Recommend to trade for a living ?

(Above you mentioned you put a question mark at the end of the topic - so to that I would generally say no - below are ideas to take from where you are now forward)

1. Give yourself and initial account e.g. $50,000 and show the transactions and the daily balance.

Unfortunately, I have spent all money in developing this system and now I just prove it can works on demo account.


2. You could also try Topstep traders - see if you think their criteria would be met by your system - which it might not be as they are day-trade oriented. (This NOT a recommendation of them or an endorsement of them - just a second idea.)

It’s a swing trading strategy so not likely for day-trade.

3. If you have a friend who wants to learn - and has money to risk and a job - you could train that person and perhaps a few others in a class.

Good idea :thumbsup:

everything works until the sh!t hits the fan and it stops working, then it's all given back. Isn't momentum same as praying it keeps going in the predicted direction. No one knows when it stops and then it retraces all of a sudden until it's all given back. Many leg in, the average price is higher than when it started. The spike down is a lot shorter. Momentum trading is great for marketing courses and strategies but in reality it works some of the time like anything else.
 
It's NEVER about predicting, that's simply not possible to many variables, it's about Momentum and also advantage of how Retail traders on mass react badly.

Think back to all the trades where you just keep losing ( it's not Luck that's also not real, so rule that out ), what are you seeing/reacting badly to, then flip how you react on it's head.

I don't think you understand how on top of this idea all the quants are

High frequency traders actually have excellent handle on retail order flow

Almost everyone beats the simulator

Almost everyone beats simulators that are set up by firms that are trying to sell them something

Few go on to be winning traders

Would you provide a simulator to possible customers that beat their brains out?

Yes I understand. The website idea is for a demo account. i think people look for consistency of results. (*) You might only have the entry:
" no trades for today - looking to enter at 2060"
"current holdings :
3 contracts at 2070.50 average
mark-to market at yesterdays close $-635
Current account balance $52,065"
etc.

--- for the topstep trader you can still use your system but you must be flat at the Close so you would close out a little before the close and then reopen in the o/n session.
Your swing P&L might be about the same.

(*) For example, let's say I was retired and well-off and looking to put a little money on your system then I would want to see the trades all the trades and a brief note on why you took each one. So if you have a profitable long swing trade in the Trump rally, I don't have information on how you will do when the tide turns.

Swing trading apply for day trade is not easy as you think :D

simulators have no spread , so scammers can play a game
