One problem that will surface when you *immediately* get the new
client into all the different trades is the fact that at least
initially, plus for some time period after he started, his equity
graph will look (considerably) different than other accounts. This is
because if you jump into trades that have already lasted 8 days, the
last 4 days may make the trade look completely different from the
actual trade that lasts 12 days for the other accounts. So I
personally would rather prefer a speed-up ramp than to get into the
speedier traffic right from the start, and would take only new entry
signals as they come, ignoring the trades that were already on at the
moment when this new client gave you money.
