Thanks,

I have to do my homework to create a consensus of bullish and bearish indicators.

To find the ones that work best, I should back test them in relation to an index.

But maybe, investing in "SAAS stock" has different trends than SP500 stocks.

My question is, in order to create a good team of bullish and bearish indicators, do you backtest them with wide indices like SP500 or Russell 2000 or with more specific ETF's (might be WCLD if I want to invest in "Saul stocks" or IWM if we intend to invest in small-cap stocks).

Thanks again,

Regards.

Juan Carlos
