YM Magic!

I am glad for him if it was just a paper account.

He wouldn't last even a week if he tried to trade that way (upto 100:1 leverage) with a real money account.
Would have blown up ages ago by revenge trading as soon as he a hit his first losing streak.
Paper trading is a waste of time, gives the trader a false sense that they know what they are doing. That trading is easy.

He is still up 2.7%, unlike his subscribers.

If you download the CSV you can see what he did:

He is losing over $6,000 and the number of winning trades on the website is wrong(or the list you can download is wrong). It is not 82 but 72 winning trades. So not 48.2%, but 42.4% winning trades.
I did not calculate the drawdown as the losses are already so big that the size of the drawdown is already clearly much too big too.
He is smart to papertrade.
But the conclusion for me is: throw everything away and start over again.
 
He shouda let me motorhome over there to Dallas and watch over his shoulder. And see my uncle who just keeps living.

I guess the experiment is over.
TT1.... care to chime in here with some thoughts?
No shame in f'ing up once or twice.

The 'experiment' proved that you cant make 100% on demand every month, not without a very high risk of ruin.

If he had been a bit more sensible and targeted 10% per month, he might of had a chance of hitting or exceeding that. 15% a month compounded = 400% year.
