Leverage.... No options anymore as they literally blew 2 accounts up(or lost all my profit) despite being correct on index movement.
Options are too risky and therefore I do not implement them anymore.
Only 10 future contracts on each mini instrument. 4 total or 40 contracts total at one time depending on the strength of signal generated.
10 rut contracts overnight carry cost 35k
10 YM contracts cost 24k
10 ES contracts around 34k
10 NQ contracts roughly 32k
so you can see I am leveraged rather high but never ever full margin used. There is no compounding...so..if account was at $200,000 cash...I would only use original formula and be leveraged around 120-130k...
its important to stay constant. to build equity ,reduce leverage and have no more then 15% drawdowns ....
It is not unusual for this system to double its value in one month..especially its first month as clearly can be seen from previous systems. Its 5-6 months later that remains the problem and I am continually backtesting and configuring system to not let this happen again. (not using options help)

What is the C2 Score?
Collective2 rates every trading advisor in its database and assigns a score between 100 and 1000.
In general, a rating above 500 is good. A rating above 700 is excellent.
Collective2 Ratings are recalculated daily based on the entire performance history in our database. The exact formula we use is proprietary, but there are several key variables that go into the Collective2 Rating. One of the most important factors is the length of time we have been able to observe the performance of the trader. Another key factor is the amount by which the trader over-performs or under-performs the S&P 500 index. Finally, the choppiness of the trader's results is taken into account. Certainly a more consistent trader will be rated more highly than a trader with erratic results.
