No surprises, almost 50% drawdown

He usually doesn't hold more than 20-24 contracts. But actively manage position waiting for favorable price move. He adds 2 contracts per step to help subs scale the system 50% for smaller accounts. :) This guy is really attentive to his subs. :)

I just took free trial to check out what is going on since May 19 (his last trade). Open trades are hidden for non-subs. :)

Just switch to IB commission scheme, he is +100% with 71% drawdown. :) Drawdown shown on the system page is calculated using Typical commissions, so math exercise need to be done to calculate 71%.

These pictures/reports came from interactive brokers. :) they call it portfolio analysis.

Usually it is opposite - high leverage leads to high returns. Temporary returns sometimes. Anyway, this Futures Cat leverage is around 7-15 now, and it was around 20-30 in April. How that numbers can be considered as low? PS in my terms Leverage = Open Position Size / Traders Capital Maybe...

How do you think - will it survive longer than 2-3 months? His previous strategies lasted couple months only, then he was just stopping trading due to unclear reason.

Maybe you want to check out collective2. It will not give you a million you are looking for, but you'll get verified trading record and (if you'll be lucky to show good numbers) paid subscribers.

Although I have only 2 posts here, I know how the real Interactive Brokers account stats look like. I can say that for any account it looks around the same and blue line shows account. I didn't write anything about OP's trading, except my remark about that line, which is pretty known by anyone...

That blue line is marked with his Interactive Brokers account number. Not an instrument.

These are percents from initial capital size, am I correct? Roughly 4-8k $/month?
