Is this the same volente_00?

Just to be fair to volente_00, I've started tracking my trades at Collective2 as well. Over at http://www.collective2.com/go/raystonn you will be able to see my equity curve and statistics develop over time. Trades become visible three days after they are closed. I am not looking for subscribers here. This system is new to Collective2, and thus has no publicly verifiable track record. This is just meant to be an example of how a trading system should be managed.

Keep it up. If you bring this or any other thread down you and your posts will be deleted, stick to the subject. Or this thread will be deleted and you will be banned.
That goes for both of you.

I don't really care, Something to ponder, when I ran it to 180k, it was done using a 20 lot, which with $500 margins means I took a 10k account to 180k in less than 30 days. The lesson the chart tells is if you don't use stops in your system, you will lose in the end.


Hey Volente, you've come a long way from your PMCS days. Could you please PM me your broker. I need to scale up on the number of cars I trade intraday and do not wish to tie up anymore capital than I have to.
 
Do you think it is really hard to make or lose 100k when 3- 4 mil worth of ES is being traded on every trade ? Feel free to backtest the trades using the 2 -3 point stop that the description of the system says to use and let us know the results. Since it is countertrend, once the stops were removed it got killed on 5 separate trades on trend days for over 155k in losses. Would someone really actually let a 30 lot run intraday 38 points against them and close it at a 58k loss ? I make no excuse for the performance of the system. It is actually a valuable tool that shows the importance of risk management when trading an instrument with 140 to 1 leverage.

Yes, someone who was trying to make alot of money very quickly to prove whatever. Someone who did not believe the market could run 2-3% in a single direction and kept their bets on to recoup.

The system was started for a contest. It was my intent to take 100k to 1 mill in 12 months. The c2 system does not work well with my trading. The system lags and often shuts down leaving you stuck in a trade.

:eek: :eek:

Someone like you ! :D
 
Hey zapper, I actually got the idea from you good friend thornybird. It seemed he never traded with stops when shorting the S&P at 1140,1200, 1240, 1300, 1328, 1350, 1400, 1430 and 1440. It's not my fault you envy me after I made 80% in 30 days.
