    Does this strategy make any sense?

    Yes, it makes sense and yes it could work. It's been tried and back tested before with futures instead of ETFs, see http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=44092

    Long only Traders

    Or maybe have 70% long positions and 30% short positions. Alternatively, you could try some sort of dynamic allocation system, perhaps based on the ratio of the number of stocks making new highs to that of stocks making new lows. I'm sure you can think of some other possibilities.

    Investing sages: where can I putmy money for long term security?

    Several million? You're like a slum dog millionaire posting here on ET. Why don't you try diversification? Put some in fixed income and some in dividend aristocrats, you know, the stocks of companies that raised their divvy every year for the past 35 years. Either that or go for ETFs or both...

    Deflation-stealth in '08 shows face in '10

    What if you're wrong? How and when will you know it? Why long JPY? Isn't the chance of a Japan bankruptcy close to that of a UK bankruptcy? Why USD, why not a safe haven currency like CHF?

    Alexander Elder Trading Room Video 10 Dvd Video Course

    Here's what I mean: Seems massively labor intensive to advertise a 10 DVD video course, field the inquiries, and then pack it up and ship it for $75. However, I guess it is a deflationary environment and dollars are much harder to come by than they used to be.

    robust tradingstrategy?

    (1) do you ever find a system, which has a better profit factor than 1,3 on all markets? No. (2) Markets are changing! what would you do, if your profitfactor goes down from 1,5 to 1,2 or 1,3? Monitor closely and stop using the system if it starts to lose money.

    robust tradingstrategy?

    That would be enough for me, but I wouldn't use it on any instruments with a profit factor of less than 1.50. Test it with a simulation account first for a month or two.
