thanks for the advice Super.
You know ever since I've begun to get a little "tricky" with my
coding by including formula calls I've lost total confidence with my
systems tester results. Not that I'm a fancy coder but since reading
Roy's newsletter I've tried some advanced coding (advanced compared
to my previous experience) but the system tester just doesn't
produce what I "see" on the charts.
I'm going to have to resort to what others call "butt time" and
paper trade and eye ball over selected periods to determine my
trading performance.
Haven't ever looked at Tradesim, may have to put that on my list as
I work through my stategy.
