Also, examine each trade individually. When you do so, you will discover that there are similarities between them.\u00a0 But that every trade also has its own set of characteristics. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These characteristics can be examined by using this loss. It is defined as the most intraday price movement against your position. In other words, it&#8217;s the lowest open equity during the lifespan of a trade.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This concept allows you to evaluate your systems&#8217; individual trades. Of course, in order to determine at what percentage amount or currency to place your protective stop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are two types of Excursions: Maximum Favorable Excursion (MFE) and the MAE Maximum Adverse Excursion (MAE).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The MFE marks the highest price during a long trade and the lowest price during a short trade. This shows you what the highest profit was during a trade.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The MAE is one of the metrics that is produced by most backtesting systems. It measures the largest loss suffered by a single trade while it is open. For example, a trade may end up closing at a profit of, say, 14 points. But while that trade was open, at one point, the trade was at a loss of 13 points. Assuming that no other trade was in such a losing position during the backtesting then this would be the MAE.<\/p>\n<h4><b>HOW TO USE<\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, if XYZ shares were bought for $500 each and the share has fallen to $400. The adverse excursion would be $100 or the degree to which the trade is \u201cout-of-the-money\u201d. A strict stop-loss strategy would prevent adverse excursion from becoming too large as a proportion of the original investment. The term is more commonly used in the derivatives market.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DEFINITION of Adverse Excursion Adverse Excursion is the loss attributable to price movement against the position in any one trade.
