The buy signal did not hold up because the next day the markets opened down and continued down. So the correct action would have been, go to cash or short at about 10:00am 5/11/2011.
There have been twice as many signals so far this year then normal and a trending system does not perform as well in this environment. The markets will stop being choppy and the profits will start coming back to The Trend Advantage. Staying with a system while it is not performing is tough but in 2010 there were 12 signals and all were profitable. Also 2010 was The Trend Advantages best year.
This a long term game of making money.
The Trend Advantage
