John, i think this is wrong. you don't need 100 trades to see if a system works or is stable. for example some trend-following systems applied to the treasury future 10yr daily data for the past 15 years have only 15 closed trades. Is this a weak system? I
don't think so because one key element to profits is commision, so keep them low.

Your number of tests are statistically  insignificant and therefore useless in determining the worth of your system.  Show me a report with at least 100 trades that have occurred in both up and down  markets.
