Trend specialist did not pass the gate
The trend specialist on the daily chart has finished all 5 of 5 folds. Its excess result was -217.6 bps, against a holding baseline of -110 bps. That means it did not beat holding the market after fees, so it did not pass the gate. We say this plainly: this specialist does not move on as it is.
