frostengine, I'm interested, sign me up. I also would like to have backtesting and automation linked. The idea being that any code that I write for backtesting gets to be used unchanged for auto-trading. Also, e-mini application suits me just fine. Richard

Murray, I'd be interested in knowing your thoughts on how including many filters leads to a more curved fit system. Or is this not an issue since the rules as to how one takes a trade does not change, but what changes is whether the trade is taken or not. I've been trying to understand this...

jgfutures, Would trading the QN (electronic mini NG) be a worthwhile alternative for reduced slippage? Richard

According to "Freakonomics", you guys don't make much money.

Murray, Is that a typo or has your Trend Harmony system been able to make $51K so far in 2006 with only an 8% win rate?? It looks like all profits were only in one trade. What commodity was that? (CL?) This win rate appears to be atypical compared with previous years. What's going on...

For what it's worth. I did some analysis and discovered some other useful criteria. For example, entering on a "hook day" also has good results: if ( today's open > yesterday's high + x ) or ( today's open < yesterday's low - x ) then trade today I found a good value of x of...

The unfortunate thing about trading, as opposed to the majority of other fields of endevour, is that even if you read everything, it's still not enough. And on top of that, must of what you can read about trading has very little value; it's typically written by some guy who ulterior motive is to...

gharghur2, The Russell 2000 has been on a tear for over three years. Do you have any predition (even a rough one) when it might turn bearish? Within the next year? Richard
