Dimitris,

Over what period did you run the optimisation?

Why did you limit the period of the the variable to 13,6,5 (my suggested
value). Why not a minimum of 3,2,1?

Also, why didn't you just put 13,5,6 in and "look"? There is lesson that a
4000hr Vietnam veteran fighter pilot gave me, keep your eys out of the cock
pit. This means don't fall into the trap of getting sucked into all the
flashing lights and dials. It means look outside and see what is going on.

It could be possible that AB has caught a local optimum, rather than a
global one. It could also be possible that the data time frame was too big
and that lately the stock has changed it characteristic.

Id sugest just ptting in a couple of different small period MACD values in
the AB settings and having a look at the tail end of your data and see
what's been going on.

Good luck.

Using the

FAST=optimize(" FA ",12,6,12,1);
SLOW=optimize(" SL ",26,13,28,1);
SIG=OPTIMIZE(" SIG ",9,5,9,1);
buy = cross( MACD(FAST,SLOW),SIGNAL(FAST,SLOW,SIG));
sell = cross(SIGNAL(FAST,SLOW,SIG), MACD(FAST,SLOW));
buy=exrem(buy,sell);
sell=exrem(sell,buy);

the most profitable combination proved to be for the certain stock
FAST=11, SLOW=20, SIG=9
(Settings were buy and sell at Average)
The result was equally funny with MACD 12,26,9.
And I say funny because at the right end I have a buy signal with
a delay of 6 weeks and the whole uptrend was 6 weeks. Anyway,
thank you for hint.
