david,

Without putting up a chart and looking at your parameters, my first reaction is the .25 stop is way too tight....heck, the spread is sometimes as much as .75. I think you are going to have to widen that considerably.

Secondly, it would make lots of sense to backtest it either via one of the software programs or excel.

Sorry if this is doubling up anyone else's points...I am just working my way through all the posts for the last hour or so.....
