No, seriously, no cross at anytime today yet. Thanks all anyway,
if I cannot solve this I will just have to backtest the
system through NT and see if it holds up.
Thans Michael, however that shows a discrepency from my chart.
At 12:06 I have the MAs at 18.72 and 18.73, hence no cross. Wierd.
By the way rrflandy, this is the 3min system we are referring to.
Matt, did your 3min SRS cross?
Funny, I have had no signals for the SRS 3min system. What you
posted as a whipsaw I got a near cross that reversed. I have
checked the parameters (MAs and chart times etc.) and they seem to
be correct. I use NT. Anyone else following the system got
crossovers?
Hey RP, things could be worse: MY country has the highest paid
politicians in the world. Our president earns 5 times that of
yours. The reasoning for these salaries is that they need to be
able to entice the "best and the brightest" away from the
private sector so as to assure capable governance. Well recently,
my country's sovereign wealth fund lost something to the tune of
4.9 billion dollars (out of a 5.8 billion orginal investment) when
it sold its BoA shares. To add insult to injury, BoA has since
recovered over 70%.... Our SWF was 40% invested in finance related
equities when the market crashed. This was entirely due to
the brilliant guidiance of the (now former) CEO who also happened
to be the prime minister's wife.... The amazing thing about al this
is that nobody in the country is up in arms about this. Gives
"sheeple" new meaning. I could go on, but won't, just wanted to let
you know that the US does not take the cake for incompetant
government.
The point is to trade the same dollar amount each time. if you
don't you will not get the same percentage performance as the
system. As Michael and Bkout3 have pointed out you are combining
discretionary trading with the system if you adjust position sizes
according to what you perceive the "risk" to be.
Yeah I saw that particular article as well. Pretty much says it
all, buy the dips. The only thing that I don't quite agree on is
the drawing of that bear wedge. Too few touches of that upper
trendline. Doesn't mean that I am insanely bullish, I just don't
see that particular pattern right now.
Huh? From the article: "Senator Barney Franks, a social pervert
basking in his homosexuality..." This sentence kinda makes me take
everything else written with a huge pinch of salt.
Yesir, in PAL and PCX as well as SKF and SRS swing system
shorts. Let's see how this plays out, but in general playing the
mechanical EOD systems as well rigorously so even if the swings
don't work out the EODs should kick in nicely.
