it never enters all at once. its is VERY staggered. i've attached a chart that i used to sequence things. it shows the # of trades on at any given time. again, the same 6 month period -funky

oh, and all i have to say is, intraday trading blows. what a waste that was. i did manage to make my brokers wealthier though. :)

here's the system (the same 6 month period) with 32.5k, my measly wad. notice the efficiency has dropped off because of the commissions. ;)

nickel, yeah i have thought about that. but why make other people rich? :)

here is some eye candy :) this is for $174k capital (exactly the amount it takes to raise the average share/trade to 100), using 2x margin (348k). its for the last 6 months. this is with liberal slippage #'s. ;)

the system is fully backtested, and has been tested live for slippage. i have over 2 months of slippage #'s, so it is very precise. the only thing that hasn't been tested live is the 20 share lot fills. but i'm thinking that slippage resulting from 20 lots fills would be less than slippage...

i've actually calculated that I need around 200k capital (with 2x margin @400k) to get to 100 shares / trade. that would keep commissions at the normal .01 / trade. so i guess i'm not too far off!! i am probably going to just trade it with my capital for now, just to gather more data (even...

yeah, was thinking that. the only problem with that route is that they are gonna want a %. thanks...

i appreciate the humor, but on this thread i'm actually serious. -funky

I have just recently finished developing and testing a system that requires at least $1 mil USD capital, and I want to run it on Tradestation. How do I go about obtaining this capital? I looked at some of the pro firms that let you use their capital, but they seem to require that you use their...

yeah, just call me jack. :cool:

do you have the shackles on the other wall? :D

yeah, you should see it when the bridge is let down... :eek:

heh, i'm trying to improve my view though...this will be my view in august :) (we're building a new house) this view is a little more useful :D
