    Pullback Entry Strategy

    I have been called of from this postings before but I bleieve that depending on how you define "pullbacks" my example was a valid one. I really have plenty of good examples.

    Is this trading system over optimized?

    Simply test it on 2 more years with the same parameter settings.

    Pullback Entry Strategy

    No problem, I did not struggle and I will stop posting after this. Was fun to do and may be I refered to that other guy who talked about SMA? In any way, I tried several options to improve the results with the SMA, none were really good. BTW, you could ofcourse optimize each symbol for a certain...

    Anyone trading with Advanced Get or TradeGuider?

    If I learn how to use it then why don't they program it in such a way? That does not make sence to me. I sell you a strategy in form of a software that makes money and I will teach you how to use/trade it. If you loose money you have to learn harder? So what good are the entry/exit points if I...

    Pullback Entry Strategy

    So now your reply came quicker then my work that I have done for you. I thought you said that a price is pulling back from a certain level above an SMA. At least that is what your chart was showing. I went throu the effort to change the original system and tried to define the following: If...

    Pullback Entry Strategy

    I guess I misinterpreted your definition. In fact I believe it does not matter where the pullback happened or how far it goes? This pullback goes below some kind of MA, but it could easily be changed to just touch the SMA. So why do you see a difference?

    Pullback Entry Strategy

    Well, if I know how to define a traend and know when it begins and ends then I don't need anything else. :) That is why I like to test on many symbols/markets and a long period and I also like parameter stability. BTW, the system that I refer too in the former postings was published in 5/2001.

    Anyone trading with Advanced Get or TradeGuider?

    I have no personal experience with Advanced GET but a friend tested it for 3 month and told me that the entry and exit points disapear if the prediction was not fullfiled. Anyone can confirm that. If it is so then it is of no use for a trader.

    Pullback Entry Strategy

    Since I like the system and I think the idea deserves more recognition I have tested the system on the 30 stocks that the Dow30 contains. I used daily bars, 5 years of history and 5% of the overall capital for each signal whenever it appeared. My starting capital was $100.000. Attached you find...

    Designing Systems with TradeStation

    I completely agree about the one month period and knowing nothing. But then again as I said in some earlier posts, why not use the FREE version? Or if needed get the 30 day FREE demo and safe 200$ (which is a app. third of the proce for WLD3). And I was a TS user since SystemWriter. Believe me I...

    Easy Language Problem

    Here is your system. You can test on EOD data on one symbol or you can also test it on a portfolio on the same web site. To test it on ID data you would need the desktop software. http://www.wealth-lab.com/cgi-bin/WealthLab.DLL/editsystem?id=24550 Just key in a symbol. Created with drag and drop.

    No more expences like EOD data update? Are you really seriously recommending someone to buy a product that is not supported anymore? Are you trying to sell it on eBay???

    best way to trade multiple markets with TWS

    I always wonder how they handle REAL money mangement on the various orders? Another thing that Iwould not prefer is having one software company depending on another software company. But I guess everyones has his preferences.
