Our extensive back testing convinced us to go live with the
Global Tactical Opportunity Portfolio (GTOP)
Before we decided to go ''live'' with the investment strategy, we thoroughly tested our systems. In fact, we used an independent firm/website database for independent result verification.
The tests found that by making changes to the Global Tactical Opportunity Portfolio (GTOP) portfolio each Month/Quarter based on a Proprietary Formula/Special Relative Strength Formula we have developed, then making minor adjustments each month using the same relative strength formula, the investment strategy had impressive potential.
The GTOP Investment Strategy also worked well in controlling Risk in down markets as it shifts assets out of weak asset classes into asset classes that show higher relative strength.
This strict rules-based Investment Strategy works well in Up and Down Markets at controlling risk and providing upside potential, growth and income.
Between 12/31/2002 and 12/31/2011, which was a period that contained one of the greatest Bull Markets of all time and one of the worst Bear Markets in history, the GTOP Investment Strategy backtest results would have produced a return of:
711% GTOP GROWTH,
301% GTOP CONSERVATIVE GROWTH,
vs the S & P 500 return of 66.9%, with less volatility.*

*The backtest assumes 5 ETF’s Growth Portfolio GTOP (from encompassed ETF’s) monthly, are equally weighted (within each portfolio) at the start of each period. If different update schedules are chosen for each portfolio, the frequency of this rebalancing is determined by the shortest update schedule selected. Volatility is the annualized standard deviation of daily returns.
