<DIV><SPAN class=920432201-24021999><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2>That's
what I like about your system. Makes a lot more sense than ours,
IMHO. You have price targets and stops which effectively manage your trade
for you. OTOH, our system just calls the next turn in the market, either
up or down, and we play the probability that we're right 75% of the time in
calling the trade correctly. We have no idea where we're going ;) or where
we'll end up. By adding some of your approach, we might be able to exit
certain trades earlier with more profit.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=920432201-24021999><FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial size=2>Good
luck with your positions. We're still long the S&Ps at 1244.
Maybe we'll see new highs everywhere before the next turn. Our
intermediate signal has been bullish since 10/1/98 (S&Ps @994). Even
for our system, that's a long time. Almost like long term capital
gains. :)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2> Not a bad day
<G>. I wasn't surprised when my buy stop for CSCO was hit at 98
5/8, but I was definitely surprised when my buy stop on AOL was hit at 165
1/8. That was 5 points above Friday's close so I didn't even send the
AOL chart out Saturday. Then it went on and gained another 8 points
after it hit my buy stop. Talk about momentum! </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2> HD didn't hit my

going to cancel my GTC buy stop on HD and buy WMT in the morning

I'm just starting with VB myself. My system is running under Clipper and
with Excel. Now I want to add the file handling and misc. other features.

Not that Equis will be very happy about the trend of this thread, but
...
Does anyone have an example of a simple system developed in VB or Excel,
that would generate at least some of the basic performance measures?:
number of trades, % winners, average win, etc.
Cheers,
