    Mirus Futures vs IB

    Hey guys, is Mirus futures a good broker to use with Ninjatrader? Was wondering about execution speed. Mirus offers a ridiculous amount of leverage for intraday ES contracts at $500 per contract whereas, IB is $2375 I think.

You should definitely sign up for ancestry dot com...

    This case just proves a lesson, if you live in NYC, do not go upto that hood because if you run into the thugs who live there, only bad things could happen. Id im not mistaken ive seen this very same group of bikers parked along the west side highway myself.

IT was because I didnt realize they were attempting to park the fire truck and was attempting to pass them, with them just standing out in the street. That was at 125th and 3rd avenue in Manhattan. Decided not...

PF for the optimization for 2011 was around 8.0, the unoptimized years 2010, 2012, 2013, 2009 were around 3.0-4.0 PF per year for an intraday sytem. Perhaps that would imply that my system is only...

    Most important factor to Optimize

    Is there a way to determine the degree of curve fitting in a sytem? Also, what are the odds that my systems passes the out-of-sample test simply by random chance?
