Thanks Richard. I'm familar with the system results, I guess I was confused between the difference of back testing and system testing. I thought they were one in the same. I assume that back testing is simply looking back in time to how the price/indicators visually appeared? If so then without a result screen how would you anticipate commision and slippage? Or even drawdown? Or how the system did in the past 20 years? Do you use the system result screen when you develop or tweak? I use SuperCharts with data from Q+ and thought maybe I missed something in Q+. Hey, post anything you think is relevant! I'll look forward to seeing one of your system result screens if you get the time. Thanks.
