On a project such as this book, two requirements are necessary: contemplative seclusion and the basics of life: sleep, food, and something to pat. My dear wife, Ellie, and our furry animals kept me secure, satisfied, and hidden. For that, I am intensely grateful. Ellie deflected potential disturbances, not to mention providing timely sustenance; our goofy golden retriever, Posie, kept my feet warm during the cold Maine winter nights; and Frisbee, our long-haired, reject cat from the Colorado humane society, slept on my papers and accepted my occasional strokes of her fur. To them I dedicate this book.

Acknowledgments

In projects like this book, the Internet and ones computer become your best friends. They provide information, complete complicated calculations, and remain alive 24 hours of the day. I am a night owl and prefer the quiet and calm of late nights and early mornings. I have a relatively small office at home that looks over the ocean during the day but could be anywhere at night. To me, this is the perfect work environment.

Working late at night means that email becomes the primary method of communication. Through such give and take over the wires, many people familiar with the work I was doing assisted me. They helped considerably in the books organization and application. Special thanks I owe to Tom McClellan (www.mcoscillator.com) and Jason Goepfert (www.sentimenttrader.com) for their willingness to provide their historical data. Tom also reviewed the manuscript for me and made numerous helpful suggestions and changes to my fractured prose. Also helpful were Investors Intelligence (www.investorsintelligence.com), the Economist magazine (www.economist.com), and the Commodities Research Bureau (www.crbtrader.com). While I didnt use all their data, they were very willing to assist and were especially generous with their knowledge of economic statistics.

The primary methodology used in the book is called walk-forward optimization. This technique is relatively new to the securities business and technical analysis specifically, and is not widely known or understood. I, too, was a novice when I began. I am especially grateful for help with it from Rob Hanna (quantifiableedges.blogspot.com), Bob Fulks of Pleasant Bay Capital Management, Wouter Oosthuizen of the Grail optimization system (now an integral part of TradeStation analysis software), and Berkhard Eichberger of the Diamond Back Testing with Walk Forward Manager system from Professional Software Solutions.

No book is the sole effort of the author. Many competent people at FT Press, most of whom I have never met, are responsible for the multiple aspects of publishing this book. I thank those with whom I have had direct contactJim Boyd, Kristy Hart, Jess DeGabriele, Lori Lyons, and Cheri Clarkand those who are hidden in the corporate structure somewhere for whatever excellent work they do to get this project completed and on the shelves.

Finally, as the dedication explains, I could not have finished this project without the help and encouragement from my dear wife, Ellie, and our furry household creatures.
