  I know Tradestation has automated trading have you ever givin it a try? This method seems like a good one or the RFR method. I like this one because of the tight stops and not holding overnight. 
 
 I just recived a membership for Wealth Lab... I am working setting up some auto trade code in C#. 
 
 Thanks for your sharing, you have been a termendous help to me.
 
 ==================================
 
 Auto Trading was the main reason I went to TradeStation years ago.
 
 Yes, I wrote AutoAvery to milk the cows automatically.
 
 But TradeStation will not let me trade anymore..... if you want to know why, read about it in my yahoo forum.

 I get the jist of what happend..... 
 
 The reason I ask, the back test on Wealth  Lab gives different results based on the chart time scale. A ten min chart is 80% and a 1 min chart has a 40% win rate. I have it set up to make one trade a day, I have a cash only account and want  to use  20%+   per trade. 
 
 Did Trade station enter trades based on the scale of the chart or by the streaming price data? It seems to make a difference I can look at the chart and see where I would have lost a trade because of price but the "alert happened on another bar 20 min later and ran to the profit target. 
 
 The  user forms on WL net are not very active, I respect your opinion and any first hand experiences you are willing to share would be useful to me.

  Remember I said don't even think about trading unless you can think like a computer?
 
 Running test changing chart periods is NOT the way a computer "thinks".
 
 I strongly urge you NOT to manually trade.
