John,
Hope I didn't give the impression that Hugh Clark's methodology is
better/worse than Pardo's and Stridsman's. I cannot do that since I
didn't read the latter.
In Clark's book he uses what he calls the 'Smart Momentum Ratio'.
It's one way to evaluate the performance of a momentum indicator.
The SMR = (Sharpe Ratio)/(max DD * deviation from straight line)
(I don't have the SMR in AFL yet since I'm just beginning on this)
He also advocates the use of 'optimised momentum indicators' using a
similar methodology as is available from Herman van den Bergen 3D
Exel chart. The indicators must continually be adapted to the
current market conditions.
Hope this helps
Regards
Leo
