Just ran a Q&D worksheet on the 8,34,55 ma-jig using five minute interval closing data. It is rough and not exact by any stretch, but since December 1st this is what I got using these parameters: Enter at the close of the next five minute session when the three averages are within one point of each other. Use a two point stop loss. Once five points obtained, it must be either a winner or a flat trade. Once ten points obtained, trade taken off of table. Long trades only. There were 14 trades since Dec 1st. Three winnners, nine losers and two flat trades. Net points was +12. Not a beautiful thing, but the data certainly is in question using five minute increments. I am sure something could be worked out to make it better, but for now, that is what I got. Nothing to sneeze at either.....
