Says bank holiday due to veterans day. Exchange might be open but patterns will be different. Same with dax today. Its open but it is very weird, tight ranges.
Now we are in the last weeks of the year - time to compare how the system went over time.
In the thread is discussed how the rules were slightly optimized - I will not repeat here.
Last year week 46 was at the year end result - the last weeks 2012 were not changing this any more.
Points made end of week 46
Year 2012: 1011
Year 2013: 909 (expecting here some more points in the coming weeks)
Actual chart of weekly points made in 2013
Discussion:
Both years show quite similar returns. There was a steady gain development without big drawdowns.
In 2013 were less trades taken than in 2012 (normally 3 per week instead of 5).
So given a gain of rough 1'000 yearly future points X 25 (per point with IB) this nets 25K in year per car
on a margin which ranged between 6400 to 10'600 per car in the given 2 years.
End note: The system (rules) looks quite robust over 2 years under the pressure of so many very
different influences and quite different development of the Dax in both compared years.
