volente,
MAD????I am happy when u r profitable.....every time and sad when not...#1 sell was pretty....#2 sell was pretty.....then the stop loss issue raised it's ugly head unless u broke the rule of never moving stop......your sell entry and my system agreed exactly....also on the #2 except my system didn't tell me the trade was over for sure until 625 when it gave a clear buy signal.........when u develop a rule or system that recognize the reversals or turns as I call them, you will keep a lot more of what you gain........find the move to breakeven point and that will help a lot...the ironclad never moving stop rule is not the best approach....Breakeven might break your heart but never your account....keep trading and talking please.....blackguard ....never will I expose my hand....I will give it to only the close family but the only thing they want to see is money....If I call trades live or dead you will have the goldmine......it is exceeding my greatest expectations....last 8 days final testing without a failure....a failure is a trade that loses money....that should not be a goal as the expectations would be too high for extended time frame....

Hiya porgie without giving away any secrets of your system, what tools do you use for backtesting and where do you get your data?
I've been using wealthlab on Forex data with pretty good success. Finding free data for index futures is hard...
