Embracing Big Trading

In my trading journey, I have had the privilege of trading millions of dollars, a far cry from my humble beginnings with just $6000. This memorable start to my trading career was so impactful, it inspired me to write a book, “How I Quit My Job and turned $6000 into a Half Million Trading”.  I wrote this book over 30 years ago, but nothing in that book is outdated.   This fast start and the subsequent success of the publication of this book caught the attention of many and fueled my journey to big trading.

My Initiation into Big Trading

Initially, my path to successful large scale trading strategies led me to the overseas markets of Europe and Asia. I had the opportunity to manage around 35 million dollars for Linda Bradford Rashke (LBR Group). I became her overnight trader.  Later, I ventured into trading a multi-million dollar US stock account for a few years on behalf of a gentleman residing in Germany. Despite my modest beginning, this journey familiarized me with the intricacies of big trading, handling large positions, and managing big money in the markets.

Mirror to My Trading Journey

The stock trade positions that I share on this website closely mirror the size and trading style I adopted for the German gentleman. In fact, my current trading system, JORDI FUSION, is virtually identical to that experience.  In fact about two decades later, on June 15, 2023, I was trading JORDI FUSION in a very similar way with about a half million in cash:

A Glimpse into the Million Dollar Account

This Excel graph elucidates the accumulated profits of the account I managed for the German gentleman from July 1999 through October 2001.  Note that the profits shown hit 5 million dollars.  Note that the graph shown here looks very similar to the graph on the cover of my book pictured above.  I include some information and statistics from this million-dollar account to showcase the potential of JORDI FUSION. This system, which can be acquired for $2000, is essentially similar to what I was trading over 20 years ago and could produce this same graph with enough cash to trade.

Beyond Small Trading

Although I believe trading a small account can be more challenging than trading millions, it’s essential to dispel any misconceptions about my trading skills. The art of trading is not confined to small amounts. Instead, it thrives on the successful transition from small to big trading.

Trading Big and Small: More Alike Than Different

Interestingly, trading five million dollars isn’t vastly different from trading five thousand. The fundamental rules remain the same, and statistically, both types of accounts should yield similar results.

Inside the Stats: Profits and Trades

A closer look at the statistics reveals impressive numbers. The account initially started with 1.5 million, fluctuated greatly, and finally ended at half a million. The account even touched a high of six million at one point. Based on my estimation of the average account size being two million, it yielded an average annualized return of about 100%. Similar returns were reported in my book, reinforcing the efficacy of these systems.  And from 2013 to the present 2023 similar results have been realized trading the JORDI systems.  You can in fact download these real time results at the very bottom of the Home page of this web site.

The Art of High Volume Trading

We make our profits by trading a lot, even though our average profits may seem relatively low. The Excel sheet shows that a whopping nearly two billion dollars moved in and out of these markets within just 27 months, through 11,689 trades. The average profit per trade, however, was only $385, while the best and worst trades were $69,484 and -$37,022, respectively.

Making Profit from Small Trades

A glance at JORDI FUSION’s daily trades reveals many small trades. We engage in high volume trading, taking a lot of small trades to find the big ones. Surprisingly, less than 5% of the trades generate 60% to 70% of our profits.  Our average trades are not impressive and our average trading days are not impressive either.  This is what it looked like on the close on June 23, 2023:

To delve into the stunning figures behind this five million dollar success story, let’s take a peek again at the Excel data. As stated previously the account initially started with 1.5 million, saw tremendous fluctuation, and ultimately settled at half a million, with a peak of six million in between.

Estimating the account’s average size to be around two million dollars, this trading journey resulted in an average annualized return of approximately 100%. Again these impressive returns are strikingly similar to those I reported in both my book and my JORDI trading, reinforcing the idea that my trading systems truly work.

Profits in the Details: Excel Sheet Insights

This Excel sheet also provides some additional intriguing stats: Over 27 months, 11,689 trades moved an astounding $1,946,770,083 (almost two billion dollars) in and out of these markets. Despite the average profit per trade being only $385, we generated nearly five million dollars, demonstrating how high-volume trading with seemingly low profits per trade can yield significant returns.

Making the Most of Small Trades

Upon examining JORDI FUSION’s daily trades, you will observe an abundance of small trades. These are intentional, as we often have to engage in a high volume of small trades to uncover the big ones. Surprisingly, less than 5% of the trades generate between 60% and 70% of our profits. The average trade may only result in a few hundred dollars, despite committing about $50,000 in cash to each trade.

Capitalizing on Big Trades

However, amidst the many small trades are the big ones – some even earning over $30,000 in just two or three days. These significant trades are instrumental to our successful trading strategy and underline that “Jordi” remains as efficient today as it was a decade or two ago.

On June 1,2023 our patience paid off with an outlier trade in SunCar Technology Group:

The Ever-Reliable “JORDI” Systems

By posting these real-time trades daily, I aim to demonstrate that my “JORDI” systems are as robust and reliable as ever. The unusual style of trading we employ ensures both safety and good returns.

The Power of Consistency

Whether you’re trading with five million dollars or five thousand dollars, the basic trading strategy stays the same. My advice? Stick with a robust system, engage in all trades, and watch as the profits follow.

From Small Trading to Big Trading

Who knows? By following the system diligently and consistently, you might soon find yourself transitioning from small trading to big trading, just like I did. The journey to significant trading begins with small steps and consistency, coupled with the right tools and systems.
