Nick RadgeKeymasterQuote:So ASIC actually does some things that are useful then Nick
Rarely…
The biggest insider trading case in Australia. ASIC only found out after two brokers reported to them.
ASIC put a single investigator on it.
They then realised that they needed higher powers so called in the Federal Police.
The Feds put 80 investigators on it and eventually busted them.
Nothing like being committed…
Nick RadgeKeymasterJust to put it out there, since MF Global, ASIC has made it a requirement that any international companies operating in Australia must now need to be (a) an Australian company, and (b) hold an AFSL.
So opening an account with IB is actually IB Australia now and not IB LLC USA as was the case with MF Global.
That said, trust nobody…
Nick RadgeKeymasterMy ASX Momo strategy having a drawdown so I’m topping up the allocation by 25%.
The average drawdown over the last 20-yrs is -19% and the last 10-yrs is -16.7%.
We’re currently at -13.5%.
Nick RadgeKeymasterHi Rob,
Rather than use DropBox, you should be able to simply cut and paste the upload from the PC to VPS.Nick
Nick RadgeKeymasterI can put in a support ticket. Scott will want to see your book though. Maybe send me the specific details and I’ll reach out to him.
Nick RadgeKeymasterWill do.
Nick RadgeKeymasterEd,
Take a look at this video on how I do it.Nick RadgeKeymasterI have several SelfWealth accounts and never have an issue.
As Julian says, place the order 3%-5% above yesterdays closing price and ensure it’s done that way before the market actually opens.
Nick RadgeKeymasterActually, my HFT data was incorrect. Current drawdown is -15.5%.
Nick RadgeKeymasterIs your MR system tracking the backtests Len?
