It is the job of a goverment to intervene. This is why it is elected. I do not understand your agenda. You do not like the fact that the FED intervenes in the markets to protect the intersts of the people that it serves? Next, you are also delusional that gold can ever become a currency again...

The demise of China rests on the pain that America is willing to withstand. The game will start with a devaluation of the dollar so oil rises to $200. Manufacturing will return to America. It was announced last week by the administration that this is the objective. Read carefully...

It's because they use adjusted data. $137.18 is the correct figure. Market will go through it like a hot knife goes through butter. Market is cheap in the US. Little overbought for now but after a pause it will rally. I am looking for 14000 by year's end. QE is working:) I will ride SPY for...

It is amazing that you select a smal cap stock where a method works after numerous optimizations and you want me to take you seriously. I suspect you do not even know that the short positions your system executed and contribute to your hypothetical profits cannot be entered possibly in real...

Numbers and source please.

Why? RTM trading is only a small part of the total. Most trade directionally, along the trend. Actually, RTM trading is very risky IMO. Especially in the era of QE(n). If you trade large size for a few ticks and you don't do that along the trend, one day you will be ruined I guarantee that...

You could just combine the strategies into one using OR statements and get over with it. Make sure you allow multiple positions.

Tradestation is a tool for newbies. If you are an advanced trader who makes money you can afford to hire a programmer and develop custom code, backtesting, FIX, etc. Why in the world would anyone in the right state of mind implement an edge of any kind in a system out of his control? Which maybe...

This is a fallacious statement. "System" already includes money management. There is no such a thing as a "system" without money management. Money management is a set of rules to prevent ruin and maybe to inrease returns. Money management without an edge of some kind is useless. I think...

There is no hope for you. Plonk

No, this is a bad assumption. Never use it. Again no. The real issue here is cost of tick data. If I want to test an algorithm in all stocks in NASDAQ 100 I must spend a fortune in data. Anyway, the issue with the TS2000i software AFAIK was that it did not execute stop-losses on entry...

This is a warning of how whole countries will be turned into pie charts and accounting statements in the near future. Numbers over peoples and lives. It is coming to every theater near you.

No, this is your error; the $300 is the max amount you can lose so that your persent risk remains at 1% or below. How many shares you buy depends on your available bankroll and stop loss. The equations used are very simple. See this reference for example: http://tinyurl.com/2c2gzq6

Also, I bet you are not capitalized properly to execute a trend following strategy efficiently.

He'll find out the hard way. Be sure about that. He's been tweeking those parameters in permute mode for a week now.:)

Yep, it is clear you have no clue what allocation means, that Vince did not answer your question and that you did not make your question clear but you think Vince was closer anyway. Bye

Better donate your money to charity if youy are going to trade with MACD and RSI or any of that stuff. Otherwise the money will go to the pocket of your broker who drives a maserati to work and pays for $2000 an hour hookers.

Is it true that the developers of Multicharts also developed TS somewhere in Russia? I think I heard that some place. It may not be right though.

I think you are off.

Note that I did not include trend-following because it can be done with simple indicators. Trend-following success does not depend so much on method as much it depends on discipline and MM. How would I know if you succeeded? You cannot trade stochastic processes with deterministic lagging...
