DT,

I keep asking the same question with regards to your posts like this, 
but I don't think they're reaching your mailbox.

Why have you picked 1/2000 as the date to optimize forward from ?  
Don't you think this is somewhat dangerous to optimize since slightly 
before the beginning of the current bear market as many traders would 
have after the fact found it dangerous in the very late 90's to 
optimize over the last several years of the bull at that time ?  To 
me this is an accident waiting to happen.  I don't understand how it 
could be otherwise.

Please explain your thinking in this regard.
