That's all well and good, but as you know if you've really done this TA thing, a system and someone's real-life results don't always match. I am confused. What are you wanting??? To share results of systems or compare how much money everyone is making?? I personally couldn't describe my system as its constantly evolving and I haven't settled on anything that I use consistently and repeatably. I did make over 40% in less than 6 months in the second half on 1997 when I started trading with real money. Using various QP2 scans and then DNS and StochRSI(14). I don't see what value this adds. Maybe you can explain. Sean

I have given information in previous posts about my results... are others really unwilling to? I suspect that many people try more than one system and are not as careful as you to really know how they did. I know of one person that has published a system on these threads that is as methodical as you. He has had fantastic results with real money over a good time frame. Others have used his system and done well. I tried it and had poor results. Is his system at fault? Money management. Choosing the best stock that pops out of a system. Using the system in an up market, and maybe other factors may be more a key than the system itself. Best Wishes, Bob
