So its sounds like you made changes to your system hopefully for the better. Should you not just close your current system on C2, and start with the new system?

Possibly, I'm thinking about not renewing the system when it comes due in a couple months, and starting a new one.

This was the original post that was sufficiently enticing enough to garner institutional interest, so I would say that the improved version with these new results is an excellent upgrade.

These would be pretty close to the most current results I have.

This would be the trades list for that backtest; try to pay more attention to the entries and exits and the percentage profits. The real reason that you see on c2 my average loss is so much greater than my average profit isn't that they are so much greater than my winners, than that by the time I'd doubled I'd started to take losers, but these weren't any bigger than the percentage profits. They just happened to be larger on an absolute basis because I had more capital later than when I had started.

And, unlike other people, I'm not afraid to show a trades list, because the likelihood that someone could reverse engineer this system is impossible. The program is 25 pages long in Word, at 11 point font, and has approximately 605 lines with several key lines being very long stretching out past two pages.

Jack Hershey's system is 9 pages total with 118 lines. That system at it's core is available, and could possibly be reverse engineered from the legacy threads, only works in WL, though, so considering there's a whopping 3 reviews of Active Trader Pro, including one of mine, I doubt there's too many people paying attention to it.

My system doesn't hold for that long. Buy and hold in QLD is not an optimal strategy, and you can have a look on c2 for all the systems that tried that in 2007, 2008 and 2009. Luck would be the only factor involved in doing that. You might as well say "Well, why not buy on March 7th and hold." The market is nearly always fairly valued, in fact, fairly valued 65% of the time approximately. I only take positions when the market has gone too far away from its fair value, based on volatility, fair value predictions, and the fitness of the statistical calculations. Those conditions don't happen but 80 times since QID and QLD's inception in June 2006. I could care less what happens to either QID and QLD, because they both have had 80+% drawdowns during the time I've traded them. Most likely they will have those same drawdowns again.

I agree with the above and believe it is possible to take advantage of market inefficiencies.

There seems to be quite a discrepancy between back tested and actual results. Over what period of time are you looking at for the system to show positive results? Is this a system where you expect to make 90% of your money on 10% of your trades?

Dog, I think I'll let you be the judge. Have a look at the trades list and look at the percentages.

Here's a descending order trades list:

I actually exited this trade at 30.44, just prior to joining covestor, so it's unfortunate you can't see that in the results.

The biggest thing I notice is that nearly all of the large drawdowns happened in 2009, so if you wanted a reason why the performance has not been as good in 09, you can see it here.

I wish there was a better way to post spread sheets. I know that’s the way the board is set up but it’s tough to follow.

Do you have a record done on a per year basis?
Compare 2006, 2007, 2008 and ytd 2009.

You mentioned that biggest drawdowns were in 2009.

How does this correlate to the market trend? Has the system done better in a down market?
