The point is during the crash, no one's account grew, but my account shrunk far less than anyone elses I knew because my DCA was so defensive. I even got away with DCAing coins only once or twice that were as low as -25 to -40% and they sold at my gain of 8% and they trailed up to sell high. In fact my account in the last 3 weeks has grown by nearly 20% despite cashing out most of my profits on both my Binance and Bittrex acount. My strategy is strong on defence and attack.
I have my gain set at 7% at the moment and I still get sales, but not as frequent as during Nov, Dec of course. Some days very few, some days a handful, the markets are gradually returning now, and I have done a few 1.5% and 2% days recently, but not every day.
I am willing to hold my coins for any amount of time, because I am playing a different game to most people, most guys have crap settings because they haven't traded much manually nor do they understand how prices move, or have much technical analysis knowledge unlike me. The way PT trades for me is very close to how I trade in real life.
I have 20 pairs on my ETH Binance account, 18 pairs on my BTC Binance account and 12 pairs on my BTRX account.
First off all thank you for sharing so much information with us. I am using PT for some time now and I did not manager to get the same results as you have around that period. I did have good results thoo but not that good :-) So well done on that!
Second I am just wondering, the period you have tested the most of your settings is a extreem bullish period. In my opinion this would be easier to get beter results. For me a strategie is only good when it survives even the most bearish market. How are your results in feb and march? Is that something you are willing to share? Because in my opinion you might have DCA'ed a bit more. My final question is you have min profit and trailing set very high. Above the 5%. When I look at the markets today +5% is very hard in some cases. How long do you hold your coins in this market? And how many pairs are you plaing with?What are you sell numbers in pairs per day? average.
I am just having a hard time believing that these numbers could still be achieved today in a normal time frame. Not doubting your expirence or anything. Do not see this in any negative way but I am just curios.
Hope you can give some more insite in the current state of the tactic.
