Ultra-Reliable Seasonal Trades

Rating:
Summary: It didn't test out for me
Review: An excellent book that defines time periods for entering trades based on seasonal research, then provides fully disclosed technical systems for defining entry, exits, stops, and a back test of generally 20 years for each seasonal trade. Although the technical system varies slightly for each trade, the underlying concept is intermediate to long-term trend following, and some of the technical systems would be reasonably profitable even without considering seasonality, that is just the icing on the cake. Highly recommended, I'm repeating the back testing and anxious to start trading some of these systems.

Review: Has anyone followed the performance of these trades from 1998 on? I have tracked many of them and they are no where near as reliable or successful as past results, which is generally the case with hypothetical systems.

I would like to hear any results/opinions of others who have checked how these trades have performed.

Review: I also wrote TradeStation code for each of the trades and then tested the last few years and wasn't happy with the results. It was at best a break even strategy with plenty of risk. I expect the trades were just curve fitted to write a book.

Review: I've been using Momsen's first book "Ultra-Reliable Seasonal Trades" for years and been quite impressed. I just received "SuperStar Seasonals" and all the trades checked out. As I write this, three of the four open trades are profitable.

Review: This book is unbelievable. While most books on seasonal commodity trading self destruct after a few years, "Ultra-Reliable Seasonal Trades" just keeps churning out profitable trades year after year with consistent results.
