I also have tried thousandsand thousands of things that do not work, but it'is the hard point of the research.
BUT, but, but, but, I have found some dozens of trading systems that really worked and continued to work until now ( from years 93-95).
I do not use them anymore because of the Safir-X software that does in one day what I could have done in ten years before turning definitively crazy ( I stopped before).
And as it does better than me and without pain, I would be stupid tocontinue dto develop classical trading systems now.
Believe me or not, the future is there, and you have not yet seen all the picture.
So, I'll put on my web site half a dozen of these trading systems, next week I hope.
They were profitable on the CAC40 futures and DAX futures, FTSE too, intraday 30 min
With some parameter changes they should work on other markets.
It's up to you to try, and it's free as anyrthing that I put on my web site.
Useless to say that without TradeStation, these system wuld never have been develped and tested.
Yes it's feasible with other tools, but if I need to spend 10 more times to reinvent the wheel.
For sure I would have given up far before completing the research!
Sincerely,
