Now realize that by MM you probably meant
Money Management. So you probably used an equal allocation to every trade. Number
of live trades is now another constraint.

<span

decide which
is better.  The figures are for 1.00 
Lots per
trade with no MM.  I don't know which 
would give
better results with MM.  Here are some 
sample
figures for A, B and C: 

<span
>%Profit         
A) 48     B) 65    C) 80 
#Trades        
A) 12     B) 18    C) 25 
#W/#L         
A) 1.87  B) 1.98  C) 2.79 
%Prof/Trade
A) 4.00  B) 3.51  C) 3.21 
%Prof/Day   
A) 1.49  B) 2.01  C) 2.50 

<span
>What's more important in the long run? Making more

money per
trading day (1 week=5days)?  Making more 
money per
trade with less trades?  The better W/L 
ratio? 
Something else?
