Hi David, McDirt and TechA,

I have been very happy with TradeSim but would like to be able to test some money management protocols other than varying my risk for the trading system overall. The sort of basic version of the protocol I would like to be able to test is to increase my risk % after a number of profitable trades eg 3 and then increase it again if there is a continued run of profitable trades. The reverse technique would be used for losing trades, as below

Trade Risk Win/Lose
1 2% w
2 2% w
3 2% l
4 2% l
5 2% l
6 1% l
7 1% l
8 1% l
9 0.5% w
10 0.5% w
11 0.5% w
12 1% w
13 1% w
14 1% l
15 1% w
16 1% w
17 1% w
18 2% w

And so on and so on.Basically this method increases risk when winning streaks occur and decreases risk when losing streaks occur. Is it possib le to have a variable input option to test this sort of money management protocol?

The variables would be;

Max % risk eg 2%
Vary number of winning trades, X
Vary number of losing trades, Y
Increase risk by % when X winning trades in a row occur
Decrease risk by % when Y losing trades in a row occur.

Many thanks for your time and efforts to making TradeSim
such a great product, David.

Cheers
