Net Profit % (January 2011): 23.57%

This is one of the systems we developed in recent years. It is short only system which trades highly liquid stocks and ETFs. During backtesting and forward testing it showed very good results in bull and bear market. All results here are simulated results and do not include commission costs (which can vary) and possibility that some stocks are hard to borrow sometimes. It use 2:1 leverage. All position are held overnight.

In January 2011, we started with a $10,000 of capital, which is in our opinion enough to sustain some drawdowns if they happen in the beginning of the trading. 

In January 2011 system made a profit of 23.57% with a drawdown of only -2.04%.
At the end of January 2011 this system made $2,357 and finished a month with a balance of $12,357
