C2Star

You can read more about C2Star certification requirements here.

Note that: all trading strategies are risky, and C2Star Certification does not imply that a strategy is low risk.

Annual Return (Compounded)

Rate of Return Calculations

Overview

To comply with NFA regulations, we display Cumulative Rate of Return for strategies with a track record of less than one year. For strategies with longer track records, we display Annualized (Compounded) Rate of Return.

How Annualized (Compounded) Rate of Return is calculated

= ((Ending_equity / Starting_equity) ^ (1 / age_in_years)) - 1

Remember that, following NFA requirements, strategy subscription costs and estimated commissions are included in marked-to-market equity calculations.

All results are hypothetical.

The last 4 month of the yeatr ar before us. Most options expire in this month, so the best performance will be ahead of me.
Target 20% reached...
yearly target topped with +21,80%
Yearly-target reched, judz shy of a new alltimehigh. Just short-term weeklies are as shorts open, while I do have the stocks. Nect year we start new with target 20% again
Looks like we are reaching new alltimehighs here. Everything works fine, thanks to incorporating seasonality, pattern-AI-Signals and other systems for tradesignals....
Again reaching new Highs.

Strategy Description

The system has the Name “The Prometheus Project” for several reasons. Prometheus is the name of a god and it means “Look ahead”. We use several systems, who tell us, which option to sell.
One uses artificial intelligence, which learns with every new day and give better signals. Only signals will be traded, when a minimum move of 20 % in the next 120 days is predicted, based on historical data. Based on the signal we sell the opposite option far below the stop of 15%. Other systems give us the info with straddles, puts or Calls the best option to sell based on implied volatility.
The seasonal direction from signal day to closing day must be the same as the signal direction: If long, than the seasonality must be upward and viceversa. In case of a option going in the money we justify by using other options or stocks. I rare cases we buy back the options. Sometimes we get assigned, which allows us using this stock for the wheel-strategy.
We trade live. Every trade is done in realtime live via IB-Account!

We think, this multi-dimension approach is the right way to beat every other system on collective2 on a long term basis. Because through our unique system based on artificial intelligence, we are ahead of the game. Time will tell...
Again: This system is traded live via interactive broker!

The last 4 month of the yeatr ar before us. Most options expire in this month, so the best performance will be ahead of me.
Target 20% reached...
yearly target topped with +21,80%
Yearly-target reched, judz shy of a new alltimehigh. Just short-term weeklies are as shorts open, while I do have the stocks. Nect year we start new with target 20% again
Looks like we are reaching new alltimehighs here. Everything works fine, thanks to incorporating seasonality, pattern-AI-Signals and other systems for tradesignals....
Again reaching new Highs.

More information about leverage

Collective2 calculates the maximum leverage used by a strategy in each day. We then display the average of these measurements (i.e. the average daily maximum leverage) and the greatest of these measurements (maximum daily leverage).

Leverage is the ratio of total notional value controlled by a strategy divided by its Model Account equity. Generally higher leverage implies greater risk.

Example of calculation:
The Strategy buys 100 shares of stock at $12 per share.
The Model Account equity during that day is $5,000.
The leverage is: $1200 / $5,000 = 0.24

This is a useful measurement, but it should be considered in context. This measurement doesn't take into account important factors, such as when multiple positions are held that are inversely correlated. Nor does the measurement take into account the volatility of the instruments being held.

In addition, certain asset classes are inherently more leveraged than others. For example, futures contracts are highly leveraged. Forex positions are often even more leveraged than futures.

Latest Activity

subscribed on started simulation

Most values on this page (including the Strategy Equity Chart, above) have been adjusted by estimated trading commissions and subscription costs.

Some advanced users find it useful to see "raw" Model Account values. These numbers do not include any commissions, fees, subscription costs, or dividend actions.

Strategy developers can "archive" strategies at any time. This means the strategy Model Account is reset to its initial level and the trade list cleared. However, all archived track records are permanently preserved for evaluation by potential subscribers.

About the results you see on this Web site

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.

In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program, which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

Material assumptions and methods used when calculating results

The following are material assumptions used when calculating any hypothetical monthly results that appear on our web site.

  • Profits are reinvested. We assume profits (when there are profits) are reinvested in the trading strategy.
  • Starting investment size. For any trading strategy on our site, hypothetical results are based on the assumption that you invested the starting amount shown on the strategy's performance chart. In some cases, nominal dollar amounts on the equity chart have been re-scaled downward to make current go-forward trading sizes more manageable. In these cases, it may not have been possible to trade the strategy historically at the equity levels shown on the chart, and a higher minimum capital was required in the past.
  • All fees are included. When calculating cumulative returns, we try to estimate and include all the fees a typical trader incurs when AutoTrading using AutoTrade technology. This includes the subscription cost of the strategy, plus any per-trade AutoTrade fees, plus estimated broker commissions if any.
  • "Max Drawdown" Calculation Method. We calculate the Max Drawdown statistic as follows. Our computer software looks at the equity chart of the system in question and finds the largest percentage amount that the equity chart ever declines from a local "peak" to a subsequent point in time (thus this is formally called "Maximum Peak to Valley Drawdown.") While this is useful information when evaluating trading systems, you should keep in mind that past performance does not guarantee future results. Therefore, future drawdowns may be larger than the historical maximum drawdowns you see here.

Trading is risky

There is a substantial risk of loss in futures and forex trading. Online trading of stocks and options is extremely risky. Assume you will lose money. Don't trade with money you cannot afford to lose.

Okay, gotcha.
