My point was just to show to those who still struggle,that it could be changed at any time to start learning the proper things,and drop 'backtest' improper, they are still around and about.

Quote from bone:

One day of data, with no drawdowns and no losers, using SIM data but you say you were concerned about reality but when presented with reality you said never mind. And you have the world's best performing system and the very first absolute in trading. But you don't want to be bothered with scraping together a couple thou and trading it for yourself because compounding is troublesome and not worth it.

This website is really going to hell. Are there no professionals left who do this for a living ?



What gives some of these guys away is that even the best technician is going to eventually buy the top or sell the bottom. There is no way any trader is going to be 100% correct. The real question is, when you do buy the top or sell the bottom, what is the trader going to do about it?

I never said it was easy,but possible to be 100% with the entries.And yes,there is the absolute in trading.It takes a lot if attention and you have to be alerted at all times,that is true.I can reduce the amount of trade when I trade real money,say I sim 300 trades a week,then I trade 30 trades a week with real money.Like in sport, in boxing you spare (sim) with the partner for 5 minutes per round instead of the real 3,then when fighting you do not notice as the time goes by.

When you happen to buy at the top or sell at the bottom just scratch with little or no loss and move on.

Displaying the commish in blotter looks peculiarly.
