After severall reactions here and directlly to me i see i have to give a bit
more explenation.
The initial margin i have to place on a eurostoxx50 future is +/- 2.500$
from the begining of this year up till know i made from that in real money
(NOT BACKTEST MONEY) ...42.500$ = 1.700% (not 1.800% anymore because i lost
some over the last week). Assuming that that would be the result on the end
of this year that would make at the end of 3 years 42.500$ x3 =
127.500$...So if i would started of with 10.000$ at the end of 3 years that
would make 510.000.$ and not 68 millions. In my country if you buy a stock
at 10 and it goes to 170 you made 1700% profit.Jean Jaques says impressive
nobody never done it. If i remember well Larry Williams turned in 1 (one)
year 1000$(thousand) into 1.000.000.$ (one million) checked by an official
bourscommité in de US. So i'm verry far of that profit...or a "little"
mirracle choud occure. So far for those who put my result in question.
For those who asked me some explenation:
If you have a system who would give you a buy signal on a stock and that
signal generates a 10% profit on that stock and the stock was at 100$ you
gain 10$ or 10%. If i get a buy signal on a equity like the eurostoxx50 and
i use this with a future and lets pretend that that equity is on 4.000 that
would bring the equity on 4.400 that would be 400 points x 10$ = 4.000$
profit...initial margin is 2.500$. That makes a profit of 160%. That will
explain for some of you how i made for this year 1.700% profit.
greetings igor

I entered the wrong numbers, thanks for catching my mistake.
The formula is p*(1 + i)*n. where p is starting amount, i is interest per
period and n is the number of periods.
hence 1.00*(1+18)*3=6859 still quite impressive. If Igor started with
$10,000. he'd have $68.59 millions at the end of 3 years - assuming a
consistent rate of return.
