Just look at my post, atticus. I decided I'd like to shut you down if you claim I can't do better than 20:1. I haven't looked at this backtest until I remembered how excited I was when I first saw it, after completing one of my first genetic optimizations.
Now, also, what I've done here is use only the code of the ergodic with no autostops, so I may have posted BS before but if you reference any of my posts I can clear it up for you.
How was that? 200 Profit Factor on QM? I use PFG to trade futures for my CTA.
It's impossible to read, but it shows 0 under PF for short trades, ~6x for long and ~200 for all trades? This is complete BS.

I'll add an EOD Exit, and it should adapt. Stand by once again for that as I modify my code on the fly. Though if it's not any good, I won't report it, but I think it'll be fine.
Sorry, I'll have to save that one for in the morning. As soon as it's earlier than 1:30 I'll be able to produce a backtest in that, in the meantime the swing chart I've been able to code with Proflogic.

You know quoting me before I have a chance to finish my thought isn't very respectful. In the future wait for me to make changes, and have some patience.
I couldn't do that backtest because my clock is later than 1:20 pm, which means the logic I've added to the code for EOD Exits will always send a market order because that is its condition, and if you don't know how to code this you will not be able to produce what I have.

You're using it yet you don't know if it works?
I'm using the manual version.
I have to read the chart and take the trade based on a set of fixed rules. What he is releasing is the version that labels the entries, exits, stops and reversals in real time. The key is that it works exactly like the rules. No subjectivity, just point and shoot.

Well,
I need to think for a second if what I said is right.
...
...
Let's see...is two hundred, two hundred, two hundred, two hundred, two hundred,
greater than twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty?
It is, isn't it? Gee, I guess I should have said it has a profit factor greater than fifty? A hundred? Two Hundred?
That's fair enough, atticus, but the results can be duplicated if your roll is good enough, and you understand the logic, which if you don't read the manual you won't know what you're doing anyway, and probably won't succeed with the indicators.
They call me two hundred.

You hit, "Submit Reply" right? I am supposed to be clairvoyant?
