What you try to say is if the GC is up in US trading hours, it will be up in Asia& European trading hours, and it will reverse the next US trading day?
The core of strategy (long overnigth, short intraday w/o filter) is here (credit to Jay Kaeppel): http://www.optionetics.com/market/a...st-gold-stock-system-youll-probably-never-use Since November 2012 (date of Kaeppel's post), out of sample and using commissions IB-style, Sharpe Ratio drops from an amazing 1.95 (in sample) to 0.65. GC filter boosts SR to 1.3, with 18% maxdd You can backtest using GLD eod data (as proxi of GC futures) as filter, with a little error ( IB wants MOC order 15 min before market close).
