Does anyone know where I can find some some investors to contribute start up capital for a forex hedge fund? -
I have developed a proprietary expert advisor (trading robot) that has a 78% win ratio and a less than 20% drawdown. My monthly average is 38% compounded monthly. I ll be a millionaire in two years, with or without investors, but since no one is promised tomorrow...I would like to accelerate this process. Advice? nice twisting of the language there! quot;38% compounded monthlyquot; = 38% if you assume 12 compounding periods per year. but anyway - if you want to start a hedge fund, i hope you have one heck of a pedigree, and a bunch of seed capital yourself. you ll probably spend (minimum) $250k just on lawyers, and it will take nearly a year to get the proper approvals. then you can start trying to collect ~$10m (minimum) to get decent rates and execution from your prime. the first year, just to break even (assuming a 50% annual return) you ll probably need to get 3/30 in fees. oh, and by the way - if there was any part of that you didn t understand, figure on at least another $100k to the lawyers. Put 50% of your winnings into the bank. If you re married, put it in a trust in your wife s name. That advice is actually from Jesse Livermore, the legendary trader who made and lost fortunes in stocks and commodities and killed himself. I don t know much about hedge funds, but every star I ve read about who started a hedge fund had several years of success, not several months, so I doubt that serious money would look at you now. They d probably expect you to have made several million, not a paltry one. If you were earning a 38% monthly return, you d have no problem raising more capital. Unless, of course, you don t have a long enough history of successful returns or perhaps your quot;trading robotquot; doesn t really work. 38% monthly return on even $1,000 makes you a millionaire in less than two years. So... go to your bank and borrow moeny at whatever rate they ll give you. Use your trading robot, and send me a portion of the $1 trillion you have in a few years. I can talk to you, I too have created an FX program and its in testing stages with real capital. It quot;onlyquot; generates 20% a month but I have access to lots of a seed capital. How long have you traded real money (you will need a years worth of auditied results minimum)? I will email you so if you are interested in discussing this you can have the opportunity.
