Hi Howard - What might be some other methods, besides the equity curve,  of selecting which component system to use at a given time? Thank you!

Greetings all --

After any individual trading system has been tested, it can be treated as a "component" and combined into a "composite" trading system that does nothing but select which of the components to use at the current time.  The equity curve of each component is one method of selection.

Thanks,
Howard

That's certainly a variation on the theme. In your case, instead of
trading the equity curve of the individual trading system, you're
suggesting trading between different systems based on the equity
curve. Another interesting idea!

Essentially it keeps you in the best performing trading system at any
given time. I've experimented with this approach for years with
moderate success.
