It's tough to start from 1982, I think the best systems trader here might have been Tom Trader, Member 657121 but I think even Tom might agree that going back so far is a mistake. I like going back to 1991 as a max, although I know others that go to 1988.

Anyway that is why I think taking various time frames smoothes the analysis out better. Perhaps if you try to take the longest, the 1982, and then combine it with two, perhaps three shorter intervals it might give you better signals. The real problem with such a time frame is that the period is so bullish. I would think the system might have a predetermination to go Long rather than Short.
