"Systematic trading has dramatically improved my returns and drawdowns. I'm easily beating the indexes and not taking an inordinate amount of risk. Prior to MetaStock I tried one trading concept after another, and was essentially break-even not without many gut wrenching moments though. Trading is now objective and simple for me. I just follow the signals. And through extensive back-testing, I have confidence that my system will be highly profitable in the future."
