I can see you are "what if" person. You have solution, see first results and you want to put it at work as soon as possible..right? :) I am for example "what"/"how" person - I need to "understand" how something works and why before I do that. If you really want to talk about psychology or NLP...

I understand...so you have system with fixed parameters and it should work on 70% of markets? 1. May I know what markets you test your system on? Are we talking about currencies too? Does your system work on EUR/USD and GBP/USD at the same time? 2. Also - when you say 10 or 20 years what...

OK guys. I have made additional tests with my system on other pairs than EUR/USD. I never do it but I used optimization and with specific "periods" setting my system did bring on historical data good results on any currency pair. So I want to make things more clear and ask again, summarising...

Are you sure this would work? If EUR/USD H=1.30 then 1/h would be 0.76...no chance EUR/USD could cross such level. Do not hesitate to correct me if I am missing something.

Any idea how I can get such data for USD/EUR? I use MetaStock...can't figure out how to create USD/EUR chart/instrument out of EUR/USD data. I even exported EUR/USD to excel hoping I could do it this there but have no clue how to do it...

That was example....in reality it makes EXIT on different condition - although as simple as in example. So for example Enter when break above HighestHigh100 and Exit below LowestLow100(from X periods ago, Ref function). So it is not true and complete REVERSAL as I sometimes have periods of "out...

| We are talking about system that did not have parameters changed. It was like "break above HighestHigh of 100 periods". Tested on many markets and works great on EUR/USD...a little bit on USD/JPY and completely sucks. I use very long periods although it is on 1h charts. This way during...

Thank you both guys for valuable input. So from what you all are saying following picture comes up for me: It does not have to work on all markets. It can work on one market only- but I should stay ahead of possible changes. Try to look into future how it can change and know what to do with...

Thank you all guys. So it looks like I worry too much. My concern was following - if system does not work on many markets(different environments) how can it survive on one market for a long period of time in future? I mean my market can change in future - right? So if it works on many markets...

Hello guys, How do you deal with "universality" of your systems? Do you think system should be good at all markets(or at least as many as possible) or can it be good only at one? I have few trading systems designed for forex. But I have following problem - some of them look great on...
