the minimum winning days on customized combine for TST is 45%.a trend follower at the best possible way make be profitable at 30 to 35% of days and lose a little during those 70% rest of time

 

that's a big time ,it may take up to a half year

 

OK. I dont know the bands. I just asked if it was indeed customizable. Have you tried pleading your case to them?

 

yes, but they said it's the minimum that they can agree on.

 

Well then it seems TST is not your fit if your hit rate is lower than that. Why try and put that round peg in a square hole?

 

it's my only chance , please look at my location name.trading in other ways is a big impossible

 

CT, I think you might make some changes to your plan.
I did make changes. I think it worth to make further research and also to open mind to not only trend following but failures too. You know, trends do happen less often than failures to continue in certain direction. why not to have plan a,b and c ?

 

i'm able to reach at least twice of profit target with all parameters except percentage of winning days.my trading system looks for opportunity days which they occur not frequently.i'm so happy and confident with that system which i spent lot of time on it
i will speak again with TST to see if i can convince them or not

 

I understand the math behind the plan you are trading.
I actually asked before for less % of winning days and TST gave me 45% .most probably TST will not come below 45%. it is what i got then when asking for 40%.
You can make some changes to your plan and return to original one once you get funded.

 

yes,anyway that's a good news you were only a few points away from profit target.they did not accept that as a completed combine ?
