Went live on 7/6/2009 with 1x or 100% scale. My plan is to trade the system for 6 months ending in late Dec 2009, followed by an evaluation and decision to continue in 2010. My Stop: I have set a system stop at -$5,000 from my initial investment. This means that on 7/6/2009 the cash value of the C2 account is at $32,612 and I will stop trading the system if the C2 account drops to $27,612. I do not include commission/subscription charges in the stop calculation. OEC commission per round trip trade is $9.19. Trading Method: OpenECry with Gen3 autotrading, I plan to take the signals as they are presented without adding any additional stops or money management. Increasing the Scale: Should the system gain $10,000 from 7/6/2009 (a C2 balance of $42,612), I will increase the scale to 200%, otherwise I will stay at 100%. July 2009, start $32,612($9,588) end $34,763($11,402) = $2,151($1,814) Aug 2009, start $34,763(11,402) end $34,516($11,193) = $-247($-209) Sept 2009, start $34,516($11,193) end $33,453($9,962) = $-1,063($-1,231) Oct 2009, start $33.453($9,962) end $xx,xxx($xx,xxx) = $x,xxx($x,xxx) Nov 2009 Dec 2009 Comments from July; the difference between C2 and real was partly slippage on the first trade, partly commission of -$200, and 1 case where I second guessed the signal and lost $115 as a result. Otherwise, first month was good with good returns. In total with subscription fee I had a gain of $1685 for July and an overall gain of $1685. Comments from August; the big issue was related to a C2 error that resulted in an order being hung. In the end I had to close it myself on Sunday and had an open position for 2 days or so. At the time I was not using the C2 AutoSync feature by choice, after that incident I turned it on figuring any AutoSync fill loss would pail in comparison to having an open position for several days. The system was difficult to trade in August because of many profits turning into losses. I second guessed one and made a small extra profit. The open order issue also resulted in a small extra profit. As a result the C2 loss without commission was -$247 and my real loss with commission was -$209. If we add the subscription fee, I have a loss of -$338 for August and an overall gain of $1347. Comments from September; OpenECry error for the last three trades of Sept resulted in me not trading. As it turned out, this resulted in about a complete neutral gain after commission, so the numbers for the month were not effected. In this case, I elected to try and correct the problem with OEC, which took 3days to resolve, without trying to manually trade the signal. For Sept, the C2 loss without commission was -$1,063 and my real loss with commission (total -$202) was -$1,231. If we add the subscription fee, I have a loss of –$1,360 for September and an overall loss of -$13.
