True. But like any tool, backtesting is only as good as the practitioner e.g., an amateur will use optimization to curve fit his system to the...
Jack and the A Team BEG for those demands by constantly making wild, unsubstantiated claims of trading prowess while offering no proof, other than...
Troll magnet? You bring opposing views on yourself by pretending to dismiss valid concepts out of wisdom, when in fact you do it out of...
The only point you made is that you don't understand backtesting. Done intelligently, one can quantify and objectively compare and contrast...
I see you're adding conditions after the fact again. Every rule increases the fit of the system to the data. And entering mid-bar is NOT in the...
I didn't expect a substantive reply. So go ahead, run away and increase your balance sheet. LOL. As for me and the others re: hedgefunds, we...
Oddi, Appreciate your offer but no thanks. You, Hershey, and the rest of the A Team have zero credibility with me so I'm not inclined to waste...
