1st Week Results

After some false starts and some broker issues I was having I finally finished my first week of intelli4x signals.

I traded all the signals I could with the exception of euro and swissy trades. My personal preference is not to trade both these pairs as they are more than 90% inversely correlated. Often signals came in to buy euro and sell swissy or vice versa in quick succession. I took the trade that came in first. Upon reflection this method doesn't accurately judge the entire service and isn't in the spirit of a full evaluation.

Otherwise I took every trade I could. Most signals come in between 1 and 9AM est so its prime sleeping time for those of us in the states. My phone woke me up most of the time. I also spent 3 nights in hotels this week due to business travel.

All the trades were taken on an IBFX live standard account. My personal results for the week were +127 net pips to the account after spread. +152 pips if not counting spread.

For next week my schedule is less hectic so I have dedicated myself to take EVERY trade and to apply a 6k lot size for "swing" trades and a 16k lot size for "intraday" trades to show what kind of $$ that would be accrued if trades were on a $5000 dollar account (this amount I have interpolated from intelli4x's recommended risk based on my actual account size to not exceed 15% drawdown). I will also note "swing" and "intraday" trades more clearly on my report.

The attached spreadsheet was compiled from my live account. I did not include a standard "detailed statement" as I am manually trading this account at the same time. Next Friday's report will include more detail and will be more accurate, I promise.

Overall, I am impressed so far and I apologize to intelli4x for wasting the initial 2 weeks of the trial while I dealt with some broker things.
