Hi, i want to inform you that from this moment until 15 May 2018 my automated strategy ā€œEarningsTradingQuantā€ will be free of charge.

The two previous earning sessons it had a return of 36,7% and 6,3%
For 5-year backtesting results look at this topic

Thank you

@johnkur, your strategies are interesting, but I have noticed you have tried a ton of different strategies and nearly all have either crashed and burned, become too volatile, or struggled to beat the market.

If you are backtesting strategies I would advise you to be careful to not to ā€˜backfit’ or ā€˜curvefit’. That is, don’t just plug in random variables until you get a nice looking equity curve in the backtest. Find a system in one set of sample data, then run it several times in out of sample data. If the results are close to as good, you might have something. I’m telling you from experience, as I did the same thing years ago.

Good luck.

@DogZebra_Investing Hi, I want to inform that from all the systems i have created only these two are full automatic with specific rules. They have created after quantitive analysis of historical data without overfitting to get better results or nice equity curve. They are not black box systems and their rules are mainly fundamental rules. By know after six months on C2 the results are the expected. Of course no one can guarantee the long term success of a system.

I have to agree with DogZebra, just too many burned or failed strategies.
Don’t wanna be a crash-test dummy for your next system.
Maybe you go TOS for a change.

What about your last strategy you started last month? Already giving up?
