Back Testing

In addition to our user-monitored stocks, we have been using our day trading algorithm to track a selection of 50 stocks since August 2021 and our swing trading algorithm to track the S & P 500 since January 2024.

Each day we calculate our gains and losses based on "blind trading" our pattern alerts. This means that we simply follow what the alert tells us to do without any further analysis.

Our trading methodology is:

  • Enter a trade at the first price possible that is higher for W patterns or lower for M patterns than the Entry target specified in the alert
  • Set a stop loss limit at the stop loss target specified in the alert
  • If the price hits the Exit target, set a trailing stop to Exit if the price reverses a percentage equal to 1/2 the percentage difference between Entry and Exit (maximum 1%)
  • If the trade enters, but doesn't hit the Exit target, Exit at the end of day for day trading and after 30 days for swing trading.

The chart below lists the alerts generated by our algorithm for the time period selected.
