What sets me apart from other traders is that I am not only concerned about the return on investment but how much risk I will have to tolerate to achieve my goals.

The truth can not be further removed. There are those in the investment world that think that there exist gurus who can grind out profits for them regardless of market conditions. The truth can not be [...] As I am reaching out to many FCMS and IBs showing my proprietary trading results for my emerging CTA, I had an email from an organization stating that they were looking for 15% CAROR with low draw downs. They would consider my trading if I fit that category. Attain capital interviewed me regarding my trend following story. Attain Capital called the piece “Taking the path Untraveled”. You can see the original article by clicking here Some of the numbers are flowing in. As the stock markets have been hitting investors in the pockets some Commodity trading advisors are showing positive numbers. How to make money in a downward market. This is not my opinion. Watch this video. I have never heard of him before but it makes sense. You make your mind up. Past Performance is not indicative of future performance |
