There is a substantial risk of loss in trading. You should therefore carefully consider

My signal International ETF follows the trend. In an uptrend it mechanically positions sizes up and in an downtrend it goes to a larger position of cash. The strongest month of this year March it beat the S+P-500 by a full percent.
The difficulty currently is yesterday I had 2 ETFâs that split. That threw a wrench in C2 and the calculation is way off. After repeated attempts thru the help email nothing is yet fixed. Please take a look at the signal in a couple of days. Maybe by then it will be fixed.
It is good to see strategies which emphasize high avg. win to avg. loss ratios rather than high win ratios. These are the strategies which almost always win out in the long run over those which start with high win ratios. Unfortunately, C2 in its prominent statistical display seems to emphasize high win ratios without even showing avg. win to avg. loss ratios.
I do consider all of my strategies at some level to be trend following, but more particularly:
Traditional trend following systems come with a drawdown that is well beyond what the market on Collective2 can handle. Thus, why high win rate players and less sustainable systems are the most to be introduced. Thatâs a point that Karl brought up, and itâs a good one.
