Just curious, Ive never used Fibonacci bands at all. In a stock channel they were talking about a guy who uses the parameters of 12,21,34,55,89 and 144 and does real well. Any clue about these, how they work or if you can develop a screen using them? Id like to see what a screen comes up with and track how well it does.

I don't understand...

The performance graph shows the S&P beat the filter.

But "Annualized Return on Investment (ROI): 421.12%, the ROI of ^SPX was: 7.75%." says the filter beat the S&P.

Please explain.

TRO, that part of the graph is jacked up. I don't know why SF shows it like it does...

Thanks.

It's funny, I still can't figure out how the backtest works here.

But I look at things differently, so it doesn't matter.

When most people look at a backtest they look at profit/loss and drawdown.

All I care about is RUN UP!!

I want entries that give me an OPPORTUNITY to TAKE PROFIT.

That's all that matters to me.

Statistically based entries that give me an edge.

Just like the FADE THE GAP STATISTICS FILTER I posted for everyone to benefit from. That's all you need to get rich.

The casino build tall buildings by having an edge of less than .01

Check out the edge of the FADE THE GAP STATISTICS FILTER.

I'm not sure I follow, TRO. What is run up? Could you give me an example?

Chris...are you kidding us? "RUN UP" quite simply means price moving "up." like from $1 to $2. Are you with us here?

TRO is trying to tell you just like I tell others that "backtesting" is a joke here at SF. Who cares about "backtesting" when the price runs up AND down? You ALWAYS take profits when a security is on it's way up right? So what does "backtesting" even do for you or anyone for that matter?

IMO it's a big waste of time.
