lol!

Clearly your system is very mechanical, ie there is no leway to adapt it as and when you see fit. Have you profitably backtested over a longish period of time?

yes have backtested over long period of time, when ever i take a view and dont follow it always makes a load of cash, i did not follow correctly on monday i got out for 55ticks and the system held posy and made 120ticks, so have made a choice to follow the rules exactly.
