Guys, there are too many complaints and provocations here, it seem to me that this will lead to anything useful. I will close the thread for now, to prevent eventual arguments. Then we will see.
Ok guys, i have re-opened the tread! If @baruchs and others are still interested in, I hope this thread can evolve in a positive way, otherways this will be closed again and permanently, if not deleted completely.
Thanks.
I don't understand the question, the question isn't complete with the details needed. well, i guess i would agree that Forward testing is the only way. But i might say that you are the only one that could really answer your question, it is because you are one who would really know if you are earning enough or not. And i believe that you can be a great trader.
Well what I wanted to show here was not how to write or test strategies.
I wanted and hope did show the most important benefit of automatic trading.
Which is to combine several strategies/instruments/timeframes.
I showed that combining even a losing strategy to a winning one can improve the result.
This does not say that if someone has a losing strategy or even 100 losing strategies he is half way to being a profitable trader. It is not an advice to add a losing strategy to a basket. Its just to show that a basket is a way to go.
There may be very good discretionary traders, but they can not trade a basket or a big enough basket, and I believe that this is the biggest advantage of automation.
I know that I did not convince many of you, but no one showed me where I'm wrong in my logic.
So if I get anyone to think about it is good.
Any way there is nothing else to add on this subject.
