My results on backtesting,
I played four stocks, RFMD, BRCD, ADCT and RGLD using an imaginary portfolio value of 25,000 I increased it in a little over a year to 32,100 or over a 28% gain. Not to shabby considering RFMD lagged badly and RGLD basically broke even.
I would of thought I would of had more stellar results with the Nasdaq run of the past year, but I think it is more my stock selection than xdev. BRCD did supurb while the others dragged. Xdiv did a great job in catching tops and bottoms but the others didn't have enough volatility at my settings to make a difference.
Still, xdev did a great job compared to my actual results last year trading and I believe the long term holding thru short term trades will make me a more disciplined investor. :o)
