  3. for every dollar risked, make .20 cents. but my stops are super tight, so need to put up 500 to risk a dollar, which makes leverage imperative.

  6. you may simulate on collective2, then you can get subscriptions and the result is more realistic than pure back test.

    Never mind, i forgot those are backtest results.

    Why don't you connect your account to sites like forexfactory or smth and let it run there live. There's a nice overview of all the metrics and trade counts etc. Let's see how it goes there.

    999/1000 traders who claim they have super strategies are found fake at the end.
    So instead of calling prop firms "scams", the trader who claims a super strategy sound a lot more like a scam.
    There are a lot of people going for prop firms, there none going for an anonymous trader who claims a super strategy.
    People are not stupid.

    If you have a super strategy work 3 jobs, save money and ignore everybody. Then trade.
