walk forward graph...............

out of sample days...........

hi, i did a WFO test and set it for 20% for the start and 30% at the end...........hope this is right, if not please tell me the inputs, thanks. Not experienced with these tests so don't understand the stats if someone could clarify the wfo rsults that would great, cheers.

in case you missed it, system 1's last few months trading.......... As you can see system is not ideal, and has many losing days, months. Right i feel ive posted enough stats now on system 1, perhaps just the WFO results. Please give your views if you can? Have i 110% curve fitted...

in case you missed it, here is system 1's (original system posted on page 1) last few days trading.................

Hi intraday bill, would you say the results are impossible?, would you mind sharing how you personally go about backtesting if you do indeed do it? Can you make a comment on system 2's performance and if this too is curve fitted in your opinion. kind regards,

Dont be skeptical of lower profit targets. Lowering your profit target can alone smooth results I feel depending on symbol. Too many people focus solely on 2-1 or above which is ok for swing trading But intraday is a different ball game. They feel they must trade 2-1 or above otherwise they...

ron black. You posted an article the other day concerning type 1,2 and 3 curve fitting. Well i read that and i felt mine was type 3 because if i dont change entry but change exit only to smaller or higher im still profitable. I can increase my profit targets to end of day and im still net...

hi, sorry yes i did. I have tried those symbols and yes its very similar but id expect that as those symbols more or less follow each other. Im still struggling to see how I could have curve fitted 6000 trades to do what i wanted it to do though with only a few settings. Dont get me...

system 2 equity curve............. is this too curve fitted like the first do you feel? regards,

system 2 annual profits...........

here is my system 2........didn't want the thread to be about other systems just yet but im posting this to get views on this as its completely different system with alot less trades.............It trades very in frequent compared to the first sytem. Be interested to see which system you prefer...

sorry, misunderstood you

thanks for your feedback...........when i get time i will try what you say. Do you have any suggestions to improve trade management without using small stops?...........Ive tested 3/4's off, stop to break even etc etc but it did not improve it. One thing i have not tried is trailing stop...

Hi, when testing i start at 1-1 but im very willing to go below. Im not one of these types that automatically thinks you must have 2-1 or higher. I traded that way for a long time and constantly lost. If you look at most RTM professional traders, they too are around 1-1 or lower. It...

thanks for your feedback....... Something must be wrong then, but please help me get to the bottom of it. I would say though that system can have periods of making no money but at the same time not losing much if you know what i mean, just chopping. Not sure if this makes a difference...

..i too start at a basic of 1-1 to judge an edge and use the same concept if the win rate is above 55% i know i can start looking into it more.......If if can't meet at least that then its not worth my time as no real edge there. As for days of the week and others....Ive never wanted to do...

Mate if ive curve fitted then fine but please show me how and where?, i want to get to the bottom of this myself................It is not a one minute system. It uses at least 10 min timeframe for entry not one minute, but it uses 1 min timeframe to consider a new entry or exit as this is as...

It has not been fitted to a specific time period.....For example if i post performance starting 6 months ago, it still gives similar performance. I suppose though if i did start the test at differing time periods i would eventually get a drawdown year but only one i feel. I would have to fit...
