its just a straight line,it should be very mechanical if it works. trending markets like cl and tf it does work better however the pf is still pitifull.

it does work sommetimes but from purely mechanical implementation the winrate is less then 50 percent and the pf ratio is to low for it to be profitable on nq.

dear db, can you post backtest results on different type of instruments and compare how well they respect the sla rule ? Because i just cant replicate any significant advantage of sla in index futures.

everybody, just find repetetive patterns on the contract which you want to trade with positive expectancy, preferably with pf greater then 1.5, with reasonably long enough history of existqnce. thats it, thats the super secret formula that profitable trader use. the simpler the pattern, the better.

Well, if your using java, just serialize the object logic class. And when the program runs load the class dynamically using reflections. I use beanshell for an interactive command line.

this just sounds too religious, to me trading exploitable edge are easily quantifiable.

if sla entries work i should be able to code it quite easily, will make life a lot easier rather then tireless edge hunting

Can DB Method be backtested and implemented mechanically ?

Well does dbphoenix publish his backtesting results on SLA entries ?

If you wanna apply SLA wyckoff intraday , best bet is the CL or TF doing it in NQ or ES is a bit nonsensical to me. As in you wanna apply a trend following system to a mean reverting index ?

ME ME ME TEACHER, PICK ME TO ANSWER. The mountain is 70.5 feet high, however we must remind ourselves that it may not be equally sloped on all sides, and the sheep probably can't climb 90 degrees vertically. So let us use a general formula to solve for the time, depending on which slope angle...
