There is nothing wrong at all with scaling out of or into positions. But if you do such a thing they should be looked at and analysed as separate systems, and then run in conjunction as part of a portfolio with appropriate position sizing. The question then becomes which portfolio offers the best return/risk :
Portfolio A, B, C, AB, AC, BC or ABC?

do. This was discussed on this list this past July under the heading
"Bet sizing question: Scaling". My answer is here:
