@classic817, I’ve spent a ton of time analyzing these strategies
because, honestly, they’ve been more consistent than my own
personal trading. I pulled up my reports on SPY 78, and that’s
actually one that has held up extremely well through the recent
volatility. It was backtested all the way to 2002, so maybe that
helps explain why it’s still performing so well.
Here’s my chart of the performance with profits reinvested. The
equity curve still looks great to me. I was a little surprised to
hear that it wasn’t performing well for you, so I wanted to take a
closer look. Its max drawdown was back in 2008, which is something
I really like to see. One of my bigger red flags is when a
strategy’s max drawdown occurs in the last six months.
@Matt, I really appreciate all the work you’ve put into these
strategies. I’ve spent a lot of time looking at them from a
risk/return perspective and ended up building a custom ranking
across all 66 that incorporates drawdown, backtest length, overall
return, and consistency. Happy to share it if it’s useful — it’s
given me a pretty interesting perspective on how the different
strategies compare as well as the portfolio diversification
accomplished by combining multiple strategies for the same
instrument.
Thanks for the heads up. I am dollar cost averaging. My first
buy was 140, and my second was just now at 127. Two more buys if it
makes it, 110 and 100. I plan to hold this one for 20+
years.
Yes I have in the past. I had postbacks from TradingView
come to my private Ubuntu server, which had a full Interactive
Brokers instance on it, so I could trade and let the automations
run. I prefer to have my trade automations from Python or
Tradestation/Multicharts now, but I'm happy to point you in the
right direction with whatever you are trying to accomplish.
Just send me a private message with contact info.
Thank you for demoing the system. I love the simplicity of
the trades (max 3 entries) along with the shorts counterbalancing
the longs during pullbacks. Super impressive, Matt. Count me
in for whatever you decide to do with them.
I cant remember who did it, but someone on CNBC shorted MSTR and
bought Bitcoin as a pair trade. I remember thinking that was a
genius move, but unfortunately, I never did it...
@matt are the inverse etf systems automated and triggering
alerts on the sectors page? Those inverse etfs could come in
handy soon.

Matt - I've followed the SPY 78 min HP system for some time, and it has usually done well. This year has not been the case. Any thoughts on why this time frame has been so challenging? thx

Matt are the R2M stops intraday or on the close only? I believe the most recent STS on QQQ was 600.01?
