GeneH,

With all due respect, I don't know how you can run "...real world "out of sample" results' with historical data if there is no "out of sample" historical data.

In other words, who is to be the judge of the proper time period to use? I'm sure you could find some period of time that will lead to horrendous results, just as you could find some period of time that will lead to outstanding results and none of the results would be relevant anyway.

I think I have suggested many times in the thread, that the actual percentage results of optimizing the stock really aren't that important. I mean they are only important for finding what the current parameters should be, and not what the actual results turn out to be from the result of the optimization process.

Again......X_DEV is a tool for helping a trader find the best next buy or sell targets, based on the time frame he likes to trade in, and the amount of money he has made available for the play, so that over time he can achieve better results than he would have if he didn't use the X_DEV system. Nothing more, nothing less. If a trader has a system that helps him find great trades to profit from, then he will be happy!

My only claim is I think I have developed a system that will make traders happy. smile
