Short Positions

Figure 18.2 illustrates the short positions for pull-backs-in-trends. These signals are not necessarily exactly where we would have placed them by hand, but they are fairly close and illustrative of the pattern; the first short signal is perhaps the closest to the kind we marked.

Table 18.2 presents the performance summary for this pattern. There were fewer trades taken for the shorts (only 26) than the longs; 81 percent were wins. The drawdown was a little lower than that for the longs: $8,975, which is a little on the high side for a net profit of $20,425. The basic behavior of the two systems was similar; however, we would not feel comfortable trading this system on its own because of the small number of trades taken over the three-year period.

Bottoms (Long) Positions

Figure 18.3 is the chart for the multiple-bottoms pattern (long positions). This chart clearly illustrates the multiple-bottoms pattern and, in many cases, the network marked the bottoms almost exactly where we would have by hand.

Table 18.3 provides the performance summary for this pattern. This system did very well: 95 percent (or 18 out of the 19 trades taken) were winners. Again, the drawdown ($12,025) is a little high for the net profit ($29,500). The number of trades is smaller than we would like for statistical reasons.
