Prediction Based Trading

I've been reading the reviews on Collective2 and apparently, there's a way to hide losses: as long as you don't close the trade it won't show the loss until closed. It won't show the metrics associated either because it delays showing completed trades. You have to look at the reviews on each particular strategy to see if someone is trying to play games. However, many strategies don't have any reviews at all.

I miscommunicated, the statement was referring to the name you chose for your strategy - ‘Invincible Holy Grail’

Again, I’m not criticizing the merits just the last-nite get-rich-quick infomercial sound of it.

Yes, I did that on purpose. The stats don't lie (hopefully). I'll let the performance do the talking.

Again, you misunderstand and/or misstate.

The graph of the strategy will update in almost real time to show loses, including open positions.

Now here's where I think you've again, drawn a very wrong conclusion, and potentially mislead others:

Earlier you said you can't see past trades on C2. I corrected you.

And in that list of past trades, you won't see open trades. Why?

Because no one would pay to subscribe for your system if they could simply watch your list of open and closed trades. Again: The list of trades doesn't include open trades.

Additionally, a strategy manager can delay the posting of their closed trades. Why?

One example: If a strategy manager only trades one instrument, long and short; and is always in the market, then they too would not get subscribers, but all one would have to do is watch their list of closed trades: when they close out the long, they know to go short.

C2 has been around for a long time. That wouldn't be the case if it were scammy, or if people could hide losses.

A strategy that could hide losses would attract all sorts of subscribers. Then ... guess what would happen if the strategy kept showing high wins, but this performance wasn't being replicated within all of those subscriber's accounts?

Going forward, you'll have to tag me for advice; and I'll charge it to your tab. :)

Okay, I'll just try doing it before I say anything else. I just read in the reviews what some people were saying. I'll get a few of them and screenshot to make sure. But C2 itself has gotten some bad reviews, although some of them were when it was old.

Probably best. I'd be shocked if C2 doesn't frequent this site, and see all the wonderful things being said about them, by people they can identify because they posted a link to their C2 strategy. :)

But nothing wrong with reading negative reviews, then researching for yourself, then asking about it. You probably want to avoid making negative assertions, when you aren't reasonably certain that they are true.

So what you're saying is ... that you've dug and unearth some bad reviews ... on a company ... that has been in business for two decades.

I'll keep that in mind. :)
 
Once the trades are publicly shown after the delay, I think I'll put them in the spreadsheet as well. Might not be a point to it after C2 but people like visuals.

Here's a trade for ya...
Short APO pre-market here at $52+
Double down at $53.50
Hold until Wednesday.
Or it might just hit $49 today.

That happened quicker than I thought.
It just hit $50.

I had read the news about them acquiring Athene in an all stock deal right when it came out at 7am.
I knew it would pull back. ATH (Athene) will stay up however.

Because C2 doesn't support my broker, I have to input the trades myself with their web platform. I'll check it out with my trading account but the C2 will reflect only ancient technique based system trades. May the Almighty help us in making money so that we can give it to poor people.
 
Yay! Placed my first C2 trade just now. Shorted TWTR at 68.55 and covered at 67.71 for a +1.2% profit. The account had 50k and 48k was used on the short (700 shares). I did not want to use the additional buying power. Looking at the spreadsheet, TWTR does well. Might have held longer but getting used to the controls yet.
 
There was a BABA trade that wasn't taken on the HoD. Did not want to be too short on the market due to possible correlation, particularly in such volatile conditions.
