Haven't I seen some of your posts on RealTraders? Trendy sounds familiar.

Have you analyzed your data to provide a ratio of longs vs. shorts and during what phase of the market the ratios fall into?

I'm wondering if your data could be biased with regard to high success rates during periods of bullish trend. For example, I noticed a week or two ago that if I were to have purchased a 4 lot based on the volatility stop when it went bullish in January, and sold when it became bearish about a week ago, I would have picked up over $200,000 I believe.

Can't get much simpler than that, but I don't know if it could show similar success over a 5 year period, for example.
