How can PCI be applied in trading?

The personal composite trading instrument &SumOIL/GAS is used for oil and natural gas pair trading, as well as multi-year comparative analysis of the spread and the instruments themselves – continuous futures on Brent oil, WTI oil and natural gas. For example, by building a percentage chart in the NetTradeX terminal for the spread &SumOIL/GAS and three instruments #C-BRENT, OIL and #C-NATGAS (Fig.1) the 5-year relative dynamics (starting from 2010) of these energy assets and oil-natural gas spread can be studied. As is evident from the chart, buying the spread, that is buying oil and selling natural gas, yielded substantially higher returns during most of that period than buying the assets themselves.
