Ah, I see the Krieger marketing machine is still alive and well. :-)

Astute system traders will have no problem seeing the fallacy in those
numbers. No doubt he's using the built-in stops (problem 1 - # bars in
losers = 1) and his average trade is one SP point (problem 2). Subtract
reasonable slippage and commission from the average trade and you
get..... To quote Monty Python, "run away, run away."
