wasp said:Not really interested in standard deviations but the confidence part is important. How you reach your levels of confidence, be it %'s, backtests, forward tests or live trading, aquiring a level of confidence is vital to be able to pull the trigger and stay in a trade until your strat tells you to exit.
When I said that my remarks had nothing to do with "levels of confidence", I was referring to statistical levels of confidence. Naturally one has to be confident in what he's doing, and the more confidence he has, assuming that what he is doing is succeeding, the better. And finding the equivalent statistical level of confidence may be interesting, if he's into that sort of thing, but it's hardly necessary.
