Here are a few strategies I found on another forum. If you can backtest any of these and verify them, please let me know. I'd also like to know what program he uses that doesn't require any programming for backtesting. Any thoughts?
"Note: These are all tested from 12/30/2002-Current in the 30-Minute Time Frame. I found these in less than 5 minutes, so don't turn into macho man if you have better strategies.
All 30-Minute Intervals
Monday
Short- If the Monday 2:30PM CST bar closes higher than the previous close, and the 3:00PM CST bar closes higher than the 2:30PM bar, enter short at 3:30PM CST and exit at 8:00PM CST. If Monday's are up between 2 & 3 CST, they usually tumble from 4pm-7pm CST
Long- If the Monday 8:00PM CST bar closes lower than the previous close, and the 8:30PM CST bar closes lower than the 8:00PM bar, enter long at 9:00PM CST and exit at 12:00AM CST
Tuesday
Long- If the Monday 9:00PM CST bar closes lower than it opened, and the 9:30PM CST bar closes lower than it opened, enter long at 10:00PM CST and exit at 11:00PM CST
Success rate for these is in the 70's. I'm just starting to trade again since they have software programs that don't require coding to backtest strategies such as these"
