  1. You won't get a single sub at that price point unless you're running something like 3x risk. No chance.

    Why? What is your logic? Why 3x?

    It's not hard to manipulate your results on collective 2.

    I don't agree with your observation. Otherwise, feel free to explain how you manipulate your results on collective 2?

  5. The lag is a detriment. You can't front-run a move. If you have "100% marketable" rating then you're not using their fill-algo and it's a legit system. The only gaming would result from trading illiquid markets.

  6. thanks for the feedback.

    3x risk is the bare minimum for any trade i will do.

    i aim for at least 4x, 5x and even 10x more often than not.

  7. No offense, but nobody trades anything less on this forum.

  8. 3x risk is believed to be enough to let your winners outpace your losers that are stopped out.

    i can go as low as 2.5x in a non directional setup, but compress the risk well above 3x after the first target get's hit.

    Well, for one thing, you can keep running until you have a big hit, then you can just shut down and start a new system.

    It's not hard to do something that works for a long time, and then one trade can wipe you out.
