nature. One thing you might want to consider is getting a copy of Resampling

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I am currently engaged in research in this and
closely related areas, specifically the performance analysis of trading systems.
I've certainly considered writing software to do the sort of thing you describe,
but the market is pretty limited. If you can come up with a clear and coherent
set of technical requirements for such a package, I might be willing to take it
on as a contract job. One thing that would be necessary is a complete
description of the trading system involved, suitable for simulation. This
specification must include how to deal with rollovers and limit days in the case
of futures; profit/loss values obtained from, say, Tradestation run against
continuously linked contracts patched together from the front months are
worthless, as are simulations that assume you could get out of a position when
the market was locked limit against you.</FONT></DIV>

simulations<BR><BR></DIV></FONT>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Does anybody know of monte carlo simulation software (how
to program) for excel where you can program the distribution of winners and
losers and their R multiples? In addition can it handle different
schemes for betting a certain percentage with core equity as oppossed to
being more aggressive with market's money( ie. betting closer to kelly
formula)? Is there a good book on this subject?</FONT></DIV>

If you are good at role playing, it will help, making it a little cheaper.
Not theoretical evaluation of how you'd feel or hindsight of what you
gonna do.
