Dangerous strategy with a Martingale example

This was a very good post for using the C2 Explorer to graphically show how much leverage is being used by a system. You have to copy and past the code into the C2 Explorer and change the list of systems at the top to the systems you are interested in, but this takes just a minute.

The risky martingale systems show up very large multiples on these charts.

If you are unaware the C2 Explorer is here:

Click on the “My Queries” tab, paste the code from the above post into the box (change the systems to what you care about), then click the “Run” button and scroll down for the results. Go through the top systems putting them in that code and see their leverage multiples… you might be surprised at how many systems get pretty crazy.
