So here are the results of the 1 month trading in a live account where I am now as of Monday 18th November... scaling into with a $10k account. I made $1192.70 with a $1000 account, a 119% increase. We are using a highly leveraged account to achieve this but the drawdowns have been manageable..

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

A trade that I still have open is the one below. I had went long at 14438 earlier today on the EURUSD and saw that it had failed to go above 14500 and it did make me think if I should close the trade for a healthy 55 pip profit.
