I was suggesting that assembling a system from
a group of items with good stats is likely to produce better results
than a system composed of items with poor stats. Would you agree?
ztrader,
Did you read the below quote from Joe Duffy's post last night?? It
disagrees with your above statement. You are always looking for proof through
statistics and his point has always been that the proof is in his brokerage
statement each month. How about giving us an idea on what you're thinking
about once the opening bell is rung in the A.M.?? I take it from your past
posts that you start each day with no bias. So what kind of price action are
you looking for to get the trigger finger ready??

And similarly when testing two systems that work, you put them together
thinking maybe you will improve the results, but most of the time the
results get worse. Similarly two components that are not that great
on their own
can yield a decent result when used together.
Thats why do not throw out your ideas that don't test that well. A couple
ideas that dont test very well can sometimes do better together then two
ideas that do test well.
Almost everything about building a system is counter intuitive including
stuff like this.
