Is HOST a trading system, a trading method, or a timing method?
In actuality HOST can be all or the above or none of the above. In its purest form HOST trades are historical data. They merely indicate what has happened in the past. They DO NOT predict the future. On a broader scale, however, the KDT’s in HOST likely reflect intrinsic seasonal moves within circumscribed periods of time in each of the markets. Hence, HOST is somewhat of a fundamental indicator as opposed to a technical indicator. When combined with risk management principles HOST can develop into a trading system or method, but this is up to you.
