TA has performed well, and has always given very accurate results, and is well documented in this section.

Glad to hear that (and I agree, in principle).

So, why not test that claim over a bigger market and a longer time horizon and see by what factor you outperform the market?



Here are my own results, after playing ~30 rounds.



I played each of the charts I was given rather quick & dirty, no deep analysis, just basic momentum. Outperforming b&h by about a factor of 2 so far.

Not bad oda.!

I was just reading something about these "couple small things..." the other day. Something about if you were out of the market for just 10 days at just the right time, it cut your profits of a B&H strategy by 25% or more, or something along those lines. I'll see if I can find a link

Edit: I just re-read your OP and realized that the two small things are on this game and not about the actual market. Whatever... My comment still stands! Trade well! Wink
