No, my trading style (not scalping) isn't a good fit for the Combine. I am interested because I think it can help a lot of people in areas that almost everyone usually avoids (discipline and risk). I am glad to bring these topics to the surface and help them gain attention, because I think they are critically important to a traders success.
I would much rather spend my time on TST threads than on indicator or methodology threads.
@Hoag
I've got one question regarding the 'cushion size':
Does the amount of 30k apply to ALL account sizes ?
What I'm trying to say is, if I get funded with a 50k account, do I need to build the same cushion size of 30k to get the advantage of an 80/20 split or will this be relativized to an amount of 10k (cause it's only a third of a 150k account) ?
Yes, the 15k and 30k levels apply to all account sizes. Once that profit level is reached, your split improves and you do not need to maintain that balance.
@Hoag, or anyone else, could you please explain why the stats are calculated this way, taking the overall average of each trading day, rather the overall average of all trades? Isn't this inaccurate for an overall view of all trades? Just trying to understand.
