ak47ssss Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Hello all, I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the mach-trend indicator, preferably platinum, and would be willing to share even if it is uneducated from http://www.precisi0ntradingsystems.com/Mach-Trend-Ninja.htm Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omaron Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 I think is same guys who made the Pi Oscillator, which is cr@p if you ask me. This mach trend looks like higher timeframe moving average put on lower timeframe chart (i don't is it, i say it looks like). However, bragging with those results as they do is at least silly. 31 trades in 15 years for a profit of about $30,000 and a maximum draw down of almost 80%. Would you have guts to hold on those trades?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak47ssss Posted June 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Omaron, I see your logic, and you seem to have done more work on the effectiveness of this system (I'll try to do better next time before asking). I think for nearly all traders, 80% drawdown is unacceptable in combination with such a small sample size. I think it would probably be best to stay away from this software.

omaron Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 I only looked at the numbers showing in the screenshots they posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak47ssss Posted June 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Yeah which is actually more of a cause for concern if the vendor admits excessive drawdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
