Hello Jcl, thank you for the formula here...

"The required capital for restarting is C = C0 * sqrt(1+N/N3), where C0 = required capital from the test, N = number of trades so far, N3 = 3*annual number of trades in the test."

but I am not good with math. anyway to show this formula in some examples with numbers?

e.g. if I have lets say $5000 to start with the very first time. I let the Z12 system run for a year or two and now the account is lets say $10,000. and I am running margin 35 and risk 10. what do I need to do to margin so it will calculate lots based on $10,000 not the original $5000? in other words to re-invest the gains or increase lots as account increases and decrease lots as account decreases?

thanks,
