    Well, Spydertrader, I tested your suggestion, which slightly improves the figures, but not dramatically... To repeat it once more: This is NOT the JH method, but, as Spydertrader correctly said, nothing more than the answer to the question: "What happens if I only looked at score?". This...

    I am not interested in the answer to that question. Beating buy and hold is not a goal I am looking to achieve. ... yes, you are right, the script can only be used for backtesting and not for signalling! YES SIR! Feel free to improve the script. It's easy to change it to "buy at 7 if...

    Thank you Spydertrader. That's exactly the point what you say: This was not a "method". It was a hint if looking at the score does make any sense at all or not - not more than that. But it means after filtering the signals it can be useful to keep the score in mind (that's what you said in a...

    The size was 5000 $ per trade. Correct. I don't agree on that. There are plenty of strategies that take only the longside and remain profitable during the crash. But still to the other point: Please be aware that the code contains NO STOPS! Put in stops and you can be sure the drawdown...

    Hi Spyder, your post and the document inspired me to program a little script that I attach to this reply... I wanted to clarify the question if it's worth taking a look at the score or not. Therefore I decided to find out, if it makes sense to buy when the score equals '7' and sell the...

    Hi Spydertrader, SIGM would have met the criteria for a short trade. As the stock trades below 10, I didn't take it (which has proven to be right in the end). CU Odelys

    Thanks for your warm words, Spydertrader. I am used to share my knowledge. For me, everything is a give-and-take. Never say never, but today it seems like there will be no action. Let's say apart from the rest of my position in TASR which is > 11 right now :)

    Here I ve got a detailed opinion concerning "The Trading Game": By Eugene on Tuesday, January 21, 2003 - 07:13 am: I think that there is some misunderstanding of details as far as Fixed Ratio MM is concerned. One should look at the whole concept that Ryan Jones proposes, and not only at...

    Hi guys, Spydertrader encouraged me to post my last two successful trades as of yesterday. I took TASR and SGTL as I didn't get more alerts before 11:30 ET. Unfortunately, as I am in Europe, it is always the time between I leave the office and return home when the signals are occurring...

    @Spydertrader Well, I don't even dare asking still another question... May I? :( Does a "tenured" stock lose its tenured status after a losing trade? And does a stock get the status "tenured" only on a winning long trade? I assume both yes... Sorry for still being active and...
