Basically, the Martingale technique will multiply Lot units (volume trading) under certain conditions, to achieve large profits in a position that is able to cover the total loss from previous losing positions.

The conditions for running the Martingale strategy can be described like this:

    1. If the position wins, keep the initial Lot amount.
    2. If the position is lost, multiply the number of lots in the next trading position.
    3. If the amount of margin that is insufficient is required, use all remaining Margins.
      Repeat steps 1 to 3 until the last position gets a profit, or until the account is unable to open a trading position    again

You really don't need complicated calculations to imagine how high the risk of Martingale is. Only by highlighting Lot's multiplication mechanism, can you imagine that the risk of Martingale's strategy is indeed high. However, increasing the number of lots is tantamount to increasing risk.
martiangle technique requires considerable capital so as not to avoid bankruptcy. however, if you are proficient and professional in using this technique, you will get a huge profit.

I don't know what a martiangel technique is, only I think that many open positions are not good for balance.

don't use the martingale strategy if you don't master it well.

I think martingale is a special strategy that is only used in certain conditions.

martingale is a wasteful margin strategy that is quite risky.

martingale is a 2-edged sword strategy if you can't control it, you will lose yourself.

this martingale technique if it is inexperienced is very dangerous, I used to use it often but the MC continued.

Before calculating the risk of Martingale, you need to know in advance how to calculate profit and loss in Forex trading. Basically, the Martingale technique will multiply Lot units (volume trading) under certain conditions, to achieve large profits in a position that is able to cover the total loss from previous losing positions.

if you want to use the martingale technique you should use a lot of capital because the martingle technique requires a lot of capital
yes I agree sir, because the strategy of martiagle can drain our margins. then you have to have a lot of capital.
