Agreed.  Getting smaller after each loss is a safer (and more
profitable) money management strategy.  There are several good books
on the subject, including:

Portfolio Management Formulas by Ralph Vince
The Mathematics of Money Management by Ralph Vince
Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom by Van Tharp

Hi,
You are just about to make one of the worst mistakes in trading imho -
that of doubling down ! 
You will get away with it a few times and feel pretty confident but
when it doesn't work out as will be the case it will eat a large hole
in your capital ! Accept this advice of an old trader and save
yourself a blown up account   
regards
Pat

Hi all,

I am backtesting a system where whenever i go wrong ( i.e.  if the
trade results in a loss) i double the size of the bet.

So i need to modify the entry size under the Buy order / sell order
tab, i tried using Simulation.CurrentPositionPerformance, and
Simulation.CurrentPositionSize which resulted in an error.

Can someone please help in that. 

Thanks.
