If you make $100 on $100 that's 100% ... right ?
If you make $100 on $5200 thats < 2% ... right ?
Compounded weekly doubling on $100 for a year = $100 * 2 ^ 52 ...
That would appear to be more then all the grains of sand on all the
beaches on the planet.
The problem with systems that are capable of weekly doubling also
typically have huge drawdowns relative to what is invested which is
why they can't be traded with anything close to ones investible
assets and when attempted with large dollars even when that isn't a
large percentage of investible assets will fall on their face for
other reasons.
As a result non compounded trading in systems like this are only good
with play money ...
