Hypothetical Trading Data as of August 5th 2008

 

Disclaimer: Past performance posted by Signal and Systems Providers (“Providers”), is not necessarily indicative of future results. No representation is made that any account is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particularly trading program. The composite monthly results are primarily hypothetical results of the master demo and its representation of the Providers, though performance results displayed may represent a combination of live and hypothetical results and are not exclusive to either. There are numerous other factors related to markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program that cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results. In the event that specific trades were simultaneously executed in hypothetical and live, real-time trading, the lesser of the two results will be displayed. There is no guarantee that one applying these methodologies would have the same results as the hypothetically posted. Since trading successfully depends on many elements including but not limited to a trading methodology and a trader's own psychology, the web site does not make any representation whatsoever that the above mentioned trading systems might be or are suitable or that they would be profitable for you. Please realize the risk with any investment and consult investment professionals before proceeding. The trading systems herein described have been developed for sophisticated traders who fully understand the nature and the scope of the risks that are associated with trading. Should you decide to trade any or all of these systems' signals, it is your decision .

Tips for Building Your Portfolio

We believe by pursuing strict requirements for a trading strategy, you can keep the number of trades low, which reduces spread and commission fees, without effecting the overall performance of your portfolio. When selecting strategies for your portfolio, here's a few things to consider:

1. Average Profit per Trade: We feel this is one of the quickest and easiest ways of spotting the best overall trading strategies. If a strategy has a high average profit per trade, this not only means it has been profitable in the past, but we believe it means that it's able to make back losses more quickly than strategies with a lower average profit per trade. But be cautious as there will be some strategies that rise to the top of the list for having a high "Average Profit per Trade" when they have had only a few trades. A low number of trades can generate a very biased reading. In general, we feel the more trades a system has had in the past, the more accurately this average will reflect what you could expect over the long-term. 

2. Profit Factor: In our experience, strategies with a high average profit per trade usually have a high profit factor as well. This value is the profit generated by profitable trades divided by the losses generated by losing trades. A value of 2 would indicate that twice as much money was made from winning trades than was lost from losing trades. Higher values generally indicate that the strategy has a higher probability of being profitable in the future. In our view, strategies with a profit factor of 1.5 or higher are considered ideal.

3. Profit vs. Max Draw Down: The Max Draw down is an important statistic but only when compared to the amount of total profit the strategy has made. In our view, strategies with a high profit factor will usually have a very good profit to max draw down ratio so looking at the Profit Factor alone is a quick way of finding strategies that have small Max Draw Downs relative to total profit. Viewing a strategies equity curve in the Portfolio Builder section of the AutoTrader platform will give you a good visual of the Max Draw Down to Profit ratio.

But the techniques for selecting strategies for your portfolio don't stop here. When you sign up for your FREE 30-Day Demo, you'll receive access to our backroom website where you'll learn even more tips for choosing strategies for your portfolio.

Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as lack of liquidity. Hypothetical trading programs in general are benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. Substantial risk is involved.
Forex trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risk. You must be aware of the risks and be willing to accept them in order to invest in the Forex markets.
