Welcome to the forums.
Have you searched here a bit on the performance of other posted filters?
I think the short answer to your question is "yes, other filters can provide better ROI results." It depends greatly on your time frame for the backtest.
As a test, let's compare filters against the following time frames:
08/01/08 until 12/01/08 (a VERY ugly downtrend)
05/01/09 until 09/01/09 (a VERY nice uptrend).
A good filter should be able to provide results over that of the ^SPX during any time period tested.
Here is a simple (long ONLY) filter that I have posted here and commented on many time over the last three months, and the results for the time frames listefd above:
Filter used:
CLOSE 1 DAY AGO IS BELOW LOWER BOLLINGER BANDS(16,2.5) 1DAY AGO
and close is above close 1 day ago
and close is above 1
and volume is above 50000

By the way, the results I just posted were also posted only 3 days ago in this thread:
http://forums.stockfetcher.com/sfforums/?q=view&fid=1001&tid=81485&qrid=
Please be sure to read through the forum threads, especially those clearly related to filter performance, before making any statements regarding your filter ROI% as being better than every other result posted here ...
Thanks!
