Question about selling a strategy

Have been forward testing it since mid April, and so far it has netted a profit of $6290 after commission trading 1 contract per trade. The strategy can be scaled up, have tested as many as 20-100 contracts per trade.

If you try in real trading the $6290 will turn to a -$6290 loss. because they are waiting for you with open arms.
 
After 1 month, I got one system that works on energy futures in 1 min timeframe, and thats due to a lucky break me catching it in the middle of the generation build.

How did you catch it? Did you throw a fish hook in the build?

Cut the bull and never, I mean never, come here to claim you have a 1 min timeframe energy futures systems that works. Energy is a discretionary trading market with big fish that will eat your hooks for breakfast you trader wannabe ...

I wonder how nodoji plans to automate her system, she prolly have to use some advance pattern recognition for the setups she use.

After months of work and trial and error, I discovered that the only way to automate my system was to develop a label for each discrete bit of price action, then apply rules based on scenarios under certain conditions (filters). By the time I finished all the labels, I realized that I'd pretty much written something akin to Brooks' Reading Price Charts Bar By Bar, only mine was more complicated because I utilize the price action of multiple charts.

In a nutshell, I have a name for every bar on a chart and someone were to say the name to me in the absence of a chart, I could see in my mind the context leading into that particular price bar - I'd know the bar interval, whether price was trending, ranging or consolidating, the direction of price movement, the risk/reward parameters of a trade signal based on the price action at that moment in time and the type of entry method required if a signal occurred.

It turned out to be a little more complicated than "sell when overbought" and "buy when oversold" :cool:

So what you seem to be insinuating is that the big fish trade in a way that forms the same sorts of price footprints on a 1-min chart over and over again day after day (for at least the 4 years I've been trading energy futures) until they see Adrian start trading and then they all shake it up just to screw him and his system.

Hmmm...I don't see any evidence of standard 1-min price action changing much from day to day.

True I'm a relatively new trader. But thankfully Im profitable. Thanks should be given to this forum for pointing me in the right direction.
For CL and NG i think its quite the opposite to what you said, it moves so fast that most discretionary trader will have problem reacting. And to me its very asymetrical for short and longs. The only discretionary trading that i do on CL is fading the wed inv report, which is based on NoDojis rule.

I was in the middle of a generation build from gp, on the 6th or 7th generation I noticed a particulary infresting population with strong statistical corellation in both IS and OOS but low net profit. I took a peek and refined that signal. I got lucky because it was dropped from the final generation population and if by chance I hadnt looked at that specific gen pop I wouldnt be aware of that PA property.

NICE.

Another way is that you know you can use ML neural net or SVM to train a 20 bar period from 100 sample doji pattern A. Because i imagine using > , < and = will be quite cumbersome for some complex pattern like head and shoulders or etc.

I wonder, where did you get that I said that? It's simply amazing. You almost wrote a half page of things that I never said.

Hmmm...I don't see any evidence of standard 1-min price action changing much from day to day.

Is there a "standard" and a "non standard" price action? Haven't you gotten tired of this BS? When you or the other guy get in, "standard" price action will go against you? What don't you understand exactly?

The only reason I can think of that some may argue one can make money in 1M timeframe in energy or forex or in stocks or anywhere is because they are addicted to this game .

Look how many spelling errors you have in this paragraph only

- particulary
- infresting
- corellation
- hadnt
- wouldnt

A PhD in EE who does not know how to spell correlation. And you want us to take you seriously? And besides the spelling errors and the lack of knowledge of using a spell checker (available for free with most browsers) you claim to use gp and you catch generations on the fly? My friend here is on the floor laughing. His gp does 10,000 generations a second. He couldn't catch one even if he wanted.

Do you really think anyone buys this BS here? No more BS please, no more....Aren't you tired people?
