Bob,
The QQQ system I posted aways back was as I stated at the time
overtweaked and probably not tradable i.e. I don't trade it, never
did. Nobody on the planet I know trades the QQQ's fully invested
w/3% DD's. The equity curve I attached tonight and have used in
previous posts is of a system that I trade using MF's day in and day
out.
