    Would you trade this system?

    Hi again, Those are pretty nice equity curves... but... 1) Did you reoptimize, or change any of the parameters? 2) How many equities did you test? I'm guessing you are just showing the best. I really would forward test the system without $ before risking anything... But then, I don't...

    A trading thought experiment

    At that point, you start buying all of it back at the rate of 100 contracts per second (same rate). ->No stated limit, although it is obvious. Hence, I said I was cheating :)
