Hedging to balance losing trade

emini_Holy_Grail · 2010-02-05T10:28:15-05:00

can someone help and explain how to do Hedging to save or breakeven a losing trade. I had loss this morning, but was very lucky and saved all loss due to opening gap, but just thought would have done hedging by entering a trade in counter trend direction so it will equal out though not profit. I hear people do this during choppy session like this morning.
