Re: What's so great about low-lag moving averages? Seriously

Maybe not quite what you wanted but here is what I did:

1. Created a combined strategy using the Tradestation BB long and short entry strategies.
2. Added JMA and T3 averages.
3. Ran "optimizations" on each average where length of average went from 4 to 145
and BB lines went from 0.5 to 2.5 stddev.
4. Looked to see how many solutions existed where ROI was over 100% of drawdown.

RESULTS:

Average: 4 of 145 tests 100 or above
JMA: 12 of 145 tests 100 or above
T3: 4 of 145 tests 100 or above

In any case I don't think I'd trade this simple BB strategy. None of these were
very profitable.

Would it be possible for Alex or Bob to publish a before and after scenario.
They don't have to reveal the system, but simply show, using the exact same
rules, what effect switching from say regular Bollinger Bands to JMA/T3
based bands can do to various profitability numbers. Would this be
possible?

Anybody else think IVT sounds a lot like Sergey? ;-)
