Jeez what a waste of time. If you have a good entry system (huge IF for most of you), just do the opposite to get out. Barring that, just use parabolic stop or chandelier stop for exit. Done.

So trade the free eod data from yahoo. You can for example use decades of GE data for backtesting (40 years of eod data > 10k data points).

Which circle of Hell did you escape from?

That link you provided is basically an ad for PAL, not an objective evaluation of backtesting. "Any strategy testing you do without PAL is crap.". Yeah, right. :p

Commodity Stocks vs. Commodity ETFs – Which is Better? Commodities can have great trends and represent a diversification alternative for longer term profit opportunities. However, very few individual investors are willing to trade futures, which is traditionally how traders get access to that...

You necromanced a nine-year-old thread just to point to your journal thread. :eek:

True enough.

Thanks for the link. So is it your position that combining discretionary and systematic is superior to either one alone?

Just read this thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?t=236208 I am fascinated by traders with a STEM background (a college degree in science, technology, engineering or mathematics) who decide to go the discretionary route rather than the systematic route. What is it...

You think my comment above was a continuation from last month ... wow. My bad. Let's end the miscommunication : stock777 on ignore.

Unsurprisingly, that doesn't make a bit of sense. Sorry I disturbed your stupor.

LOL. Dude, you're talking to riskarb. :p

No point in arguing with the willfully ignorant, so I'll just state a few facts and drop this subject. You clearly don't know the meaning of immigrant, despite being handed it on a platter. This is what activists with an agenda do: pervert the meaning of commonly accepted words to push...

Show me where I disrespected Native Americans,. This sidetrack is silly. The USA is long recognized worldwide as a legitimate nation, our sordid past notwithstanding. So what exactly is your point?

On this subject you're a complete fool. Here's some knowledge you're clearly too lazy to get for yourself: Immigrant - a person who migrates to another country, usually for permanent residence. I've never migrated anywhere. Neither have most Americans. Ergo we are not immigrants. Nothing...

This is a load of horseshit. America has never been a meritocracy. We were headed there at one time but we've been backsliding ever since Reagan. The C student with rich parents has always had far more opportunities than the A student with poor parents. Race has always mattered in far too many...

Stupid poster. The USA wasn't founded by Native Americans. What was done to Native Americans (and others) was evil but guess what? Nobody is going to unring that bell and dissolve the USA. So get over it. Furthermore I'm not an immigrant. The vast majority of Americans aren't immigrants...

Off topic: No we are not "all immigrants". This "nation of immigrants" meme is a perversion of the definition of 'immigrant' pushed by the pro-immigration activists. No modern nation is a nation of immigrants, not even Israel anymore (it's been three generations since the founding of Israel...

Sounds autobiographical. Don't project your perverted family history on me, sleazebag. Normal guys like me can't even imagine such sickness, much less put it in writing. But you did. Tells me everything about you. I see why you moved to Bangkok aka Ladyboy Central. Which by the way I only know...

And you believe some fucking H-1B will fill that need?!
