Trendfinder Trading Systems

It was a great month for these systems.  Every system had a gain.  In fact, all of them except the Bobcat systems had very nice profits.

It was a winning month overall even though most systems had a loss.  The Lion systems and Tiger were the standouts.

It was an outstanding month for every system.  They thrived on the volatility the markets had this month.  The total combined net profit was $20,550.

Every system except Cougar had a good month (Cougar was essentially flat).  The total net profit was $7850.  Volatility continually rose all month.  With higher volatility these systems thrive.  My guess is that May will be a nicely profitable month as well….of course we’ll have to wait and see.

Every system had a loss for the month.  The total net loss was $2710, which equates to giving back about 1/3 of February’s profits.

February was a great month for these systems.  Every system had gains and they combined for an $8020 net profit per contract.

January was a lackluster month as far as performance of these trend-following strategies go.  3 systems had small profits but Bobcat I got stopped out multiple times and it’s losses brought the sum of all systems to a $480 net loss for the month.

December was a pretty quiet month.  3 systems had gains and 3 systems had losses for a net $290 loss.  January should see some activity return to the market, which typically means profits for these systems.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!  I wish you all a very prosperous, happy and fulfilling 2010!

This month these systems gave back some of October’s profit.  They totaled a $2120 loss ($40 for commission and slippage included with each trade).  3 systems were around break-even, 2 had small losses, and 1 had the bulk of the loss.

Trendfinder’s systems totaled $4660 in profits for October.  Tiger was the big winner.  The first two weeks were losing weeks but the last two were very profitable.  Only one system didn’t finish with a profit and its loss was very small.

Volatility increased this month and so did profits.  When the stock market declines the volatility typically increases which increases daytrading profits.  This tendency can make daytrading futures a very nice component in a well balanced portfolio.
