I looked at that system and found the results seemed too good to be
true. With a few of the back tested entries the buy price was set at the
previous days low. If only you could do that...lol.
What you can try is to comment out the section of code that calculates the
stop values and sets the buy/sell prices. Just surround that section of
code with /*...*/. This will cause the system to revert back to the
defaults you have set in the AA/settings. These settings should probably
be set to trade on the open with a one day delay for a more realistic results.
You might want to also comment out the trailing stop as well to get some
sort of baseline results and then look at the trades to see if they make sense.
Once you are comfortable with the simplified version you can try adding
some of the additional features back into the system to see how they
affect results and see if they pass the common sense tests for buys and sells.
My impression is the system does work although it takes too many trades and
runs out of capital because there is way more buy candidates than available
capital. This means it may miss some better buys later down the watch
list. Additional filtering of the possible buy candidates would be
required to fix that problem. Unfortunately that can be a lot of fairly
complicated additional work.
Try some of these suggestions and learn from the experience if you like.
