TrendMaster (ver 5.0, a.k.a. "Mr. T") is a trend-anticipating system which shows eye-popping results. Rather than a simple "trend-rider" which continually lags, TrendMaster uses pattern recognition to anticipate trend changes. It hunts for turns in market cycles using a proprietary decision matrix of 27 "trade triggers" (variants of classic technical indicators). In backtesting the annualized return (July 2017-July2018) of the top 100 largest capitalized equities, not only did its results beat the indexes, but it outstripped a buy-and-hold strategy by a whopping 700%: i.e., while the 100 largest equities had an average annual yield of 17%, the strategy produced a 129% return across the entire range of stocks.* Even more staggering results can be seen when using the system in strongly-trending markets like cryptos. (See, for instance, the particularly stunning results for Bitcoin Cash in the screen shot at the end). [[ *- data upon request ]]
The following charts give you some sample tests of best performing (top chart) and worst performing (bottom chart) equities, ETFs, and cryptos (July 2017-July2018 time range). [Note that, the "worst" performers only means worst by comparison. Often, these still beat Buy-and-Hold. As with the Litecoin returns at the end, when applied to cryptos within the 15min - 1day time frames, "worst" is sometimes still pretty good. Always backtest your market before fully investing.]

Note, of course, that any trend-anticipating bot has limitations. The Lower Performing results above show that because the system seeks gains in trends, it can underperform in choppy, aimless markets. Similarly, very short time frames (i.e. 1 - 5 minutes) can provide too many gaps and too few runs for it to reliably track. Backtesting is therefore essential to make sure this system is suitable for your (a) market, (b) time frame, and (c) trading mindset. On the other hand, a broad range of data show that almost any trending market, in almost any time frame, can be very productive.
