Quote from Neodude:

hmmm, so you are making $1750 from 70 trades and losing $1500 from 30 trades out of 100, with a profit of $250 total? Any idea how your commissions are going to effect this?

Commissions are free on the SIM...
 
As I said, I trail the stop. I've only hit the max loss of 10 points twice. Usually it's 6-7 points loss.

If I didn't trail the stop, my hit rate would probably increase to closer to 80% but I haven't tried it that way yet.

I do in fact take commissions into account. And yes, the commissions are a significant fraction of the expenses for this system. I didn't say I liked it, I'm just trying out some concepts.

The bigger question is what kind of fills I'll get using live ammo.

Quote from EqtTrdr:

wonder how much they are going to gap the futures up again overnight for no apparent reason???
Isnt that a high probability trade only when the futures all end at the lows of the day?
 
What about when you have a late day reversal? Shorts caught with too little time to cover and have to cover the next day...
