Hi again,
by mistake I posted incomplete message (i'm new to this board) so here goes additional info:
period: 31/12/2003 - 29/06/2004
Stop Loss: 10%
Stop profit: 2% (I'm not greedy :o)))
Maximum holding days: 6
Entry price = Exit price = Open
Although there are not too many trades the result is pretty nice. Maybe it can serve you as additional filter when some of your other filters don't show anything to buy.
I'm new here and i want to ask you to look at my post from 13/6/2006 in the topic Backtesting Support / Conditional entry not working. I don't know how to simulate some conditions and would appreciate if you help me.
Thank you in advance
regards
r.a.

Radovan,
while the results of your filter look encouraging, please be aware of the following caveats:
1. The minimum requirement of volume criterion is 90,000 which is a little paltry in my opinion. Not enough liquidity for small stocks. Most of your trades were indeed in the small stock universe, so that would be an issue.
2. You have backtested with a profit target AND and stop loss. Since SF only provides daily data, you do not know which comes first. Your results may be inflated since a gain for your profit target could be shown, while in reality your stop loss target was hit first.
Cheers,
|

Thanks Koronbock for your guidance. The second one I didn't realize at all. Regarding the volume... I will research what experienced ones include in their filters posted in the forums :o)))
Thanks
