    Unfortunately not :banghead:.
    I am going back live after labor day.

    However the system is 100% mechanical so the live results are very similar and i had similar results in the past.

  7. CL is just so choppy and wild for me to trade with same "system" I use for ES ot NQ. Have you thought about sim testing your approach on those rather than CL. The swings on CL can be so wild that 2 stop outs can be painful. I know it is attractive with its high value per tick per margin but just a thought...

  8. Hello El OchoCinco,

    You are right, the CL can be a bit wild at times and erratic behavior some days.

    I have seriously thought of moving over to NQ for trading intraday swings. I will be testing my strategy on NQ starting in a few days. I am very interested in the results.
