The “Slash” FTT strategy – technical requirements

The indicator direction of the strategy, the speed and cyclical nature of the trading signals, as well as the rules of money management of the trading system, all put forward a specific list of technical and trading requirements for the brokerage platform in order to provide for consistently profitable trading. For correct operation of the system, we need the following:

The minimum trading conditions for compliance with the rules of money management

Money management

Taking into account the trading conditions and the level of risk of the trading system signals, it is necessary to strictly follow the rules of money management. The first thing that comes to the forefront is the optimal ratio of the volume of trading positions to the sum of operating capital. The safest trading regime is the use of contracts with the initial value. After building up the funds in your trading account, the risk level can be raised to the bar of 3% of the amount of operating capital.
