The 
point is, why develop and optimize an untradable system?? Unless your interest 
is purely academic the whole idea of the development process is to actually 
trade it.

This 
whole thing is a gigantic waste of time.... Pictures of your trades, backtest 
results etc... without sharing the code you are simply teasing us into 
responding to your posts. If the goal is to demonstrate that you can developed a 
winning system then I think everyone here is aware of and embraces the concept. 
If you are simply looking for an "ataboy" then "Ataboy". Lets move 
on

in terms of how one might trade in the real world, but you are not going to 
design & optimize a trading system based on constant dollar trades are 
you ?  especially if that sysem is designed to trade a broad index like 
NDX as represented by QQQ's or for that matter the hundred stocks it 
represents.--- In amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Yuki Taga
