Extremely interesting article, thank you very much!

Just to make sure I have understood this correctly: Does the "cool down" period (15 days) start on the day of purchase or the next day?

@Spouh you hold the investment for at least k days. So if you are still trading after the market, then you only start the next day and if you are trading before the market, then on the current day

@SemiGrowth Thank you very much for your answer!
So if I have understood this correctly, the deadline starts on the day of purchase.
For example, if I bought on May 2, 2025, I would not check until May 23 (15 working days).
Is that correct?

@Spouh So let's assume that the indicators are on buy at the close on May 1st, then you buy early on May 2nd and only look at the indicators again at the close on the 22nd (and then trade early on the 23rd if there is a sell signal).

@Spouh if you buy right at the close, then you buy directly on May 1 after the US close and can then trade again on the 22nd directly after the US close

@SemiGrowth I had actually understood that, thanks for the confirmation!

Regarding the buy/sell signal, the supports used are the SP500 Index (SPX) and not the ETF and the TIP ETF from ishares in USD (ISIN: US4642871762)?

@Spouh the S&P 500 Total Return index (^SP500TR) and the (TIP). I only have the tickers in my head but it should be your TIP ETF

@Spouh it is the TIP ETF, but in dollars and with dividends

@SemiGrowth Thanks again for your feedback.
Does it really change anything in your backtest if you take ^SPXTR instead of ^SPX?
