Analysis
Ben,Are you stating that you have never seen the
results of systems that can do this ? or that you've never seen the code
for systems that can do this ? If it's the former then have another
look at the equity chart I posted for the main system I do trade.

AB reports as MaxDD what is the MaxDD for one stock trade and although in
some way this may be useful information it overstates what MaxDD is for
the account. Beyond this though and given what information is
available in the detailed report trading only one stock, it would not be
possible to export all the trades for multiple stocks and get a semi clear
picture of what Returns or MaxDD for the system is. This would have
to be done using a different methodology, probably utilizing an
exploration.> > <<...>>
