I have done\u00a0extensive testing with regards to the filtering mechanism used for these systems.\u00a0 This testing included looking at multiple stock indices and index futures going back to as far as 1983, and I removed 2008 trades since that was an outlier year.\u00a0 Based on this testing, I have altered part of\u00a0the filtering\u00a0criteria to be what I believe is better in tune with\u00a0stock market behavior (at least that is what historical testing shows).\u00a0 These updated systems will go into effect starting Monday (3\/21\/11).<\/p>\n
I am showing results from 1\/1\/04 to 3\/18\/11 to give you more\u00a0data than just the past 5 years (liquidity was low\u00a0before mid-2003 so I started with 1\/1\/04).\u00a0 The “Old” reports include using previous updates for the entire backtest period and the “Updated” reports use the current update for the entire backtest period to give you the best comparison of this update (to see comparison results of previous updates, look at older posts in this blog under “Articles \/ Announcements”).<\/p>\n
Hypothetical performance reports are shown below.\u00a0 They include $50 roundtrip for commission and slippage.\u00a0 They are all based on a\u00a0$15,000 account\u00a0(which is different than the amount I have used in the past for many of the systems).\u00a0 Past performance is not\u00a0necessarily indicative\u00a0of future results (see disclaimers).\u00a0 Reports must be viewed with Internet Explorer.<\/p>\n
