The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Alternatively, how about the SMA rule for getting out, one of Mungofitch's bottom catchers for getting back in, and then ignore the SMA rule until back above the SMA curve?

Has anyone looked at using the 99-day method? Use the momentum method as along as the last change in the 99-day channel was up. When the channel moves down, step aside. Mungofitch found that applying the 99-day rule to the S&P500 index not only reduced volatility but also increased the CAGR by a couple of percentage points.
