maybe somebody could help me and show me the place where may I find some more information about "basket trading". Maybe somebody explained somewhere already this topic in the clear form.


Thanks in advance for Your support.

Loosely translated, 'basket' trading is this:
  • you take out trades over a number of different pairs. This is your 'basket' of trades.
  • the success or failure of individual trades within the basket is irrelevant.
  • all that matters is the success or failure of your basket of trades:
    • if you have more winners than losers then you can close out in profit.
    • if you end up with an overwhelming number of losers, then you have to close out at a loss.
Basket traders talk in terms of 'basket stop loss' and 'basket take profit' rather than applying those terms to individual trades.
