Can you back-test it for say, a year, on TDA's platform? (I have not ventured there yet myself)

lol, well so far, in one week, this strategy would have worked nicely:

I'm tempted to try this for a year: Remarkable: Since 1993, if you bought SPY on open/sold on close each day, return would be -5.2%...but if you did opposite & bought on close/sold on open next day, return would be 568% (meaning more than ALL performance came in after-hours trading) Source: @bespokeinvest

1/2 Remarkable: Since 1993, if you bought SPY on open/sold on close each day, return would be -5.2%...but if you did opposite & bought on close/sold on open next day, return would be 568% (meaning more than ALL performance came in after-hours trading) Source: @bespokeinvest pic.twitter.com/qXayCPOWTh

I keep saying I want to try this strategy, and I don't. after 2 weeks, so far, strategy seems to be holding up...
