Paper trading is utter madness.
Checking results at the end of the day, seeing how much you may have won or lost, collating over a month, a year whatever.
It doesn't take into account the rollercoaster of emotions that will (I say will and not may) affect your decisions. It's ok to say that a system would be ahead after a certain amount of time, but would any of us be prepared to put on that $1000 bet when all we're trying to do is win $1 or break even on the result. Especially if we started with $1 bets and if this one loses the bank is gone etc etc etc
