As for the number of years required to develop a strategy, I don't have a clear answer either. I suppose some strategies are built to benefit from...
Spurred on by some ET members, notably @SPYAlgoTrader, @d08 and @traider, I decided to conduct a further back in time test for my main strategy....
The data I have at the moment doesn't go that far back, so I can't answer this question. However, you guys are getting me curious so I will get...
