exits v larger stops
Sluggo, Thanks for invaluable piece. What could this look like on an equity curve chart? If the atrs were low and the asset was trading sideways with small declines, a trendster/tt would be stopped out, based on for ex., your current live system's rules.

hardware
Gentlemen,
what type of hardware would you recommend running? is there a requirement for multiple processor motherboards? do you find yourselves upgrading this hardware on a regular basis?
is there a necessity for multiple pc's crushing through numbers?

WORK NOT REQUIRED?
don't think for a minute that this business entails little work. there is constant research and there is no such item as the holy grail trading system.
