It's called "first-loss basis" and it's a fair deal imo. Only these who don't know how to trade or manage money have a issue with it.
20yrs working on it but still looking for money to be sent to an offshore broker, but it's a regulated offshore broker... and the trader is stuck in an unknown country where futures are not allowed so it has to be all traded otc with cfd's. What's not to like.
And all the money he has made has been put back into the system so that he has no skin in the game. To me that translates into the system hasn't made any real money!!
What is the issue if trader and investor put down equal amount of money and share profits and losses equally? Why would anyone have issue with that? The most fair deal of all.
No issue at all but when the trader with no track record to speak of wants the investor to take all the risk, you'd like to see them have a little skin in the game.
traders are always looking to improve, i think. but you must improve from a already solid method. else i don't think you're a trader you're a researcher. this make sense?
Fair comment — I get it, this space is flooded with people making big claims and sounding like experts after reading a PDF. The difference is, I’ve spent 20 years actually trading, not talking about trading. If I sound like a “newbie” to you because I’m not overhyping or tossing around buzzwords, that’s fine by me. The markets don’t care how slick you sound — only what’s in your P&L and risk profile. But hey, appreciate you keeping the forum spicy.
What do you trade and how and what are your Returns. Bedazzle us. I want to see the Holy Grail working its divine powers of money market creation. It's Easter...the time of miracles. Yeah, God..is Good.
Funny how some of you act like I just stumbled in here reading a PDF and chasing pipe dreams. I’ve spent "risk" 20 years of my life risking my own money, time to build a system that works. And no — I’m not here begging for charity. I’m here because my country’s laws ban individuals from trading CFDs at scale. If that wasn’t the case, I wouldn’t even be in this thread. I’d be trading my own seven figures and cashing out quietly while you lot argue over who has the better RSI settings. So for the “why not 50/50 risk?” crowd — think it through. If I could legally drop my own $500k into a CFD account, I would. And I wouldn’t need to listen to weekend traders tell me what’s fair. This isn’t a sob story. It’s a straight-up business proposal. You’re either sharp enough to see the opportunity, or you’re not. Either way, I’ll still be trading.
