That type of return is possible because Forex is the highest leveraged financial instrument in the world (up to 200 to 1 leverage in some countries). There is no other market where a successful trader can compound his profits that fast. Notice that he started with 2 and 3 lots (contracts) and now he is trading 50 to 100 lots and more, a typical anti-martingale, the only type of martingale that can produce spectacular results, if used correctly. ---

Why does it have C2 score of only 225 ??? ---

> [@TheForexSniper](#): > > That type of return is possible because Forex is the highest leveraged financial instrument in the world (up to 200 to 1 leverage in some countries). Yes, it’s true that traditionally retail forex brokers allow access to 100:1 (or even 200:1 leverage). But C2 allows only 33:1 leverage. ---

Technically, it is impossible to “blow up” a trading account when you trade big with your profits, and your profits only. ---

I couldn’t agree more, without proper risk control and money management (at the trade and portfolio level) you can turn a perfectly good trading system into a losing system in no time. ---

The strategy had no description yesterday, but has one now. The oldest review was from 11/19 - four days ago. I don’t know if that means it was private until recently or if the person was able to import trade history from somewhere. The returns are no doubt fantastic, but I am doubtful I would get results that are similar if I subscribed and remained subscribed for the next 2 years. Seems TGTBT. Has anyone been a subscriber for sometime and able to calm some of these concerns? I am surprised it isn’t on the leaderboard??? ---

> [@InteractiveAssets](#): > > I am surprised it isn’t on the leaderboard??? On the Grid ([Collective2](https://collective2.com/grid)) , if you select “Strategy age \>= 200 days” and “Annual return \>= 100%” this strategy is #1. (I am currently working on a Forex system that uses a similar anti-martingale approach, it should be ready on C2 in a few weeks.) ---

Have you been following the leader for a while? Were the previous strategies also not martingale? ---

One of the previous ones was Vinculum so I am unclear myself. I don’t know if the methods have changed or not. ---
