This has already been addressed in the SPY system details page,
which I will soon make available. Yes the same dollar amount,
say $100K traded in the Single Entry system produces more total net
profit then $100K traded with the Multi Entry system.
For example, Non
Compounded:
Single Entry
system:100K - turns in $604K.
Largest losing trade is -3.4K, average losing trade is 1K
Multi Entry
system: 100K turns into $347K
Largest losing trade is -1.3K, average losing trade is
-0.35K
However, since the average losing trade, largest losing trade,
and draw down are about 2.5X less then the Multi Entry system, the
capital can theoretically be increased 2.5X on the Multi Entry
system in order to get the same dollar risk.
Multi Entry system traded with $250K would have turned into
$855K.
Remember all these effects are non compounded. When
compounding gets' thrown into the mix, $100K on the single entry
system turns into $17.5 million in 16 years, that's $175 times your
money. Even only a 50% compounding turns into $3.7 million or
37 times ones money.
One word- amazing. Matt, save the time for your family- I don't
need a webinar- just launch the system! And thank you again for
giving ordinary folks like us the opportunity to be part of an
institutional-class effort.

I knew you had to have considered the 2x non-compounded return
disparity. It makes sense to me to start with 100% allocations to
the instrument of one's choice on the first signal in order to get
everything that the single entry system would give, and then add on
when multiple signals are generated. There have only been 58%
more trades generated in the multi-entry over the whole backtesting
period, so one isn't really allocating that much more capital that
often to capture the higher winning percentage. That is, one
rarely would get to the 2.5x commitment of capital, and not even
get past 1.5x all that often, all things being equal going
forward. The backtesting makes it clear that as the system
works, there is much more bang over time for $'s committed in
the 1st trade of each signal. So even if someone only went from 1x
to 1.5x overall, the results would be better than .6x to 1x. The
capital constrained could get creative on leverage after the 1st
trade, etc. A lot of possibilities come from a solid underlying
system. Thanks again.

I think you meant "are about 2.5x less usingthe Multi Entry system. . . ." More importantly, thank you for clarifying this point.
