I think a simulation of trades based on minimum funding requirement would be interesting!

Good luck!
This was already done, but the conclusion is: MDD is higher the smaller the acct is.
An acctsize of 600k seems ideal in many aspects.

Showing proof of a 5% MaxDD for returning 100% profits would be already absolutely outstanding! imo

This is possible, just need to find the right params:

$ ../periodpct1.exe 100 252 0
PeriodPct = 0.275437038

But, the question is: how big should the initial account size be?...
 
Huh?? Actual data not actual trading capital.
Oh sorry, you mean testing on a paper account using real data?
If someone can provide an API I can do it.
But the question is: how many days/weeks has it to run?
Isn't GBM much better?
 
Just 2 cents:

Perhaps open several simulation accounts with $100,000 each, from different brokers.

However, start trading only with $80,000 as initial capital size, setting aside $20,000 as FX.

More than a broker and API is too much work.
Best would be a testacct of size 600k at a brokerage house with an API.
But as said: how many days/weeks to trade?
 
What's the maximum days for a trade? 8 days ? 10 days? Perhaps a distribution chart would be useful.

When a system can make decisions every 30-second, that means many of 30-second trade is possible.

I would think the maximum days for a trade must be very large, in order to produce an average 5 days per trade.

Ok, here's the results of a 6th run, together with the distribution of the trade durations:
Code:
Profit in 1 year                    1012.00%
Avg Monthly Rate of Return (ROR):     22.23%
Avg Weekly Rate of Return:             4.90%
Avg Daily Rate of Return:              0.96%
Highest Daily Gain of AV:             18.49%
Highest Daily Loss of AV:             -3.63%
Max Drawdown of AV:                  -10.38%
Code:
Trade durations in days:
