Sorry,...Ok, here goes:
Push a button and your computer
determines the scaling
and trading technique and then
writes the Easy Language
for you. ;)

Some algorithms may auto-determine
size modulation for you. The algorithm
determines the optimum location to adjust
sizing to target a single market or portfolio
utility or fitness function, like
Sharpe, and then autodesigns scaling
and entry tactics together, essentially "reversing" the problem
converging to a stochastic solution and writing the code.
Scaling may be curve fit as easily as entry location,
choice of markets in portfolio, stops, etc.,
so take proper steps to avoid over fit in your models.

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?

Subject: Scaling out
with all that said, i would ask if anyone has a simple example of an exit
for scaling out.
You probably can't find it because it generally isn't a good thing to
do. This was discussed on this list this past July under the heading
"Bet sizing question: Scaling". My answer is here:
