Update - of my Hybrid StrategyBull Markets
Getting into a trend is easier than most traders think especially in a Bull Market (last year was rip snorter). Timing the exit is another matter, that takes finesse. Any trader who is not rolling in it at the moment should be re-evaluating their strategy to understand why they missed a great trading opportunity. Sure, I'll be first to admit trading was bumpy at times in the last 12 months but a stalestop eliminates this stress. Winners don't seem to carry the same stress as losing trades. Weekly re-balancing of my position-sizing is another of my personal favourites by putting every dollar to work (soldiers should be out there fighting the good fight not laying idle in the barracks)
Might be worth specifying standard commissions per trade and slippage for people to apply if sharing qldfrog. For example, I'm trading with CMC with max $11 commissions, and apply 1.5% slippage for buy and sell. Its surprising how even these mild but hopefully realistic handicaps can change a smooth equity curve to more realistic obstacle course

That was the idea but only if you want to,You've called me out so I guess I have too now, haha.
I will try and post something on the weekend.
The rules:
Portfolio size $100k
Positions 20
Realm: All Ordinaries (XAO)
Post it anyway .. Be a rebel !!!! .... I'm feeling like this forum needs a shakeup in MAE/MFE
Sorry to deviate a bit but why don't you participate in the Opening auction to mitigate your slippage Newt? I just set a LMT order the night before (to sell) 5-10% below the closing price, then you get the opening price, i don't have any slippage issues.
Please post but highlight the daily factor, and whatever other specificsThat's a shame, I'm living trading a daily swing system but it uses a 20% position size so only max of 5 positions. Would like to post the results but doesn't meet your rules so I guess I'm out
