Yes, this is a swing trading system. I have been trading it live for about 7 months now. The live results match the system with negligible slippage. -Raystonn
Stop losses are set according to many factors and are not a set constant dollar amount. They are used to avoid disasters and are not meant to actually be used to exit 99.9% of trades, whether they are winners or losers. -Raystonn
Profit targets aren't used either. We gain or lose what the market has to offer, not an arbitrarily predetermined amount. -Raystonn
I ran backtests on these symbols many months ago successfully. I just did it again to make sure I was completely accurate in this journal. My system is profitable with a nice smooth equity curve in EMD, ER2, NQ, ES, and YM. I choose EMD because it currently offers the best performance per risk. This is not a system I came up with by having my servers optimize 20 parameters to fit the system to a curve. This is a system I came up with the good old fashioned way; through a great deal of time and effort researching my ideas. -Raystonn
Raystonn, Congrats, your results holding up on other unrelated instruments is a really good sign. Good luck
So give an example of an average stop ? I would imagine they are quite wide as little as the system actually trades. On that 8 contract trade, what was the stop at as a % of the account ?
Leave this guy alone and give his system a chance to prove itself publically. Not his fault 99.99% of systems published at C2 are garbage.
