Intraday martingale with futures

You add to strong intraday trends and only when all of your current positions are showing a profit. Either that or you go all-in / all-out. All other roads lead to greater odds of ruin.
 
If it goes against you and you can get a better average price ... why is it better not to do it?
Is not it really an advantage?
 
If you know the most likely intraday trend, does it work to use the martingale system? (only once, not all day)
Have they tried it?
It's a good idea?
Why are you day trading when you wrote numerous times that intraday is a non-sense?
 
Rule #1 in trading.... PROTECT CAPITAL!

Rule #2... "See Rule #1".

Martingale is the antithesis of Rule #1.

It has always been my philosophy... "If the market takes take my money, it's going to be like being 'nibbled to death by ducks'".
Excellent posting and primer on what's important in trading. Thank you qxr1011.
 
Logically...

The decision to apply martingale or not should be based on analysis of your trades:

If applying it yields a significant increase in profit (with a reasonable level of increased risk), then consider using it.
