    Need performance opinion

    You're right... to double slippage, not commission costs. Mistake :) Do you have RINA Portfolio Evaluator software? It can help you in developing good "portfolio of systems".

    Need performance opinion

    Of course real slippage costs will be known only in real trading. But I strongly suggest you to improve avg trade profit. It is always a good idea to double realistic slippage costs and see then how system works. Your system with 2x slippage will have no profit. Another thing I suggest is...

    Need performance opinion

    Commission & slippage costs (10k) too high in relation to Net Profit (18k). You must improve Avg trade profit/loss. The positive thing is small worst drawdown (2,3k) in relation to Net Profit. Nice profit factor 2.58 (0.58 is a mistake, i guess) You can improve annual rate of return by...

    Nikkei Tanking

    man, nothing strange here. According to http://people.internet2.edu/~shalunov/stock-market/ the real U.S. GDP growth in 1929-2002 period was 3.33% p.a. almost the same as real S&P growth. Of course when you add taxes, commissions & slippage costs, return on stocks can be much lower. Japanese...

    Nikkei Tanking

    According to my calculations S&P 500 index real return per year is 3.61% from 1950 to present. I wonder what's the real return for Nikkei 225 and German DAX :D

    Nikkei Tanking

    Yes, Nikkei is tanking and probably the worst is yet to come. Look at U.S. stock index, Dow Jones Ind. Average. The average return per year adj. for inflation is only 2.738% in 1913 - 2002 period. From 1913 to 1982 there was no real growth :eek: If DJIA will fall to 5,300 there will be zero...

    Morality, trading, and the war.

    It's a zero sum game, some traders have to be, (and they will be) on the short side of the market. There's nothing wrong with that, imo. They can be speculators, they can be hedgers or arbs. If you're not going to short, someone else will do it. This game is only about making money.
