The opinions expressed in these forums do not represent those of C2, and any discussion of profit/loss
is not indicative of future performance or success.
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.
Despite the short lifespan of my strategies, they have proven to be quite stable.
Each subscriber was able to find the right strategy for his or her capital size.
Today I want to show you my new strategy: Funded Trader Money
The new strategy is very similar to the ‘Funded Trader MNQ’ in terms of position management.
Inside one trade there is an opening and closing of positions on a small MNQ futures.
It allows you to tolerate risk and make small profits all the time.
This means higher profitability potential.
I have established myself as a stable trader.
In any case, your subscription purchase costs can be recovered through profits in the strategy.
The limit on the number of subscribers is 10 (this is necessary for the fast execution of orders of all subscribers at close prices).
4 strategies under account, oldest is little bit more than 2 month old, 1 can be skipped since only organized today, 1 has approx zero income in a month with 15% drawdown. Previous attempt under different name failed.
I understand that some subscribers only look at the life of a strategy. This is a very clear indicator for them.
A strategy with a lifetime of 1 year and 20 completed trades looks “very stable”.
However, not everyone is like that.
Professional subscribers also look at the number of trades and the Sharpe Ratio (as well as other information).
The Sharpe Ratio is a very important indicator.
My Funded Trader strategy is ranked 4th on c2 and 1st among futures strategies.
The administration of the c2 service pays a lot of attention to develop tools that help subscribers choose strategies and model results.
However, most subscribers do not understand it and do not want to do it.
By the way, show us your strategy, let’s laugh together.
In finance, the Sharperatio (also known as the Sharpe index, the Sharpe measure, and the reward-to-variability ratio ) measures the performance of an investment (e.g., a security or portfolio) compared to a risk-free asset, after adjusting for its risk. It is defined as the difference between the returns of the investment and the risk-free return, divided by the standard deviation of the investment (i.e., its volatility).
You may want to do a study using C2 grid on how the sharpe ratio changes with the strategy age. The results are affected by survivorship bias, but even these optimistic numbers tell that it decreases and high sharpe ratio for the young strategies is a typical thing here at C2.
As of number of trades - sometime 20 trades over a year show quality of the strategy much better than 1000 trades per month. For example, your equity curve shows that something is changed in your strategy or in the market you trade in February compare to January. I expect smoothly growing equity curve from the strategy that trades often, otherwise there is no point to trade often. Make broker richer?
Just to let you know, there are trade leaders and subscribers here at C2. Trade leaders have trading signals (so called strategies) to sell and subscribers don’t have them. I am subscriber, so the only case you can laugh at me - if i subscribe to your 500$ strategy.
