Quote from marky1:
The point people are trying to make is that the difference between demo and live is huge. You obviously don't take that into account but the point is until you trade for real your returns on paper are irrelvant. Your results mean nothing to me because they are not real, and they mean nothing to any serious investor. Tell me something, and not looking for an argument here but I really want to understand what is going on in your head. If you are a great trader you obviously have made some cash. Take say $2,000,000 of your money and trade it for a year in fx. If you still are making 40 or 50% then do it another year but put in another $2,000,000 so you have now say a $5,000,000 pot. Do the same again and then you start your fund because you have proven, real, live trading results. By put up or shut up this is what I mean (it's a british saying by the way after an X PM) I don't mean your imaginary trading, I mean do it with real cash. Then come back to me and I will eat humble pie. At the moment you are living in a fantasy trading world.
and my point to you is a demo is the
same as real.
If you doubt that, download an Oanda demo (who I know quotes real-time market prices) who gives you 20:1 margin and use your system on it.
If your system is any good, it will work on an Oanda forex demo.
If it is not,
your account will be destroyed.
I worked my @$$ off for 5-months trading that demo account using my systems that I developed over 1000s of hours live currency trading both in my live and demo accounts, and you say to discredit it 100%?
You're insane!
Now, on the rest of your points about having a functioning hedge fund already working with my own money ($1m to $5m) in it, trading it for a number of years or even a year, yes, those are the numbers investors are concerned about - that I agree with.
you asked for proof, and I didn't have a HF to show you (it's illegal to post results from a HF publically anyway). and I am not gonna post anything from my live private account for a message board troll - so I posted the next best thing - real (not imaginary) returns from a
forex trading account - net 29% in 5-mos.
Those numbers CRUSH any and all common market benchmarks.
I have already said I can do it with a live account with real money since the systems being traded in that model are not emotion-based.
otherwise, the discussion is ended, as you've already proved what a jerk you are to everyone on this forum and I have no desire to disrupt ET anymore by replying to your asinine posts.
Baron, please take note of this.
