Re: Asking too much ??

A lot of people can develop systems like that:  retrospective results can be
outstanding but will almost always fall apart or be *much* less in
prospective real time trading.  I'm sure we all know this, but unrealistic
claims need a dose of reality splashed upon them.

John Ehlers claims to be selling a system that makes a lot more than 100
percent per year on capital, even if you factor in commission and slippage,
which he didn't.

He recommends that with this system, you trade a full S&P contract with a
$25,000 account.

Would anyone care to assess the reality of these claims?
