 5% on your initial capital during the month.

I Have Reached My 5% Target: Now What? Keep Trading as normal Cut your position size in half to protect your gains Risk ½ your profits and swing for the fences Stop trading for the month.

Scale-In-Simple Algo: Additional Notes When you first start out, consider cutting your trade size by 50% for the first month in order to accumulate a profit and limit losses. If you have profits from the previous month, you can start by trading a larger size. Be Consistent! Don’t break the rules!
