Since I use a slightly different version of 4%, I won't post my results except to say that it has proven to be extremely profitable. Of course, like all trend following systems, one must be well funded and psychologically prepared to endure the inevitable drawdowns. However, one must not confuse high standard deviation with risk. Volativity and risk are most certainly not the same entity. It's a simple successful method. . but that doesn't mean it's easy. Lastly, I have found money management to be paramount- - but isn't it always? Regards, Jack. Yes- – I transposed the prices from my computer when posting.

I have updated the table. I do not have longer than March 09 results since I only discovered the trading system when there was much talk about a Zweig thrust in that time frame.
