Re: Fw: The past and the future of the MeanRSI

Of course we do not know the future and especially the way that the 
future will come. RSI and MeanRSI have a lot to do with this "way".
The only tool is the experience from the past behavior and the hope 
of a repetition of a similar behavior. This is fundamental, when you 
use trading systems. if you do not trust the repetitive "cycles" of 
the market, then you should not use any "system".
As for the "buy" rule: Some systems respond better with a falling 
cross, some other with an ascending cross.
I have seen them both and I can not separate them.
It depends upon the system.
Give me some time to finalise System 1112 and the rest and I will 
revert with more details.
I enjoy the interesting and creative dialogue.
