    i cant stop winning

    Do ES. It is liquid and makes money every day. Quietly look at several bar durations. To make this reponse more helpful I will suggest one to look at. If i didn't you would actually choose one to focus upon. Do the 5 min. Only use price and volume. See that the days go by in a...

    How much backtesting?

    Do random trades and consecutive trades in two separate back tests. If and when your tests for statistical sig between the two fail, then you have enough of a sample. The minimum sample size is the sum of the two runs. Differing algorithms require different sample sizes.

    I disagree with this assertion as well. Personally I would like to see a list of systems, their key principles and the drawdown quantification for them. It is very important to know why people do the work they do and how they get to the conclusions that they do. From what I have seen the...

    Anything better than Stochastics???

    50 Day Moving Average Again

    If a person is a trend trader and happens to use signals from MA indictors, the person gives up much of the maoney making potential right from the get go. You suggest that "whipsawing" is also part of your picture. This puts you in a place where apparently the MA signals you are using for...
