Hi All,

How are you back testing Histogram Magic. I tested it 11/2/2005 - 5/18/2006 (a good trading window for me this year) and Histogram Magic didn't do as well. I was using a 20%G and 10%L sell criteria.
Does anyone have any suggestions or do we need to cherry pick the stocks from the list?

Thank you,
R.

Riggs -
If you're trading 3-5 days you should be able to back test using StockFetcher because it allows you to setup your exit using any method you would like to use.

I guess I'm curious what you use as your exit criteria. Do you just wait for 3 days and sell or do you have a profit target?

Thank you,
CDV - Renn
