I can see how that can work if you're picking good stocks that keep going up. Most people can understand that and ride the little ups and downs in a trend.
I been saying that since post number 5 on this thread. The high win rate and RR but low Sharpe (which gives a measure of equity curve smoothness) just doesn't add up. It would seem the system produces winning and losing streaks in longer than expected lengths for a 60% win rate system. This is very strange and suspicious.
@Prospergain raising capital is really hard. There’s literally a thousand systems touting returns like yours with real money for years and audited returns. I could call my private banker right now and get 100 pitchbooks of very profitable strategies all trading real money in the millions/billions of dollars for years. how do you differentiate yourself? How will you market yourself? and don’t you say “my returns are so extraordinary” because rich people know that sustainable extraordinary returns require a real edge in infrastructure or information. Or the strategy isn’t scalable that it’s worth their time to put into their investment portfolio.
He made nothing for 8 months. Either the sample size is three contracts lifetime or it's fake. You can't win on 6/10 trades at 3:2 net and post this string of small losses.
That's why marketing the returns is really important. He will need to explain why he has months of negative returns and why his strategy is different. Nassim Taleb is obviously able to explain away the months of negative returns in his Universa Investments fund, since he is buying deep out of the money options and gambling on severe market dislocations.
If the stops are tight and/or it only trades fast markets like NFP and news events it is probably not very scalable. It's the kind of thing you just trade for your own account. Although I think small traders can definitely do better than a 1.07 Sharpe.
I doubt he is actually using that much even if it's available to him. That would be trading $500 per pip on a $10000 account. A 20 pip loss and the account is gone.
