Trendfinder Trading Systems

All trades were winners today.  3 systems got in the up move early and had nice gains.

The bullishness continued today with all major market indexes making new highs for the year.

4 systems went long this morning looking for a continued up move that did not materialize.  A choppy day leads to losses with trend trading.

Today was an active and unprofitable day.  The stock markets had another very small range day.  This morning all systems were short looking for a move down, and then reversed long looking for a move up the rest of the day.  Neither direction had any follow through, and therefore all systems had losses today.

Trendfinder’s systems had no trades today.

Winners across the board today.  All 5 systems caught the upmove for decent wins.

Today had the smallest range in memory.  Certainly not surprising to have a consolidation day after yesterdays large range and down move.  4 systems went short and exited near break-even.  1 system (Tiger) went long and had a loss today.

The month started of profitably.  2 wins and 1 tiny loss.

Anemic last day of the month.  3 systems traded short and exited after the market rebounded, then 1 system (Lion) went long to make up for the losing trade and ended the day flat after commissions and slippage.

Only 2 strategies had signals today – one small winner and one small loser.

Winning day today.  4 systems had profits and 1 had a tiny loss.  The losing streak for Bobcat I and II ended today.  I was getting tired of posting losers, but I will always post the good, bad and ugly…and with realistic trading costs included (commission and slippage).
