Thanks for the solutions, and the great graphic composition ... and for keeping them narrow enuf ;~> Your first solution ... using the Reversing checkbox ... was one of the two methods I was thinking of, in order to assure that no signals were lost due to the N=20 "persistence" effect. Your second solution ... using two System blocks PLUS changing the Vote block ... is one that I was not thinking about - but you're right ... it offers additional versatility - I discussed this earlier. Hooowwwever ... insofar as the immediate question applies ... it sorta violates the KISS principle ... can you think of another way to accomplish the SAME THING as checking the Reversing box, WITHOUT having to mod the Vote Block or add any more blocks? I'm not pulling your leg here ... there is another "KISS" alternative. Whether you discover it or not ... let's find out how "equivalent" your two solutions are. Do the DJ-30 + 12-mo chart "thing" that I described earlier, with your two strat's on the voteline ... I suggest you collapse them for easy checking. If ALL of the symbols for ALL of the trades in ALL of those months have EXACTLY the same voteline, then I'd be willing to grant that your second-sysblock + revised-voteblock method is functionally equivalent to the Reversal checkbox approach. And, of course, if you do figure out the other "KISS" method, add that one to the pile when you do the checks. I've NOT checked your new suggestion myself ... I have checked the other two ... let us know what you find out! |
