Has anybody noticed this new feature that Currency Market brokers have been offering called hedging?? Basically they allow you to take two positions that are different and they call it a hedge.
I have he ar d many trader s s ay they pick their broker predied on whether they offer this feature. I've he ar d seasoned traders sing the praises of this attribute. I have even he ar d individuals feature their system' s s uccess for this attribute! I can't find one itty bitty reason to utilize this attribute. Two identically contrary positions is exactly the same as having no place whatsoever!! Hedging, in the traditional sense, is minimizing risk while minimizing profit to some lesser extent, also this attribute doesnt match that definition.
Please, someone, tell me what im missing here!
