Thanks.
Part of it is forward testing and part of it is real money.
However since i started forward testing with 5 contracts i kept using the same amount of contracts (and added 2 for each 15k profit) for my example above.
Live trading was with 1 contracts since i do not have enough money to get this system to its full potential.

However now i am also starting to deploy the system to NQ, GC and ES.
First results are looking good, this would also give me the opportunity to take a combine with TST for example.
Or maybe some of the people i know are interested in partnering up with me and i can go that way.

I will know more in the next few weeks

Since i have to do a lot of research (with some help) about the possibilities to try to find funding/partnership for a business and since taxes in Belgium are extremely bad for short term trading, i am probably going to start an evaluation account with OneUp later this week (profit is seen as ordinary income so no abnormal taxes).

The results on gold futures are looking very good and so i will trade this evaluation account only with gc and zb futures.

More updates will follow when progress has been made.

I assume your including commissions and since these are live results they include slippage?

How are you calculating your sharpe ratio?

Taxes in Holland are much better. 1,2% of your account (not your profit) which means no income tax (vermogensbelasting)

Part are live results, part are forward test results.
All results include commission, all entry's are made via limit orders so slippage is minimal.

I used this example to calculate my sharpe ratio

I am going with OneUp since i have more DD there, i would have chosen TST if i could use the TSTrader platform, however since my system is running via Rithmic i can not use their platform to get cheaper commission.

Thank you.
I have been looking in to starting in Holland, however i haven't done much research yet.
What do you think would make more sense to start, ZZP or Flex bv?
Are you willing to send me some more information via PM?
