    anatomy of a backtest report

    I see these backtest reports all over the place, but I've never seen a publication that explains each line on a backtest report line by line. Does anyone know of a publication that has this info?

    INTJ trader's girl?

    Not unusual. The last category is less clear cut. My reading tends to flip between INFP and INFJ. And I think adaption to what work you do for a living may play a part. I wonder how successful NF traders trade? Or even if their are any?

    Osama is Alive

    I think the attack on Iraq IS part of the war on terrorism. I agree with the Secretary of War (oops, I mean Defense). The reason he disagrees with the other intelligence agencies about Saddam's connection to terrorism is not because he has any proof there's a connection, but because he KNOWS...

    Please please help

    If you are not already using one, I suggest you get backtesting software. The cheapest one I of know of is Amibroker with Telechart 2000 data feed. Once you start playing around with trading system ideas (even if your specific system isn't programmable), and playing around with profit stop...
