You feeling like it’s generally a worthwhile pursuit? Any reason you aren’t just trading your own money?

 

So if I’m understanding this properly, you had to reset a few times along your way here.

 

Worthwhile: Yes.
I believe this is a great bet.
The less you spend the more worthwhile.

I don’t have much money.
That’s why I am trying to get 10K out of TST.

Otherwise if you have the money,
Then trade on your own. MES at least.

 

I wish you success. They advertise trading up to 15 contracts. Are they referring to MES or ES?

 

15 contracts is for the 150k account.
And you can’t trade MES. Micro contracts.

They have a special account for micros.

Which is a shame.
Because with current volatility,
Or just to hold overnight ... Would be great.

You have 3K daily risk limit,
With 15 contracts it’s 4 points ...

 

Wow. So they give you 2% drawdown and you have to trade the ES. That’s a good challenge.

 

Indeed.

You have 3K daily risk limit,
With 15 contracts it’s 4 ES points ...

 

Although I don’t system trade, because i do not code and thus had no way to monitor my progress, I did appreciate the lesson in pyramiding I got from it. Essentially what Livermore did 90 years ago.

 

You can monitor with a spreadsheet. Nope ?
Guess this is the right way to trade.

When the market is favorable,
Then be agressive.

Have had you success with pyramiding ?
Is it worth the risk ? Worse average price ?
