Would like to hear your thoughts on general view on strategy for Stocks.
I see Nirvana always gearing towards very quick gains (very short term trading) - all their "big strategies" are based on high hit rate.
Versus more of a longer term strategies - low hit rate but high R/R. OV strategies and other Nirvana products seems to achieve those nice smooth curves with short term gains.
What is your general approach?
Is it possible to even achieve those nice curves from Nirvana with longer term strategies?
Thanks |

Location: : , | I agree with your perspective on Nirvana. Eg. in OV it only allows daily timeframes and at a cursory level, it seems to have more reversion to mean systems than others.
I find it easier to produce profitable systems using a weekly timeframe than a daily timeframe. It may be because I have a preference for trending systems. A significant contributor to the profitability the type of systems that I create is having a macro filter based on the overall condition of the market eg. If the index is trending up then it is ok to go long on stocks.
BTW I can never produce those great equity curves that Nirvana does. |

Thanks for sharing.
I have experience the same findings - where weekly systems works best on stocks, but even though the systems I trade are profitable I have not find anything close to the equity curves /returns from the Nirvana Systems in OV or the systems they sell separately. Granted I have only tested trend following type of strategies, I have not research any reversion to the mean ones.
So I was wondering if the key to consistent wealth building is really on reversion to the mean strategies or Short Term strategies rahter than trend following or long term strategies.
Hope some others can shed some light or share more thoughts.
Thank you in advance

This is where I hope Omnivest will help. |
