Nice record for such a simple system. :)
Since this is a breakout system, it may be more realistic to add a factor
for slippage (and commish). For starters: $100.
Did you run this on a continuous contract that is back adjusted,
or just has the front months pasted together?
I don't know what the "trailing stop" will do for you on this day only
system, unless you use intraday (say 5 min. bar) data.
