401K system correction

    Posted by matt on 3rd of Mar 2014 at 09:49 am

    someone sent me an email to let me know that even though the long term 401K paint dry system went flat on Friday, I still had the trades marked as open on the Excel stats sheets.  Obviously that was an error on my part, sorry for the confusion, here's the updated tables showing the trade closed out on Friday

    401K APRs are 6.8%, 11.8%, and 13.2%

    B&H 6.8%

    Long only 11.8%

    Lg&Sh 13.2%

    401K system almost doubles return w with Long and Short,

    With long only and interest gain is about 73% over B&H.
