I guess the big question now, and this goes back to the remark about responsibility, is who gets fined for this?? The FCC makes the rules. Now they need to enforce them. I am afraid that if they dont, that sends another message, that its ok to bend the rules. My argument, BTW, is not whether...

Well said. Pushing the limits, intentionally. MTV is masters at this. They can F**k with CBS, and pull stunts like that, simply for the fact that MTV is power in that industry. I am still mad how it is done, though. I guess my problem with the whole thing, the thing that sickens me (and now...

Mr Shrewd, Your paranoia of others lack of tolerability of the female breast is very apparent. If you reread my post (you must! I plead with you, so you may correct yourself), you will see that I in no way condemned the female anatomy, re. Janet Jackson. Re read what I posted, instead of...

The facts all point to MTV knowing, and intentionally allowing this to occur, possibly with CBS knowing also. Whats sickening is the lack of responsibility (CBS, MTV, the preformers) all apoligizing, saying it was an accident. Playing stupid they are. Proof of this? Check out MTV.com and...

Man, a 100 percent a month model.... even with 5k to start, you could be set for life. This is what is so suspicous here. If this thing really does do 100 percent a month, whats the problem??? Even if as nononsense says, have your other less profitable systems borrow from this big one. It makes...

Thanks for the words of concern. I plan to use their demo to make sure my buys get sent as buys, sells as sells. (Would hate to find this out when system starts!).

This is just what I need. Thanks to all.

What I mean is just to send "fake" trades to some server. The text file idea makes sense, but, I dont want to take the risk of executing anything as I test. I am told that there is a login called "demo" that I can use. Anyone know the password?

Hi. DOes IB offer a simulation mode, when using their API? If so, anyone using it? And where are resources to find out..... Thanks.

I was told this when I was first testing systems, so I will pass it on to you (although it has already been said here): You need more time to test on. 4 months is not enough. From personal experience, i had a system a few months back that worked well over last 4 months- then I got data for...

Sir Mecro, I am not one to live in the fear and look over my shoulder. In fact, I firmly believe whatever happens will happen. It does not hurt to be careful, and it does not hurt to show good will or show concern for my fellow NYrs. I am just reminding everyone to be on the lookout. And...

For those in NYC (including me!), be careful, please.

Good luck with the idea! Pm me with your findings, if you can (out of curiousity).

Programmed in "scaling out" techniques using multiple contracts. DB, good advice. Seems to work well for me. Thanks.

This sounds good! I'm just thinking aloud. Maybe I will add an ErgoDic.

My quote: If trades results are above the MA, then trade the system, otherwise, if below, wait until "simulated" trades turn proitable. This is all under the assumption, that the MA of equity curve is lagging, which it always is. With that in mind, then Chess was right, many trades, if...

Patsys is the best pizza, period. Burgers? Try Nebraskas. Small bar in the wall street area - really good burgers though. (hence the name - thats where the meats from).

Hi. Is anyone doing this? Can you relay your success / non success? It makes logical and perfect sense to calculate a simple (n) period MA on trades. If trades results are above the MA, then trade the system, otherwise, if below, wait until "simulated" trades turn proitable. I would love to...

Any word on this new API? Do you have a rough estimate?

Hypo, your posts continue to aid my confidence. BTW - remember the advice you posted to me, maybe 1 month ago, the one where i let out some parameters? This is the evolution of it. Completely different, in style, but based on that one. Before I trade it, I will be sure to PM you.
