There is some problem with the dd calculation of many systems. See the screenshots. Also Turtle EUR while his dd does line up with his history it seems missing information and also I remember it being higher.

It's likely a bug since they wouldn't reveal the real dd if they were doing it intentionally. Even still it looks bad and it makes making decisions more difficult. Another side note is that the dd on the front page usually includes equity drawdown (unrealized losses) while the other one is just trades after they have closed which is less accurate.

Myfxbook has had this problem for months. They sometimes fix it temporarily but it always goes back. Its a bug and it makes it really hard to search through the accounts..

Anyone subscribing to Bulldozer signal with real acc? I'm wondering why there're many 0s trading history with the provider. How does it really work? Is it just a wrongly tracked info?

says a lot that the #2 trader (Pro Trading - according to the autotrade chart), had a 10% loss today.

when i checked the DD on friday (before subscribing) it didn't show the -20% spike that occured on the 1st Nov...

if the DD graph was correct/updated i wouldn't have subscribed... and seen a 10% loss..

yay for autotrade...

I am sorry for your loss, could you please let me know what strategy are you taking about? I could not find any with that name.

I am since 6 weeks ago, so far so good but 6 weeks are not enough to say anything... What do you mean by trading history? number of trades??

Found it, my page was not updated. If you are new to Autotrade, you have to know that the worse thing you can do is subscribe to strategies based in their ranking, you have to set your own criteria in order to filter them. For example 5 months old strategy would be too young for most of the people to invest on it.

anyone using 'turtle EUR'? trading 1 year 6months and good profit.
people say it's martingale and it seems like it. big SL and sometimes big losses..
how long will it last based on possibility of martingale method fail?
it has traded about 350 times so far..
what is the likelihood of it able to trade until it fails?

its hard to explain.. IF possibility of failure of turtle EUR was 1/1000 it means there is 1/650 trades left it can make

im thinking maybe the chance of hitting the failing trade is low still?

It could take a lot longer than that. 4-6 weeks or maybe longer. I think once you submit your system, they first monitor it for a while before they approve / reject it.

Monitor the Risk of Ruin of any systems you copy, as the investor it's your job to protect your money. You could also stop following a strategy when it falls below a predetermined %, and either wait for the system to move back to profitability or move your money to another strategy.

Either way as the investor you should not expect to park your money somewhere and blindly follow, being an investor is just as much work as being a trader.

How do you read risk of ruin? Don't know how is calculated but for me does not provide much information as many of the values are <0.01 even for a system like turtle

Has anyone signed up with real account and can share their results? A lot of these guys average a few pips per trade.... The lag time and slippage can easily turn those little winners into losers for subscribers.
