Will you disclose any of your systems in the future?

Have you published any information on your process of design and testing of your systems? The blog and entries here are just for record keeping?

A blog documenting the process from the beginning would be fascinating. Have the systems been designed by a group? If not, opening up your systems, or perhaps the next one (if planned) you design, for public input could be of benefit to create a more successful mechanical system.

I may sell some of my systems in the future. Thanks for your suggestions.

As you may be aware, as at writing, I tend to 3 threads on this forum:

Building a live account - US$1,000 to more than US$3,000,000 in 30 years;
Building a live account 2 - US$1,000 to more than US$200,000 in 30 years; and
Building a live account 3 - $10,000 to more than $10,000,000 in 30 years.

Each of the 3 accounts is traded using a different trading system:
Account 1 uses System of Never-Ending Sorrow;
Account 2 uses System of A Thought of Class; and
Account 3 uses System of Atlas.

The correlation between the 3 systems are:

The CAGR, maximum drawdown and MAR ratio of the 3 systems and their composite index are shown below. To derive the composite index, the 3 systems are traded concurrently with equal allocation of capital that is re-balanced at the start of each year (i.e. the equity for each system at the start of each year is equal).

As we can observe, trading multiple systems can improve the composite MAR ratio and lead to a happier trading life.

To view the equity curve of each system and the composite index from 1 January 1999 to 31 January 2012, please visit http://traderfj.com/2013/02/12/tradi...tiple-systems/.
