I agree. and disagree, with Silverthorn. He is correct in his observation about your margin calls. You can’t run 90% on both trades. On a 10,000 account trading standard lots at, you would have 10 lots on each trade open for a total of 20 lots?
On the other hand, high leverage and “snatching profits from the jaws of death” is not appropriate either. There is a saying that if you learn to trade well, the profits will take care of themselves. Since this is automated, your only control is appropriate money management and I see none in either example. You may get lucky and get your seed money back before the margin call, but luck is not a good long term strategy.
In any case, best wishes with the strategies.

I understand what you are saying from a conventional view point and agree except that I believe in context I have very sound money management. I do have an acceptable stop loss on my trade (10% at risk) and I have an excellent stop loss to take profit ratio. The change in thinking is that the account balance is the trade and the margin call is the stop loss. I have allocated $4000 to sPhantem and funded the account with only $400. It's really just an alternative method of placing a hard stop and limiting risk while allowing high exposure.

Guys I don't know if it's any use to you at all but I'm in the middle of preparing the 18 months of back test data on the sPhantom site into a format that will go into my spreadsheet.

Basically collating and writing a formula that will look up the draw down of each trade and adding some randomisation to the pip values to simulate slippage because each winning trade shows a 10 pip profit. Will share when done but remember while it is helpful for longer testing of scenarios it is only back test results and should be treated as such.
