So the portfolio I’ve been running on a small live account has done really well, over 100% return running across 3 algos in the portfolio. Results are great and it’s times to capitalise which is why it’s time to scale up now.. my account doubled to $2000 and I’ve added another $8000 to make

Today was a straight forward trade.. I put an order to short Silver 10 points below the previous support as you can see below and put a 100 point limit on it.
