Yep, that's right. of, this will only be my second SLS trade and TOPIX had to spoon feed me every step of the way for the first one, so rather let Simon or TOPIX explain.

Simon, you gotta organise a link on the OST home page to the SLS... Yikes let me clean that listing up a little to make it readable

TOPI (top40), choose warrants, SSF, CFD's whatever. just keep your costs in mind when trading. Interest is a bugger if you dont factor it in.

read the capitals, NOT DESIGNED FOR SHARES.... you could test it but has not worked for me on paper tests so dont use it for shares.
THIS SYSTEM IS DESIGNED FOR LOW RISK, PROFITABLE AND CONSIST TRADES...
you might loose a few but over a 12 month period you will be the winner.

Just started using it after plenty back testing. So far so good. Not massive profits but last entry and existafter costs taken into account, 4.7%(30 days) then 1.3%(7 days) then 2.4% (12 days), so far entry up 1.2% but no exist in site. Average 3.9% a month - if that happens 12 months average return 30%.... not bad I think

the same can be said for the entry point, change it from close to ave etc. or to open. i use a 1day delay. so the results are more realistic. also time periods (bull and bear) change the result. I do month by month and trend to trend and quart to quart for reliable results. aso monitor and change the MAs, Rsis, during those periods for better results. Then do a walk forward and paper trade find your actual entry points (o,c,h,l,a) change the BT formulas and see some amazing results. busy with a candle,ma,macd,stoch,rsi,darvasbox,sar hopefully a master program. very difficult to plot the actual and the forwardlooking on the same chart. The idea is it is written for 1 share only.
