Dom,
Of course that depends on the skill of the trader and his risk profile but
let us assume the trader is satisfied with one point per trade. using my
simple entry and stop loss rules,the trader would have had 14 profitable
trades of one point and no losses. So $14,000.00 profit on an average
investment of about $52,000.00. That is the magic of short term trading and
having prior knowledge of the turns. (Entry rule is 1/8 above the previous
day's high or 1/8 below the previous day's low. Stop loss rule is 1/8 beyond
the opposite extreme of the entry.)
