Please feel free to write out words -- you, your, are, consecutive, loser, and, and so forth. Second. If the results of ten years of optimization were in-sample, then there is no surprise that the real-time results are poor. Only out-of-sample results have value in terms of predicting future performance. Either you can test you system on out-of-sample data using good modeling and simulation technique, or you can let the market test it for you using real money.
