I believe the distinction here is that in the past the IWM Robot would trade neutral signals, leaving it to Billy to determine whether the trade should be long or short depending on his pivot setups. (I think I have this right.)

So "All Signals" includes those trades as well as the buy/strong buy and sell/strong sell trades; the "Strong Signals" measures only includes buy/strong buy and sell/strong sell signals.

Pascal/Billy need to confirm this, to be sure.

Thanks Adam,

I found the other thread you referred to, and Billy does confirm your understanding. I wish I could stop bothering you (or Pascal or Billy), but I'm still left with my original question. The Evolution paper does not quantify the RR advantage in trading only "strong" signals as they are labeled on the robot page (differently from how the paper defines them). I have the same question regarding the GDX robot even though there have been no recent changes to it. I remember a discussion on this topic stating that "strong" signals -- 20% of all signals -- are responsible for 80% of the robots' gains. Do you (or Billy or Pascal) know if this is still correct for either or both robots?

Thanks again,

Neil
