There is a substantial risk of loss in trading. You should therefore carefully consider
whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. You should read,
understand, and consider the Risk Disclosure Statement that is provided by your broker
before you consider trading. Most people who trade lose money.
I have done a lot of work on my mistakes. This is more from the field of psychology. Bugs have been fixed. The system has become more reliable and stable. During this time, I have optimized my system, leaving only the best algorithms there and optimized risk management. I believe in my system.
Attention! Depending on your risk preferences, after subscribing to the system, I definitely recommend setting a risk limit of no more than 10-15-20%. This is a must!

Internet trading experience since 2006. Manual trading system, based on the use of advanced mathematical algorithms that generate accurate entry and exit signals, as well as on the analysis of intraday bulletins of currency futures of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME Group). Trading is carried out both on the trend and on reversals, on currency pairs GBPUSD, EURUSD, AUDUSD, USDJPY, USDCAD, USDCHF. Each trade is protected by a stop loss. Not martingale. The plan and goal for the future is to open my own hedge fund.
Attention! To be honest, this is not my first profile here. I had great periods here when the number of paid subscribers was about 100, and the amount under management was about 7 million US dollars (this is the period from February 2018 to July 2019). In 2018, a profit of 88% was shown, but then 95% of clients left due to a profit of 16% per year!!! From experience, I can say that low drawdowns and moderate profits (10-25% per year) are of little interest to anyone here, and when you start showing such a result, 80-90 percent of clients leave. Strategies with high profits are very popular, which subsequently lead to large drawdowns. This is a pattern and a vicious circle. The more profit, the greater the drawdown awaits you in the future. Thatâs why I started using my system with aggressive risks, which led to a series of failures.
From November 2021 to October 2022, I had the ARK system here, until May 2022 there was a stable increase in clients, excellent results for six months, profit over 250%, the number of paid subscribers is just over 100, funds are 15 million USD. Then I started trading more conservatively (less risky) and the number of subscribers decreased by 9 times in 3 months!!! I started trading again, but more aggressively and this eventually led to a mistake, there was a big drawdown when selling USD / JPY due to high leverage, the idea was correct to sell 145-147-150 take profit 135-133 -131, but very poor execution led to a loss. I am the only one to blame for this and there is no excuse for this.
In 2024, at the moment, my M8888 system managed to show excellent results of 420% with a maximum drawdown of 42%. But the bet on aggressive trading eventually led to a large drawdown. It was obvious and a matter of time. Now there is a profit of 230% with a drawdown of 70%. I understand that such results are of no interest to anyone. An adequate balance of risk and profit is needed.

Looks like his systems depends on âHold & Hopeâ a bit too much for these current markets (dont try to âHopeâ during MADNESS). I understand the temptation of 80%+ Win Rates but they usually cost high-drawdowns (which is more painful for me). I would be surprised if you couldnt backtest this strategy and shave the DD down quite a bit. It might lower your hit rate into the 60%'s but would also lower the DD.
Youâve been creating similar systems to this for a while. Is this the âoptimalâ setup that youâve researched? (it only works with this much DD?)
Michael, what does that even mean? What is a Maximum Allowable Drawdown? What is a Minimum Level? It vaguely sounds like Oh, I (as a Subscriber) can set the amount of drawdown I can live with by investing in ARK LR at this Minimum Level, but thatâs not true, of course. So what are these values, please explain.
ok, thanks. so theyâre more like guidelines, or aspirational statistics. I get it now. Itâs what I thought, which perhaps is just about all anyone can give. But calling it âmaximum allowable drawdownâ seemed to imply more, like super strict stops set on every trade, or something like that, although adding the âper monthâ was also weird⌠what in the world would âdrawdown per monthâ be anyway? So itâs all nonsense and high hopes. Good luck sir, to you and your subscribers.
