I enjoy your commentary and sometimes I get ideas from what you write. So, thanks for writing :) All around nice commentary on the current market environment. However, I disagree with your view on BoJ guardians. Imo, they are acting in a very smart way by coming out verbally whenever u/j...

great trade! I think there is still more room for short.

You are correct. OandA doesn't work with NT. Sorry for that suggestion. Also, I agree with your assertion that there are "fundamental problems with backtesting". Having said that, there is no way you can test a strategy and can have confidence in it if the historical data used to develop the...

No, this just proves that the data on which backtesting is being done is completely screwed up. I think this experience should be enough to clearly demonstrate that MB Trading is a bad choice. Move to OandA - use their data for backtesting - and your backtested numbers will bear resembalance...

Thanks a lot. Upon reading the article, it seems that I already have developed a variant of this strategy. Still, thanks again!

Thanks for advice but my point is - Maybe this system does not work, but I might just get some ideas from this system and tweak them to make it work. It obviously generated quite some interest when it was mentioned here on ET. So, at least some ideas might be worthwhile. I would really...

Good post and apparently I agree with everything you said :) IMO, multicharts is a good platform to start basic strategy work. Other good starter level tool is excel. Tradingblox is another good platform. Once you start to push the boundaries of these platforms, you graduate to Matlab. IMO...

0007Arb - you are correct. Thanks. I just wrote my experiences while trying to become a systematic trader. I do trade discretionarily + systematic.

Another important point. I am convinced every wannabe trader upon think deeply about themselves will realize that they are actually getting what they truly want from the markets. Neke wants excitement and mass-following by betting big, Lescor wants silent money and success, Frosty wants to...

There are multiple steps that are needed for anyone to move over from the side of losing money to making money. This will be a very short thread from my side, I will write them down here real quick my observations and leave after that. 1. Get a working system - Could be v. simple as a moving...

Hey Frost, Nice journal you have here! So, you say you have been developing trading systems from 2003 onwards thats like almost 10 years. But are you saying you still after 10 years, dont have any profitable system that is tradeable due to all systems having large DDs? If this is the case...

seems now we have....ES breached its low by 1 tick and NQ couldn't breach its low. Long long long now.

The link to the website doesn't work. In fact website is defunct. Can anyone please explain clearly what this system was about? Thanks.

out for -1.5

nice chart thanks.

fat finger...wanted to be short now short at 1361.25

long 1362.

out 1364...nice trade Dan.

long 62.75, price action seems powerful enough to change my view.
