Is this relevant? It's a small non-US firm
Quote from maildigger:
You developped an edge that makes you on average 2% each month by trading futures. Due to undercapitalization you start looking for a way to be able to trade it. You find a trader/firm who is interested to provide capital. Before you start they ask you to provide the rules of your system to backtest it themselves. Is this common? What would you do?
been there and done that. i won't go into all of the details but suffice it to say DON'T EVER REVEAL YOUR SYSTEM!!!!!!!!!!
Those that can't trade sell systems.
Those that can trade do so in silence.
Get a job as a futures broker and that way you can raise a book and use your strategy to trade your clients. if your system is any good you can go CTA with the firms backing. Alaron (who is a sponser here on ET) was famous back in the day for supporting their full service brokers and some of which went on to become famous tv analyst and personalities.
hope this helps.
