energetic Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 any back test results ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
⭐ osijek1289 Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) Backtest results would be interesting. The URLs off their home page aren't working, which I suspect is due to the globe-wide GoDaddy outage. I thought it was interesting that the smallish FLV video on the homepage talks about an autotrader making $1500/month - that is actually quite small for an autotrader that presumably looks for (futures) trades every day, or, there are many losing trades thereby wiping out profits, and potentially giving losing months along the way too - I am thinking mostly of CL when I say that, and perhaps that's not what the $1500/month references - to get that amount with crude, there would likely be some biggish loser days, which would be quite disconcerting to anyone with a < $10-15k account. EDIT UPDATE: OK, I see the scalp/swing/daytrade specific URLs that link off the above site are back online now. But, the guy's not updated the blog/examples in 2 years. Very unimpressive, and at minimum indiciative of 1) extreme laziness 2) complacency and/or 3) trading failure. That aside, what is there, is hardly impressive: entries, if wrong, with what look like big SLs, could be costly, to a real $CL trader. IMHO, there's little overall impressive with this outfit, and I'd not expect much from the strategies. And BTW, if you've never traded $CL, it can quickly become an account killer. Things like time of day for entries are incredibly important, ie., oil pit hours volatility can be huge; frankly, I can't imagine putting any automated strategy on $CL, unless you've got a mid 5-figure account size. I'd just googled reviews for this site and there seems to be a fair amount of negativity on much of what it offers. I won't document any of that here, as we presumably wait for john.maddog's magic. :) Edited September 11, 2012 by osijek1289 tradernate and reflam 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pequemec Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 This is my first post. Hello everyone and please do not ignore me. I am looking the strategy settings they do you can obtain the results as impressive as those published here: h77p://www.schooloftr@de-review-@[email protected]/ Strategy settings (date 06.27.2012) do not work well. Can someone post current settings? Cheers .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omaron Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 if you need to change the settings every couple months means the system sucks and is curve fitted (optimized for current market conditions which you will never know when changed..)

⭐ osijek1289 Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 @omaron is right. IMO the systems here have worked because the markets were more or less ranging during those months. Yes, that is what markets do, much of the time. BUT, things like CL can and do drop from $115 straight to $100. They then consolidate. Then, another drop from the $90's to $~75, as happened this year. I don't see results for those periods on that page (I did not dig deeper admittedly). Some strategies can do well in ranging markets, but when 10%, 20% corrections happen, or news bombs occur, many can't adapt. And the stoploss potential can be big. The other thing I don't see mentioned is account size to trade CL, GC or even TF. Minimum to carry a position overnight - which these strategies very likely need to do - is $4.5 to $5.6, per contract. If it is in drawdown, that is an additional account drain. IMO, one can't dream of trading any of these with less than $10k per 1 lot. Many of these factors aren't considered in backtesting. Also, what about your N!njatrader integrity, ie., power to your PC, VPS, likelihood of the session not crashing, and being on for months and months and months. And, what if you do have to exit NT and restart? Does one know what the strategy will do with a position? But, when one has real money on the line, it is difficult to see drawdowns of over $1000, not knowing where or when a stoploss or trade exit will be taken by the strategy, and then seeing your account down by 10%+, and expecting the strategy to fix it. In short, it is difficult to explain this, until you put real money down, and then you through a very slow and mind-numbing nail-biting period, watch your money controlled by something you basically have no confidence in, or knowledge about how it works. Throw in news bombs, shakeouts, time-of-day events, and, the reality is few can handle watching their account get thrashed. ⭐ Meow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pequemec Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 If someone is kind enough to post the settings for various periods for could to analyze the robustness of the parameters used and which ones are amending. This would help when making our backtest and walk-forward analysis. Thx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
