Don't worry - What software are you using? And more importantly what are you optimizing for? I have many 1 min strats for ES. After optimization for 1 full year you should expect over 500- 1000++ trades at least. For 5 minutes over 100-200. Anything lower for each one IMO is too...

Then it sounds like a convincing argument to dollar cost average into at the very least?

IN regards to optimization you really need a large enough sample size to be significant. Unless I missed the other posts I just see 3 months. How many trades would this have produced / what time frames are we talking about here? BTW, profit factor really doesn't mean shit. I can have a...

Yeah, I mean it was just something that caught my eye. Although I did not see your post previously. I really do think though that this DBLDIP shit is just for webclickz and bullshit. I really do not see a double dip with 0 Fed Funds Rate. Although anything is possible.

Well lets see what happens. I think this could be something to watch at least. Not that I spend my days with a microscope looking for fractals or anything. Just an observation. And most of my OP was just a joke, except I really do think ZH is laughable at best.

It's close but not really the same thing. Plus we were coming out of a bull market at all time highs. This formation and the one in late 2008-2009 has 3 descending bottoms. Not that this means anything, just saying. Anyway, like all of these "wait and see" threads it is all the same. I am...

*Putting in long term memory* By the end of August as the SP500 breaches 1200 if I do not hear or read a typed (or handwritten) apology from you I am going to unsubscribe from your newsletter. This time for good. :)

Yeah, but it actually looks more like the example I provided. And I think the guy took your certificates ran off with my BUYX. That still burns.

If your handle was "RunningBull" it would be much more appropriate for this thread.

I don't know man. I'm never TOO wrong about the market. JK mang' but seriously, you're allowed to be wrong. Just know that you will be exiting early. The good news is that you will have many more chances to make amends on the way to 1350. If this comes to fruition I will be posting all my...

Really? Did you have to register though to make this comment? And when you registered did you just happen to put your name in the "First Name" box? Not trying to sound like a dick, haha. But am interested.

I am standing behind you dressed in a clown suit smelling of Sams Club Branded Whisky. Boo!:confused:

OK. Back. 1. No doubt, I totally agree. I have multiple models - most are 1 minute but I do have a couple 5 minute programs and then also another program that goes both ways (5 min as well - others hopefully off the ground soon enough). I guess that wasn't conveyed in this thread but...

Has anyone else noticed this March - July chart pattern looks exactly like a mini October 2008 - March 2009? IMO this is definitely the beginning of the next huge run up. I am going to go out on a limb and say we see 1300-1400 SP500 this year before it is over if we do indeed end up breaking...

I don't disagree with anything you have said and I will expand on this later when I have some time. Thanks for the lengthy reply, but you did not mention when/if you are tweaking these strats and how often you are doing this? Btw, I do have access to non retail software and...

1. You could apply this to any scenario dealing with anything at anytime. I am unsure yet if this is even true because my job is to model. Think about it this way. Microsoft pushes out Windows 7. Is it perfect? Fuck no, you need to update that shit especially if you have x86 systems etc...

Yes, it is quite the work in progress. Fortunately for me I am only responsible for so much. I do not doubt anything you are saying but I do have enough information *IMO* to plan for a wide enough variance for now that will yield well. It is now down to execution within these resolutions and...

Yeah, the best case scenario is "too hot for TV" if you know what I mean. I knew that would be inflated. I would still be very much more than pleased if it was 1 step above brutal. I also have very quick access and ultra low latency at my disposal which I guess could do nothing more but...

I would rather not say. But I will say I have accounted for the best case, a worse case, and brutal scenarios. I know I am most likely not doing anything groundbreaking and just about everything has been thought of in an infinite universe but I still like to keep my IP to myself. After this...
