Rep Power: 0Burtakus is an unknown quantity at this point
For example:

My open position are:

S EURUSD
L GBPJPY

I am close to entry signals in:

L USDJPY
S AUDUSD

Now if I enter the L USDJPY and S AUDUSD that puts at 3% risk on a long USD because the three USD are generally correlated to a decent degree.

So my delimma is: Should I enter the L USDJPY and the S AUDUSD if I get those signals?

I would hesitate and probably not enter becase that would put my USD risk at 3% and overall risk at 4%. But by not entering if I get those signals means that I am not following my system.
