The stock indexes generated a slow, choppy, trend higher and the stock index trading systems were able to capture some nice longs in the portfolio. V-Reversal had a pretty good short. It was a small trade but the short side opportunity was very limited today and it exited based on the Accelerated Trailing Stop Loss.
One pattern we saw at the beginning of the year was in Gold. When it was up on the week, Friday's could be a decent sized profit taking day and a potential short signal for day traders. Gold futures are down -34.5 on the day but up about 100 on the week.
