Roman, if you find it, please send me the link. I want to watch this conference.
Everything to watch. And in general - the "coup" from the 44th minute.
If you allow a drawdown of e.g. 20%, what is the purpose of the remaining 80% of the account? In this case, open an account with 20% of all funds and work for all. Trading with a max drawdown of 20% of the total amount available and trading with a drawdown of 100% of the total amount is one and the same.
I don't talk to anyone about it, but they all turn their heads. Maybe I don't understand?
If you do not know what to do with trader, you should invest 100% of your funds, i.e. not 100$ when the drawdown is 20%, but 20$ when the drawdown is 100%.
What's so wild about it?
This is a stereotype from books that were written a long time ago and for markets with little or no leverage. There you have to keep more money in the account than you are prepared to lose in order to provide diversification and acceptable returns.
Let me give you my opinion on the topic of the topic. I too have for a few years now, have a point of view like SEVER32 and thought I was some kind of idiot following such principles of calculation. And just recently began to understand the opposite point of view - if you start from a random walk, then of course the conclusions about the percentage loading depot sound (as otherwise simply to count), but if you dance from the position of awareness of the situation, the calculations will have an entirely different look. There are no fools, there is just misunderstanding.
If you look at it from any angle, holding unused money in a trading account does not give you any advantage. That's because
1. there is a risk of loss of funds associated with the office where the trading account is held
2. unused funds in the trading account usually do not generate income, even in the form of bank interest
I.e., the best principle is to use segregated accounts where the principal part of the deposit is kept in a reliable bank, which generates revenue in the form of interest, and the small part necessary to maintain the margin is automatically transferred to the trading account. You can do it yourself - self-segregation)). Of course, this does not affect the MM, and vice versa - MM determines what part of the deposit has sense to keep in the trading account, and what part in the bank. This means that if you use leverage correctly, it is an interest-free credit, and it is a sin not to use it regardless of your trading strategies.
There are also purely technical advantages. If there will be a huge gap over the stop level, the losses may be greater than planned. If on the trading account to keep a smaller amount, then you will not go in the red. But it is true that brokerage companies protect themselves from such surprises and schemes relying solely on this increasing their margin before the weekend.
