Hi,

Not sure what you are getting at. What I am saying is you
can use TA or other system to make a good one time call on the market (which I believe is luck), and then do nothing with buy/hold to beat
the market. For example, say you sold before the recent one
day plunge. It was a great call, and now you do nothing but
buy/hold , you will beat the market.
My point is that there are thousands of investors with
systems, but a few, very few, will beat buy/hold over the long
run. Sounds like you have a great system, do u want to take
me up on the TA challenge? I want to test a system with
say 100 trades, not 1 or 2 trades. Let the trading do the talking.

Jim

Hi, upon reading your email more carefully it sounds like
you have system that makes 1 or 2 good calls and then buy/hold
to beat the market. If the 1 or 2 good calls are real accurate
one should be able to use the system for 100-1000 calls to
destroy the buy/hold return? That is what I would do if I
had a great system.
