Brian, as I have posted several times in the past, the bonds are a much easier market to trade than the spoo. Less margin, better fills and more predictable movement -- or rather more orderly movement.

Interesting that your models on the neurals show consitent profitability on the bonds; I don't know what time frame you use for testing -- I test systems using 10 years of data.

Glad Profit is working out for you so quickly. Many people have said that bonds were easier to predict. I have been working over 6 months with the SPX and still have limited success. I have periods where my SPX model will make money hand over fist and then the market will change. I then have periods were I will get a good model and then it will turn quickly bad as soon as I start to use it.

Best Wishes,

Bob
