Dump it Here


I think I picked up another feature of your stale filter. If a take-over target stays stale for too long without attracting a higher offer it shall be sold based on stale filter criteria even if the underlying reasoning is not known. I just saw BAL position and that was my assumption, so if that's the case then the stale feature is quite useful and clever in locking in profits.
 
Gday aus here is a linc about time stops 2 different takes on this
Final Thoughts
Even though the N week stop rule does not improve the CAR and MDD, one still may want to add this rule. Psychologically it is always good to get out of losers. Some people would prefer to have the more trades because it improves the chances of getting big winners.

This so-called ‘stale exit’ techniques are something we’ve done research on before. What we found is that market leaders tend to consolidate rather than retrace enough to hit the stops. When the market moves higher again, its these market leaders that jump first out of their respective consolidation. So, a stale exit method tends to remove these first movers. If the entry mechanism is filtered, i.e. using some kind of ROC, then there is a chance that these market leaders won’t be picked up again.

I also commented on Skate's Logo design skills earlier in the 'Dump it here' thread. Very impressive :xyxthumbs
Every chance I did read that aus … and then simply forgot:rolleyes: ………. that seems to be a common occurrence as I get older:eek: .…. I also find I tend to repeat myself a lot repeat myself a lot.

Off topic, sorry @Skate …… as you were:)

Hi @peter2

No, that's the correct picture - they are the last updates of the CAM & BOX Strategies.

Initially to keep the 'Dump it here' thread active I decided to trade two new small accounts reporting the weekly trading results - really it was pure self indulgence on my part having no educational value.

Both strategies aren't too shabby - both are showing potential.

Skate.
 
It's been good of you to post those updates Skate and thank you for taking the time to post the actual stocks picked by your strategies, it's been very interesting/educational/informative to read.

Yes, loads of great info in this thread. I've been system trading for a long time and only found this thread recently. Changed a system variable because of a tip here.

Thanks Skate, makes sense :)

And me always being precise the change...

AddColumn( RoundTickBuy( Close * 1.05), "Buy105%", 1.3, colorDefault, colorPaleGreen, -1 );

To...

AddColumn( RoundTickBuy( Close * 1.03), "Buy103%", 1.3, colorDefault, colorPaleGreen, -1 );
