We went live today on the One Million MNS 110 with a 20% allocation to the 250K Portfolio. We started after an additional hypothetical drawdown in the overnight session and pre-market. The live results were +$2,500 or up +0.25%. The live results for the 250K Portfolio was +$500. We started trading live once the hypothetical results were down about -12K in the One Million MNS 110 in the pre-market. On the day, the hypothetical results were approximately -$9,500 (in the One Million MNS 11) as of 3:45 pm CST (still a few open positions).
This put the drawdown at -$40K intra-day when we started live. This is about $18K away from a worse case drawdown. This reduces the risk to hypothetical worse case down to -$3,600 in the $250K Portfolio instead of -$12K if we started at equity peaks.
It is a good entry point to manage risk. Now we look for a bounce. We won't exit right away if it tests the worst case drawdown as we will give it some room to bounce at those levels.
The hypothetical results for the Stock Index Portfolio 18 was +$1,475 per E-mini on only 4 trades.
