Raising money is easy. I tell you how to do it. You can raise more than 10 million in a year. Start with your friends and parents and ,.... and raise say 100K and then impress them with your magical return. They will be a good source to advertise you and I am sure people will beg you to manage their money in months. If you are not right and blow up in the first step, you will only blow up your parents and friends money.
It is the lowest watermark for all managed money returns, yield on the 3 month tbill. This a risk free rate of return. Gotta thow in the greeks when comparing your returns to see if your level of risk is acceptable. If you can't benchmark, you won't raise a wooden nickel much less $10 mil.
ok and what a about an automated system that averages 20% per year over ten years where the maximum drawdown was 16%?
They do a lot of automated trading, at least the automated trading didn't make enough. I am sure they back-tested a lot of data, the problem for back testing (backward-forward) is the selection process itself is curve fitting in a sense . Result? As soon as you put real money on the table, your system fails. So it's important to show real money. -Show me the money.
Those cars are money traps. bigtime. If your gonna buy such a bucket, make sure that it came from an aged widow that had it garaged, regularly serviced and was lightly used. For 8K, you could go to one of those lease swapping sites and pick up a newer entry lux mobile possibly with a warranty. If your gonna buy at that level, consider a Toyata Landcruiser. Also, designer knockoff duds can be had for cheap on Ebay nowadays. Good luck.
Ok yes of course...but i'm asking...if an automated system could produce those kinds of numbers with real money...would it be attractive? Also...Lizard...why go on ebay for 'designer' goods when you can cut out the middle man... http://www.ecplaza.net/ http://www.tradekey.com/ type whatever designer thing you want into the 'search suppliers' box ; )
Very cool... I'll check it out. There isn't an active street vendor scene in my small town. I got a Rolex from Korea. It's amazing how technology can replicate a reliable knockoff for low dollar.
