perhaps i did not understand your comments.
if you develop several different systems which are based on different criteria (shorter or longer time frames etc)why wouldn't you want to use the system that achieves the best results for each stock,
some stocks will outperform with one system versus another system.
for example CREAF is a very active stock which a system that goes both long and short takes advantage of. whereas SWY has been on a straight path where a sytem with a longer time horizon takes advantage of.

its certainly more work to maintain more than one system but the profits are greater, and that seems to be the name of the game.

i started keeping a log on about 500 stocks and the prefered (most profitable) system varies. each of about 200 systems (i have tried) hits on atleast one stock with the top 10 sytems hitting on over 20 different stocks.
by the way, i am not proposing to maintain 10 different systems, but the concept of following individual stocks and tracking the sytems based upon the stocks does show merit.
why would this not be logical?

thanks
peter
