As every trader on the planet knows that markets are moving up more often than down, I wanted to get more precise info. I wrote simple python script that consumes closing price of each month since 1990 July till 2023 July.
Simple summary for Nasdaq index (Us100)
In total 392 months we had 83 months that generated negative return if position was held for a 12 months and 297 positive return for the same hold position time.
% ratio of long positions 78.15789473684211
% ratio of short positions 21.842105263157897
Here is a python code if you want to play around and change some parameters etc.
