The Swenlin Price Momentum Model (PMM) is applied to all the stocks,
mutual funds, and market indexes we follow. It is strictly mechanical
and is always set on BUY or SELL. For a new signal to be generated,
price must: (1) reverse at least 10% from the extreme price for the
current signal; and (2) pass through the 200-day exponential moving
average (200- EMA). (For a discussion of how to calculate moving
averages, CLICK HERE.)
The 10% price move and 200-EMA crossover criteria were arbitrary
and were chosen so that the model would only respond to fairly large
moves in the market, and thus give primarily long-term signals. When
I first invented the model I tested both criteria separately beginning
in 1980. The 10% model generated about 25 signals and the 200-EMA
model generated about 55 signals. In both cases, this was entirely
too much whipsaw and, of course, not at all profitable.
Then I had the idea to combine the two screens into one model.
This reduced the number of signals to nine (9) and all but one was
profitable. When tested over a period from 1920 through the present
on a single market, the results were not as good because the market
will ultimately present a set of conditions to defeat any mechanical
model. However, when we back tested it against a wide range of market
sectors, the results (see below) are quite impressive.
One of the strengths of the model is that it doesn't let you miss
major moves up or down unless the move is extremely quick. As it
so happens, the model did take us out of the market two days prior
to the 1987 Crash, but I must allow that it might just as easily
have missed the move by a day had actual market conditions been slightly
different. Specifically, the model will not miss large market moves
that extend over long periods. This is important because you don't
want to be in the market during severe bear markets or out of the
market during extended bull markets.
Another strength is that the model doesn't let you be wrong for
very long. While there is occasionally some overshoot, it will normally
change directions after a maximum 10% loss.
A major weakness is that, even with the double screen, the model
is still subject to whipsaw when market volatility is high and it
is moving in a narrow trading range of about 10% or less. In other
words, price must move at least 10% in the direction of the signal
before a signal can break even.
Another weakness is that, if the price moves too far too fast,
the 200-EMA can be left far behind and a lot of profit can be lost
before the 200-EMA screen can be tripped for a reversing signal.
You can see what I mean by looking at the difference between the "Signal
High % P/L" column and the "Signal Final % P/L" column. The first
shows the maximum profit embraced by the signal, and the other shows
the amount of profit the signal actually captured.
Performance is best in a trending market -- that is when the market
moves the same general direction over extended periods of time. It
is also my opinion that the higher the price, the less subject to
whipsaw the model is -- it's just easier to get a 10% move when the
index is, say, 500 than it is when it is 3000.
The Price Momentum Model is an excellent timing tool for any security
or market index that has a history of relatively low volatility,
mutual funds in particular. It is simple to use, and has a high reliability
for being in the market during major up moves, and for being out
of the market during major declines. It should minimize worry, hand
wringing, and sleeplessness.
Below is a discussion of back testing we did covering most of the
1990s. Since then we have experienced one of the worst bear markets
in a century. While we don't have actual test results for that period,
I personally observed PMM performance in our Fidelity Select, Rydex,
ProFunds, and Spider Web (EFT) Tracker newsletters, and it was consistent
with the back testing results we have.
SUMMARY OF SWENLIN PRICE MOMENTUM MODEL BACK TESTING ON FIDELITY
SELECT FUNDS
Using the Swenlin Price Momentum Model we back tested data on 32
of the Fidelity Select Mutual Funds from the beginning of January
1990 to the end of January 1998 -- a little over seven (7) years.
We have included SELL Signals for information only, to show how
much of a decline may be missed as well as to illustrate the futility
of investing against the primary market trend. Since these mutual
funds cannot be shorted, the SELL Signal results are not part of
our signal performance calculations.
The results are as follows:
Total BUY Signals: 165
Total Profitable: 105 Signals lasting 625 days w/average profit of 56.0%
Total at a Loss: 60 Signals lasting 98 days w/average loss of -7.0%
Average one BUY Signal per fund every 15 months.
The Average BUY Signal lasted 433 days w/average profit of 33.1%
Total SELL Signals: 144
Total Profitable: 18 lasting 199 days w/average profit of 6.7%
Total at a Loss: 126 lasting 75 days w/average loss of -7.2%
The Average SELL Signal lasted 92 days w/average loss of -5.4%
TEST PARAMETERS
Model requires a beginning signal assumption, so we assumed that all
funds tested would begin on a BUY Signal. Open and closing prices for
each signal were assumed to be the closing NAV on the day the signal
was generated. The effects of transaction fees, taxes, or compounding
were not considered in the calculations. Some of the signals were still
open at the end of the back test period and may not ultimately close
as high as they were at the end of the test.
The data used were adjusted for distributions to insure a consistent
relationship for determining gains and losses. We freely admit that
changing these assumptions and parameters could substantially change
the results. We do not defend them. We made some quick choices so
that we could get some idea of how the Model performs.
CONCLUSIONS FROM THE TESTING
We reached certain conclusions from this back testing, as well
as from our observations of the performance of the Momentum Model
in real time over a period of several years.
- The Model does very well with securities
and market indexes that trend in a relatively orderly fashion.
Volatility tends to result in loss-producing whipsaws. Consequently,
the Model works best on market indexes and mutual funds where the
volatility of individual stocks is attenuated by being averaged
in with a large group of stocks. This is even the case with sector
groups like technology, computers, etc. Performance of the Model
on market indexes and mutual funds is approximately 50% to 70%
better than on individual stocks.
- The back testing was performed over
a period when the broad market was in a secular bull market. As
a result, the SELL Signals were routinely unprofitable, while BUY
Signals were routinely profitable. We fully expect that this result
will be quite the opposite when the market enters a secular bear
phase.
- It is our observation based on the
historical charts of these funds that virtually no sector can be
expected to perform well in the face of a bear market. There will,
of course, exceptions, and our Model will let profitable positions
run even in the event of a bear market.
- Our overall conclusion is that following
the Momentum Model BUY Signals during a bull market (going to cash
during SELL Signals) should keep one in the market when a position
is performing well, and take one out of the position when the fund
(sector) experiences a serious correction. This should allow for
profitable exposure when warranted, and substantial reduction of
risk.
- CAVEAT: We cannot guarantee that
following this strategy will result in future profits or protect
from future loss. It is entirely possible that substantially different
market conditions will sabotage the mechanical model, so it is
imperative that you understand how it works and what its weaknesses
and strengths are. Models are great for screening candidates, but
a real human brain must be responsible for ultimately putting actual
money at risk.
BACK TESTING RESULTS
Below are the individual signals resulting
from the back testing. We have listed the BUY Signals first, since
they are the most relevant. Next we list the SELL Signals, and, finally,
all signals shown in the sequence they were actually generated. In
this last group, please note how the more volatile sectors funds
experience periods of unprofitable whipsaw.
We show two results, the highest profit
(or least loss) and the "Last" profit (loss) at the time the position
was closed. This demonstrates in many cases how judicious use of
charts and other analysis could allow exiting at a much higher profit
than the Model captures on a mechanical basis.
