If the stock had lost a third since April there is a high chance you wouldn't have been in the trade at the time it dropped 15 %.

Duc your concentrating on outliers
Your making generalisations
Well designed systems will survive outliers.

TechTrader missed the 2008 melt down although not at
It's highest open profit I closed out completely with enough
To buy a house 3 mths before it crashed
90 % of positions closed out on rules in the system. With only one open
And 7 yrs of live trading on the Chartist I decided I'd had enough.

On diversification
I now mainly trade DAX and FTSE Futures
I can control $100's of 1000s of Stock in one contract
I can trade long and short.

This what I was alluding to in the thread.

Much more coming on the topic of Systems development.
But not here.
