I have tried to keep to the minimum essentials of what any profitable method must do. If you mean the phrasing of the question, maybe that could stand some improvement.Quote from OddTrader:
My 2 cents:
Probably, basically you would never get the right answers you want (based on what I guess) by repeating the same (misleading) question above, it is simply because the question (and its assertions) itself is problematic.
First at all, you have established a model of a trading method, and you want others to follow your model without knowing the model by itself is questionable. And looks like you don't want anything deviated from the model by constantly tightening, rather than relaxing, the requirements of the model.
Second, a good model imo needs to consider both the market conditions and our corresponding actions. That means your model would be far too simple to simulate the reality of trading (whether profitable or or).
I think we may not like others' studies/ papers for many personal reasons, but learning something with an open mind about what others have (rightly or wrongly) done in order to improve our knowledge cannot be bad.
Third, even if it is only a component model of the whole model with a bigger picture. (That is not what you expect, it seems to me.) You then need to specify the scope and its delimiting clearly for discussion.
Forth, the model imo lacks some fundamental premises of trading for profits, and therefore it cannot be evaluated as a whole model. I guess this alone would be the most serious problem you need to think about to start again.
Fifth, ...
So on and so forth.
Perhaps you would need to review/ redesign/ refine the model in order to get better results in the future. There is no free lunch, Yet.
I'm only a newbie in trading, but I believe my experience learned and mistakes made so far would be good enough to present my views mentioned above for your consideration, whether to stick with the same model/ question/ assertions or not.
Good luck, always!

Senor, you know that we're traders, we keep posting here mainly for entertainment.
So... it's like.... ummm... masteurbation???
:eek:As you have already known/ traded so many profitable methods/ systems/ models before coming up this question, obviously your decisions and modelling skills must be very sound.
That implies any extra input to your question would provide only little value incrementally to your knowledge.
Perhaps you should teach us more often, instead of asking us.

We can stop this thread now; we broke all the records and past the 100 pages. The goal has been reached.
Or was there another reason for this thread?
At least there's free donuts.
