Hi again Toof.

I guess that gives you a 10% swing from buy to sell. Makes the program a lot more active I guess.

Pretty much, yes. And I'm cool with it being that way.
This is my only ETF, and they are less volatile by nature for the most part.
Albeit, I think SLV may be one of the most volatile ETFs since it is tied directly to the underlying commodity price.

That being said, this program is as much of a test of narrow range settings as anything else.

Since April, 2013 when I started the program:
- I have had 14 Buys and 6 Sells.
- I have a total return of -5% if liquidated at today's price.
- I own 4.7x my initial actual share purchase. Thanks LD-AIM!
- My remaining cost/share is 8% lower than my initial purchase price.
- The range from Lowest Buy Price to Highest Sell Price is about 25% - 30%. (17.25 - 22.75).
- Best Gain; Buy to next Sell was 13.2%.
- Steepest Discount; Sell to next Buy was -5.3%

I probably should modify he test using the W%r crossovers as additinal trigger requirements for transactions. Could probably improive results.
