Market replay, Nov 5: 1 trade the desk would have backed
From the first step in to the final close, minute by minute.
Each trade below is 2 contracts, entered after the move had already started and closed either as it faded or when the desk’s own stop took it out — not the perfect top or bottom. Every step comes from replaying real market prices, minute by minute, through the live Trade Syndication engine.
In total: 1 trade, $90 in fees, $1,709.41 in earnings.
How the desk trades with you
- You open a trade and pay a flat fee per contract. That is the most it can cost you.
- The desk backs your trade with its own capital — a small allocation at first, stepping up as the trade proves itself, protected by its own stop, which trails the move as it goes your way.
- You are paid 90% of what the desk’s allocation makes. If it makes nothing, you are paid nothing.
Trade 1: S&P 500 sell
| You pay | $90 (2 Pro contracts) |
|---|---|
| Desk allocation | 10% → 100% |
| Price move | +3.04% in your direction |
| Held | 4 hours |
| You earn | $1,709.41 (19× the fee) |
- You sell 2 Pro contracts of S&P 500 at 7,697.80 and pay the $90 fee. The desk backs it with 10% of your size, stop at 7,736.29.
- Price 7,695.80 — the trade is proving itself, so the desk steps up to 35% and lowers its stop to 7,709.30.
- Price 7,693.80 — the trade is proving itself, so the desk steps up to 85% and lowers its stop to 7,707.00.
- Price 7,691.90 — the trade is proving itself, so the desk steps up to 100% and lowers its stop to 7,705.10.
- The price pulls back toward the stop: the desk sells part of its position to keep its stop away from the price, down to 77% (-$11.88 banked by then).
- The move resumes: the desk buys back, up to 100%.
- The desk exits at 7,505.11 — profit trailing stop.
- You close at 7,464.00. Your earnings: $1,709.41 — 19× the fee you paid. $1,345.19 of it was banked by 6 partial sales.
Replays are how we show the engine honestly: the market already moved, and we only show what the desk would actually have done.
