That is a good result: from 97.7 k USD to 112.7 k USD in ten months. And that even includes a nett withdrawal of 15 k USD.
Kudos to your October gain! Hey, can you share your insight as to how you were able to come up with predefined number of bars for exit? Is that time-based or is it purely based on the number of bars? Even more than that, I'm dying to know how accurate it is. I would love to see this in action ("Ding, ding, ding...It's time to enter...Take your profit after 27 bars...Ka-ching!")
Thanks...the gain is YTD. Only up slightly for October. To see how I am coming up with the exit criteria including the number of bars to hold before exit, watch the portfolio-optimization video here: https://www.fasterquant.com/product/video-tutorials/
fan27 - my compliments on what you have built and YTD results. I'm running multiple algorithmic automated strategies intraday but based on dailies and seeing a similar equity curve on their aggregate performance this year. August - October were just continuous fluctuations around slightly positive results. November seems to have a good start in terms of increased trading activity, yet to be seen if new equity highs to be broken.
