Nice simple example and easy to follow.

It would be nice if slippage and commissions were included in the results tables. They are mentioned in article itself and are covered in the Conclusions table. However, they are omitted in the quarterly total tables which follow.

Wonder if any ET traders are using this system or a similar one and are now sweating bullets because it's been "disclosed"?

Not to worry, seems like this idea has been shown many times here before. I think 40yotrader is using something like this and has been for quite a while. But I think he INCREASES contracts when on a losing streak!

Good luck to all.

Hello Sid,

Again, nice job with the trading system. I would like to see if you have one more piece of information.

If the breakout fails, what happens if you stop and reverse? Basically, instead of just one trade per day, you will have maximum of two trades, one long and one short. If the long is triggered first and then the market reverses and takes out the stop, you will just go net short with the stop where the previous long level was. It will be interesting to see that.

Also, how did the method fare on ES, NQ and ER2 contracts?

I am sorry if it was mentioned in your website and I missed it. In that case, please post the page address.

thanks again,
Maji
