Obviously, it all comes down to your own account size: if you have big enough capital and are successful enough, so you can confidently earn your...
What's so stupid about that? :) yeah, i figured it was a long time ago. Things have changed quite a bit. So has trading.
The same way you are jumping into conclusions here? I was just asking. And as you see, even you "just needed a good starting capital"...so you...
hmm, that's pretty interesting...I'll think about that.
Is that how you all calculate returns? Do you even know what Sharpe is? I have a tendency of talking nonsense, i know. So, i won't get deeper...
That's nice and all, but...you don't. Market has an "upside ceiling" on alpha. The fact that someone thinks it's possible tells a lot about that...
I'm not talking about most, i'm talking about this specific example. Most traders can't trade anyway. If you make 200% with 20x lev, means you're...
Interesting. So, you're returns are not noticed by your broker? Why, tho? This information is always exploited. Either someone trades before you...

THAT sentence, ladies and gentelmen, pretty much concludes everything: 1) high Sharpe 2) non correlated to market 3) total return beating SP500...
it's not so much about time as it is about trade count. Time is different for different traders. Some make 1M trades during a year, some make...
Maybe. Anyways, thanks for being nice about the whole way. Don't get a lot of that in social media. Well, things sometimes need to get...
what asset? Stock indexes? SP500?
Yep, should :) But 99,99% can't.
Your example is a perfect pass to that exam. Your draw (assuming that you didn't have a higher open DD any time at that period) is very well...
doesn't matter if they play the margin game or the demo game. The idea is that theoretically you have 100k account with a -3% open draw limit....
they are accepting DD. Isn't it -4% for the 50k account and -3% for the 100k account? I'm looking at Topstep page. I believe Earn2Trade has smth...
