Abstract

In this note we study whether simple technical trading rules are pro table on the three Baltic stock markets. To statistically assess our ndings we consider the conventional t-test and a block-bootstrap procedure. The two evaluation methods give conflicting results. The t-test supports some of the rules, while the block-bootstrap does not.

Keywords: Baltic stock markets, technical trading rules, block bootstrap
