i need "daily"datas and "intraday" datas at the same time to be rigorous. So i needed to make manually a lot of test (many times !) and i find a 5% margin of error so my automated tests were really realists.
So if you are interested i can give you these results ? I have APPL for example while 18 years...
--> do you use daily data or intraday data to generate L5? I guess you only need daily data, is that right? if so, can you generate the L5 for those 5 stocks for 10 years, and send to my mail box? or can you give an example why human behavior can play into something like L5 which does not take account of the open price of tomorrow? many thanks.
Hes using the same L5's% for the past few days, they havent changed if you take a peek at them.
I dont know if thats intentional or how he does it.
Hes simply taking a % based on O-H-L-C and some ATR and hes using the mean. most are 2-3%. 2% works as good as 3%, etc.
When the market gets too volatile, the %'s go up to 4-5%, when the market gets more stabile, less movement in the upcming summer months, the % will go down.
I dont think his system is rocket science. You can play with %'s until you find the right ones. The best part of his system, no indicators...
