"Pairs" trading
I tried trading SPY / DIA as a pair.
 
Plot the spread and look for cycles....  
Reasonably succesful.  Not sure if the returns are worthwhile.
 
If you are trading high leverage items it may be 
OK.

trading
  
  I've 
  been doing "pairs" trading for several years, even before it became 
  fashionable.   It would appear that the "foreign" feature in 
  AmiBroker lends itself to finding excellent pairs trades.
