Coffee, alas I only got 36/329 for 51 unit profit despite two $50+ winners, both inside your timeframe.
This represents 26/275 for 50 odd unit loss outside your scan, perhaps a good example of how curve-fitting past data doesn't extrapolate into real time especially when reliant on ultra long-shot repeatability.

Tony,

Thanks for the test.

Coffee.
