How long should my trading strategy be successful for before a hedge fund or investment bank considers buying it? I've made $7500 in 2 months so far from an initial capital of $1000.

>inb4 why would you want to sell a successful strategy lol

Well I don't want to be a trader all my life. I want to save up money for college as I want to be an academic someday (yeah its a "retarded" dream I know). So if I can make a quick buck something like $250k upfront i would not think twice selling the blueprints of my strategy.

selling your strategy if it was actually the REASON for why you earned this much in such a short time.

I already know you are lying piece of shit

you trading options? penny stocks?

No one buys trading strategies. They hire you or buy your fund. Or you start your own fund.

If your returns of 7500% compounded every two months last - which it likely won't, why bother? In 6 months you'd have 177 million, in 6 more months you'd be the richest man in history.

hedge funds want strategies that can scale

legit strategies that could make you 7500 in two months from 1000 are highly unlikely to be scalable, they'd tend to be intraday stuff

so... if you're genuine, a hedge fund wouldn't likely be interested anyway

even if you are genuine and have good intentions it is much more likely that you've got lucky over a series of risky trades than actually discovering that sort of edge

assuming you're both genuine and it isn't luck then you should just keep trading it - it is of no use to a hedge fund and with those sorts of returns you don't even need to bother with seed capital from a prop shop - your best solution is simply to trade it yourself and keep 100%

makes no sense anyway... at your supposed rate of return you'd exceed that amount within 3-4 months time - it would take you longer than that to market and pitch the idea to firms, deal with lawyers etc..etc.. assuming it was even something they'd be interested in

2 months of returns aren't going to be useful anyway and if you trade it for 6 months more you'll be a millionaire anyway (supposedly)

Real money or on a simulator?
With what kind of stocks?
What leverages?

Not trying to sound like an ass, but likely you just got lucky.

And if you really have a well thought out strategy that enables you to consistently more than septuple your money over the course of two months, you just need another 4 months and you have about half a million dollars to start your academic career.
But you probably should wait another two months and keep trading, because after that, you'd have over 3 millions, and that allows for a really comfy academic living. And all of your future colleagues would love you, since you can probably fund quite a bit of research yourself, instead of hunting for grants. Would probably even be tax deductible.

Soooo, any backtesting?
