Nicholas, You sound thirsty. But didn't the comparison spark some questions? Why the big discrepancy in performance? Would you trust it? Gosh, I'm begining to sound like Richard. Anyways, the "system" is very simple. You have all the tools with which to build it. It is: - CCI13 and CCI 34 - Moving average of CCI34 - TSF of CCI - SMI purloined from the 56'rs, although I have not really spent enough time with it to understand it and get a sense for whether I like it or not. - DAHL, or not. Try it. For exits (for building this quick test) I just used a short term TSF of price closing under a longer term. (8 and 21). For entries it buys based on traditional crossings for CCI (such as -150 or Zero, bounces off of Zero, and crossings of the CCI-TSF.) My point in posting the two stocks was to highlight the differences. If you build something like this without a DAHL filter on it, it will buy on the way down. Would you trust that? Just thought I'd spark some dicussion. Some assembly required. Caveat emptor. Your milage may vary. (ps, if you look at the trades of the big winner you see sometimes you are down 10,000 million. Would you trust that!? )
