Model Portfolio Explanation
When trades are called out in the room for educational purposes, I state if I am trading it in full or half size. If I trade a stock index such as the FTSE or the DAX, I trade it in INDEX size. If I trade a currency, I trade it in FOREX size. I chose between FULL and HALF depending on the size of stop-loss. Although I trade a different size myself, I have used the following monetary stake size for trading Forex and Stock Indices to make the results easier to understand.
- Full Forex Size = £5 a point (pip)
- Full Stock Index Size = £10 a point
- Model Account size = £5000
Most brokers require 200 - 250 times your stake size in margin, although some require much less. As I rarely trade more than 2-3 positions at any one time, it means that one can hypothetically speaking replicate the results in the WhichWayToday live trading room with a £5000 trading account. Therefore I have set the model portfolio as £5000.
