Does Trend Trading the ASX Work?

One of our readers asked us what the performance is of our flagship MATI trend signal for the Australian ASX index. This question came following our blog post on the turn around dates for the MATI for the S&P 500.

See below our response to the various questions our reader was askling us. We think it could be of interest to you as well.

Australian ASX Trend Signal turning dates


You can see that 2008 and 2010 were “difficult” years for Trend Investing due to the fluctuations in the market.

However, overall the MATI results are good for the ASX.

From the beginning of 2006 till now, the MATI for the ASX gives a return of 37% while the index itself is just 15% up (this is compounded)

When following a Trend Signal like the MATI, I accept that it is not always right, but over the years it is much more profitable.
