Michael I wonder what results you would get if you 
used a 10 year cycle. What I mean is train your net based on 1990-91 data and 
run your test on 2000-01. I believe this is one of Gann's cycles as he made 
yearly forecasts using the composites of 10 year cycles.
So you could look at 70-71, 80-81, 90-91. The only 
problem you might have is the volatility based on price so you may need to look 
at the percentage of the move instead of the actual points.
 
I would be interested in seeing these results if 
you have the time, data and inclination
Thanks
Steve

  Subject: [RT] Neural Nets
  Have been playing around a little with a neat present I had 
  bought formyself last Christmas - Neuroshell Daytrader (<A 
  href="http://www.neuroshell.com";>www.neuroshell.com). Here arethe 
  results of one system that came up in testing. As you will see from 
  theattached chart, neural nets are by no means perfect, but it looks like 
  theycan make money for you.This very crude QQQ system is based on 
  30-min. data starting Jan. 2001. Itdoesn't use stops and is always in the 
  market. The net was trained on dataup to Oct. 9, 2001, then tested on 
  out-of-sample data from Oct. 10 throughOct. 24. Following that, it was 
  retrained using the additional two weeks ofdata up to Oct. 24, and applied 
  on the out-of-sample data from Oct. 25through Nov. 7. In this manner, a 
  series of 2-week-long walk-forward testson out-of-sample data was 
  produced, with the net being retrained every twoweeks the way it would 
  have been done in real trading, too.In spite of some whipsaw, the 
  system proves quite profitable with anannualized return of 193.9% 
  (statistics attached). While I still reservejudgment on the general value 
  and applicability for my trading, I must saythe results of testing so far 
  look promising.Best regards,Michael
