    On a "per market" basis Matt's result is better - 26% / 9 markets = 2.9%/market/year.

    Whereas mine on a $10K account = 55% / 25 markets = 2.2%/market/year.

    My perspective is I'm happy to take a slightly lower profit margin in exchange for a larger volume of markets and hence trades. Which is not the same thing as just increasing the sizing on 9 markets - because I still get the extra diversification benefit from being in more markets - compare the max DD/market 6%/9 = 0.67% DD/market for Matt's portfolio, whereas for min its 12%/25 = 0.48% DD/market.

    Economies of scale in action...

    Cheers, Sharks
