[USER=13908]@peter2[/USER] you are absolutely correct on every point you have mentioned. With all trading systems, I've always found that it takes time for them to develop into profits no matter how good a system backtests.


Trading systems aren’t perfect

But that's really not the point. Trading systems "just need to be useful” over time.


Trading is a slow process when safety is your main concern

Confidence in your own work goes a long way in helping you trade through a series of drawdowns. System trading's main advantage is that it has mathematically defined “precise” entry & exit points deciding what to "trade" when to "buy" & when to "sell". Meaning there is never any pressure to make judgment calls.
