However, when optimized, both the Trend Reversal and the Reversal ATS Methods proved far superior to the % of Equity method (you will have to look very carefully to see which was the better): Even optimized the Trend ATS Method underperformed % of Equity. Note that these results were with choosing the top Long ATS performer only and devoting 10% of Equity to it's purchase. When I tried to go both Long and Short (1 trade each) once again % of Equity won out by a wide margin even when the three new ATS Methods were optimized which would appear to indicate that different strategies might need to be employed in the individual ATS methods to effectively pick Short winners.
