Monday, Nov 2 replayed: how the desk would have traded Nasdaq 100
Real prices, realistic entries, and every allocation step — 1 trade, $65.89 in earnings.
Each trade below is 1 contract, 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, $5 in fees, $65.89 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: Nasdaq 100 sell
| You pay | $5 (1 Micro contract) |
|---|---|
| Desk allocation | 8% → 100% |
| Price move | +1.75% in your direction |
| Held | 5 hours |
| You earn | $65.89 (13.2× the fee) |
- You sell 1 Micro contract of Nasdaq 100 at 28,585.73 and pay the $5 fee. The desk backs it with 8% of your size, stop at 28,671.49.
- Price 28,548.47 — the trade is proving itself, so the desk steps up to 12% and lowers its stop to 28,663.09.
- Price 28,354.30 — the trade is proving itself, so the desk steps up to 55% and lowers its stop to 28,461.56.
- Price 28,272.80 — the trade is proving itself, so the desk steps up to 100% and lowers its stop to 28,357.81.
- The price pulls back toward the stop: the desk sells part of its position to keep its stop away from the price, down to 83% ($7.05 banked by then).
- The move resumes: the desk buys back, up to 100%.
- The desk exits at 28,190.64 — profit trailing stop.
- You close at 28,085.20. Your earnings: $65.89 — 13.2× the fee you paid. $7.05 of it was banked by 6 partial sales.
