I don't know either system, nor do I care to. That said, it's more a question of whether you can consistenly trade the system. The best system in the world doesn't mean much if you can't stick to it. And systems which don't fit your personality are hard to stick to because they will invariably do something which is counter to how you operate. Some have long drawdown periods. Some require more or less risk taking than is comfortable. Some don't operate in the right timeframe. All systems go through rough patches, which is when folks tend to bail out of them because they don't really have the faith required to stick it out.
