I mean there's only 17 trades since 1960, all 100%, but again
some of these trades hold for 7 and 8 years, while most are at
least 2 or 3, to me I've always liked the name 'paint dry' but it
really is like watching paint dry - unless you don't trade the
markets at all, I don't see how it would be useful to anyone here.
It's still better than just buying and holding as it gives
some protection for major bear markets (except when you have fast
hard corrections that are over within a month) but keeps you out of
major bear markets that last 1 and 2 years, that said those are
rare and for me this is a cool system like chart but not really
practical for folks here - maybe for some of your friends who will
never trade, but want something that rarely gives a signal
for most of them, the weekly KISS would probably be fine -
doesn't hold as long as the Paint Dry monthly but can still avoid
fast crashes like the Covid crash
I always thought the concept of using 50% kiss weekly
spy/qqq and daily spy/qqq would be a nice combo for a 401k. Would
it be possible to see the weekly kiss stats on spy & qqq when
possible. Curious if the weekly has beaten buy &
hold.

Would you be able to post those type of stats on these systems?

Yeah, was thinking of this for some family members who could care less about day to day but don't want to get caught in a big downdraft.
The daily KISS charts would be great to have stats for though, thanks!
