Someone told me that my CTA quantitative profits are too low and cannot be compared to Martingale.
These two are fundamentally different types of quantitative strategies; Martingale is purely a foolish gambling strategy. I used to engage in Martingale as well, sometimes making up to seven times in a day, but it was useless—gambling strategies can blow up at any moment.
Moreover, Martingale cannot accommodate large capital; once you increase your position and get stuck for too long, if there's a rebound but you don't break even, you can only wait to die.
Additionally, Martingale cannot be used for the long term; it often gets killed by a single spike.
CTA earns money from trends, with risks much smaller than those of Martingale, gradually taking profits and cutting losses in a trend.
Profits can be made in both bullish and bearish markets, with no need to worry about liquidation.
In the cryptocurrency space, the most important thing is to cut losses and protect profits.
