Re: [amibroker] any karnish watchers out there? QQQ-StoRSI confirmation

Dave,
 
I'm watching.  The QQQ and StoRSI relationship 
was presented, again, last night at a DTG meeting in Denver (120 traders).  
The spirit of the indicator, triggers, and presentations were to present 
momentum oscillators as a positioning indicator to trigger you into 
trades.  
 
As I suggested in the public meeting:  If you 
test it straight up....you will be taking many contra-trend positions (which is 
not my style...I use some type of trend identification/qualifier with all my 
trades).  
 
So, Dave, I would suggest retesting with your 
favorite definition of "trend" and I believe you might get better results.  
Secondly, the only reason I presented the trigger levels of 13 and 87 is because 
two years ago (at this forum and in public presentations) I presented Exactly 
(with a capital E) the same ETF: QQQ, the same indicator and the same trigger 
levels.
 
Now in my book, the entire year has been 
OOS.   When I presented this, the last four times in public, I caught 
big time flack from the genius system testers (many that have never bought or 
sold a share of stock). They complained that the results sucked for certain 
periods.  Of course, they ran their tests without any 
filters.  And, the sharpest criticism came from the non-trading 
academics.
 
I will continue to flash this indicator, ETF, 
triggers to the public.  It's been cranking OOS since the day I presented 
it.  It's my very opinionated, self-absorbed view that says:  OOS from 
ancient history is very over-rated.  Let's continue to monitor the progress 
of this approach in the only real OOS (the future).  And, please, for all 
that may pooh-pooh an approach that was posted over a year ago, please post any 
approach for this forum to monitor.  The test is the future...not some 
historical aberrations that people insist on testing. 
 
Take care,
 
Steve

  Subject: [amibroker] any karnish watchers 
  out there? QQQ-StoRSI confirmation
  if you've been checking out the Uncle Steve Live show on 
  Paltalk (Businessand Finance/Teach-Talk-Trade), he's been talking up 
  StoRSI(8, 8, 3) as a wayto trade QQQ. I don't want to argue with him, but 
  I don't get great orconsistent results with it, so I wanted to check my 
  results and AFL withsomeone else.here are my QQQ StoRSI results, 
  trading at next day's open w 1%commission/slippage, no 
  stops:99:   0.25 %00: 106.15 %01: -38.58 %02: 
  -37.47 %03:  21.29 %here's the code I used; please 
  confirm that too:r = RSI(8);StoRSI = EMA( (r - LLV(r, 8) ) / ( 
  (HHV(r, 8) ) - LLV(r, 8) ), 3) * 100;buy = cover = Cross(13, 
  StoRSI);sell = short = Cross(StoRSI, 87);(ideally, you'd add to 
  your position each time you got another cross w/o anintervening reverse 
  signal. can't do that in AB, so I didn't.)is this what others see? 
  is the AFL correct? any other comments orcorrections? what's wrong w this 
  picture?daveSend
