I had no problem waiting for a few days for profits to materialize, but I think this scalping could be a more profitable strategy for me...
Thanks for no advice under the guise of being "too advanced" while providing no proof of anything you do. Awesome metaphors though!
Your questions make me believe you don't even understand what I'm trying to do. Not to mention the fact that a 30-minute chart is irrelevant to me.
Wouldn't it be easier to show where I couldn't have bought? I could have bought anywhere other than a few spots that didn't get a profit in 30...
I already know my exit on the "P" side. That's why I need backtesting software to play with several variables to find out the best spot to put the...
This is only 30 minutes and you see I would have made a profit at nearly every entry point.
Can you say this more plainly please?
I couldn't possibly test that without backtesting software.
No. By finding an appropriate SL. You must not have understood the post.
Few will understand your post written in plain English? That's actually what I've been doing so far.
The purpose of the post and all the backtesting, etc. is to find how to lose in the most mathematically/statistically correct way possible.

I admit to everyone that scalping is boring. I entered long 5 contracts a while ago at 3849.75. instead of doing my scalping strategy, I put TP at...
Hope? Everything I'm saying is based on probability and math. Did you even read it?
Thanks for posing a problem without a solution. And with a SL, there is a set risk. What's your credentials?
I know that's the flaw. That was the point of my original post. Actually with a 1:20 win:loss ratio, I would break even at 20/21=95.2%. I'm...
I would love to only enter the trade when technicals say so. What would be the indicator that tells me momentum? (I realize I should like a novice...
My strategy doesn't have a defined loss yet, as was mentioned in my post. So far I just hold until I win. I would think having a 2 point: 1 point...
This is the reason I'm searching for a backtesting program as mentioned in...
Is there any software that allows for backtesting if index futures? And any good platforms for algo trading index futures? I've only ever seen it...
