| | Hello,
I've configured (today) AutoTrading for $80,000 and see in my IB Paper account > $100,000.
Are there some configuration tricks in TB?
I thought scaling should be applied before sending orders to broker....
Thanks for info,
Pranas |

Hi,
The dollar amount entered in C2 is used to calculate the only number that matters: the scaling factor.
Yours is 33% and C2 correctly scaled the AEM 1000 order to 330 shares.
You can reduce this scaling factor if you find it is too high.

Francis,
Thank your for checking actual signals received from C2 and scaling factor applied.
The number of shares bought (I that see in my IB Portfolio) are EAM 2310. The #2310 EAM shares is far more greater comparing to #330. There should be some problem in whole chain C2 => TB => IB.
I guess it is related to my misconfiguration of TB (not C2) and/or some bug in TB.
Are there some ideas?
Thanks,
Pranas
P.S. I'd like cleanup all issues in 2 weeks trial period. Your support during trial period is VERY appreciated! |

Thanks Francis,
We've figured out and got additional info, that problem mentioned is not related to TB functionality. It depends on the way how leverage is used by signal provider.
Thank you! |

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.
