Hi ASX.G,


Thanks for your comments.


What does MFE mean?

I assume some sort of return?


Anyway, yeah it seems like a good idea to increase win% and potentially decrease longest string of losses, therefore minimising drawdowns.


Profit giveback is painful but for trend followers its part and parcel of the game. Curtis Faith speaks about is in his book about how the hardest part of trading were the exits. Sometimes you have to watch 100% profits halve before they go up again (or hit your exit).


And tech, what do you mean introduce a trailing stop after X periods?

Couldnt the trailing stop be the exit and this is in place from the very beginning.
