Here we have the Sell-in-may-and-go-away strategy applied to the AEX and what would have happened historically had you used this strategy. I use the monthly chart.

Vertical lines:
Green = Buy (september)
Red = Sell (may)

Rectangles:
Green = profited on the strategy
Red = lost on the strategy
light blue = Holding would have been more profitable than buy/selling for this period of time (notably in clear uptrends)

Overall it looks like this strategy doesn't work for the AEX, though we'd have to calculate our returns and losses to know for sure.
Buy and hold clearly looks like a winner (but remember the secret third step in this strategy ;KNOW WHEN TO SELL; )


Hier is de Sell-in-may-and-go-away strategie toegepast op de AEX index en wat historisch zou zijn gebeurd had je deze strategie gebruikt. U ziet de maandelijkse kaart.

Verticale lijnen:
Groen = Kopen (september)
Rood = Verkopen (mei)

Balkjes:
Licht blauw = Kopen en vasthouden is winstgevend hier.

Over het algemeen lijkt deze strategie niet erg goed te werken, maar we zouden onze winst/verliezen daarvoor moeten berekenen om er zeker van te zijn.
Wel is duidelijk dat Kopen&Vasthouden veel beter werkt, maar vergeet dan niet de geheime 3e stap ;WETEN WANNEER JE MOET VERKOPEN;.
