Track Record · Testing my system live

You did not insert the only interesting metrics:
- What is your annualized sharpe ratio with 2 ticks slippage ?
- What is your average trade profit, excluding transaction cost ands lippage
- What is your max drawdown
- What is your annualized volatility
- How many markets

Yes! I will post the entire metrics in a monthly basis: sharpe, ulcer, sortino, MAE MFE,max drawdown etc
 
I post a couple of signals on my twitter feed, real time of course! I will work on automate this process of tweeting entries/exits so there will be <2secs delay, it also distracts me a little when there's action

Thx pal, however in this business, each and every trade needs to posted.

If not then atleast post the end of the week trade list from the account statements. Even then, questions regarding photoshopping and other documents doctoring will be raised.

May be posting each trade on twitter might help a little more.
 
Hi guys,

I finished my trading system last week and I'm manually testing it live. Will post weekly PnLs here. Will use this as my track record.

Realistic goal is to make 30%-50% a month, ideal goal 75%+ / month.

Details:
- Started with $12.500 account
- Makes 0-5 trades a day per instrument
- Commissions included -- ($0.95 (individual fees) + ~$2.5 (all in rates))
- 2-5 ticks slippage

Suppose 50% every month with seed of 12K, then
annually 128 times by 1.5^12 =129.7463.

Therefore after 10 years how much will your asset be?

PS) If there was any SINGLE traders in the world in the last 10 years, then you should be broke now as well as Buffet ad Gates. I am sure there was NO ONE like your potential record.

You clearly are still in the phase of obsession of the compounding forces.
If ever you get passed that stage and become a real trader you will understand how sutpid your continuous postings are about compounding, be the richest man on earth...
 
Okay guys here's quick update -- 3 day test:

I had a small bug, took me a couple of days to got it solved. All good now.

The first official trade was made on Apr 28 2017. You all can see charts with executions and LIVE calls on my twitter feed (@3dvg_). -- I do this so people don't think this is photoshop ;)

Just Crude oil futures for now and max size was 2 contracts.

Don't let them bait you into providing time and sales of individual signals as people just want to break the system and steal it away. As far as all the rest, better on monthly data cause like above sample size too low and traders will be able to see approx. risk/reward.

This is YOUR journal and not the members of the ET. I would just update once a month, people are going to believe what they want and it never enough. Let them do their own developing. If it is a good system, I would kill the Twitter feed, what you think might be helping others, will hurt your bottom line called slippage whether now or later. And if enough people break it, at some point it will start having massive drawdowns.
