Yes through raging BULL
times this system does well
Then again if you bought
a few stocks and held them it would do well over these time frames too
Year 2006 looks great,
then again the market shot up
Year 2005 you would not
sleep at all
Along with 2002
To me this looks like a
system that only works in a Bull market, to bad you do not know you are in one
till you are most of the way through it

I backtested this year by year. Starting each year with
100,000.
Year 2000 Annual return = 51.2% Max
system drawdown = 34.98
Profit = 50440
Year 2001 Annual return = 7.22% Max
system drawdown = 31.30
Profit = 7181
Year 2002 Annual return = -4.47% Max
system drawdown = 28.91
Loss = 4446
Year 2003 Annual return = 64.30% Max
system drawdown =
19.22 Profit = 63851
Year 2004 Annual return = 48.68% Max
system drawdown = 10.03 Profit
= 48518
Year 2005 Annual return = -7.20% Max
system drawdown =
22.17
Loss = 7126
Year 2006 Annual return = 92.82% Max
system drawdown = 3.78
Profit = 29934
If you don't count this year the average would be 31684 per
year.
Just thought that it was interesting.

Oh
Forgot to ask
What time frame are you testing this?
1999-2003? Or 2003-2006?
That makes a difference too, if you get large draw down during an up market
then there are even bigger issues I would think with the system

I have these results with my formula. However, the Max trade
Drawdown is 34.98%. Is this a good result? Since I trade hold only 4
postitions at once and use max 25% of equity per position, it is a
very agressive formula. I could reduce the exposure but my annual
return is less.
