The trading systems will generate trading signals for long and short trades for short term traders who seek to capitalize on price fluctuations during the day.

Our strategies can be leased or purchased individually or in portfolio combinations.
73.9% of the Cobra III E-mini S&P $600 Profit Target trades have been profitable this year. The average trade profit after slippage and commission is $258 on 23 trades in 2021.
Even though past performance is not indicative of future results, new equity peaks on existing strategies always bring some validation to your strategy.
This strategy was originally being developed in 2005. We recently added a VIX filter so that it won't trade if VIX > 100 (which has never happened). This doesn't change the strategy since it has never happened but with VIX data only going back to 2003, that is how far our backtest goes.

The Nasdaq Composite has never traded this many points above its 200 day moving average!
On a percentage basis, it is nearly 20% above its 200 day moving average. During the Pandemic, it was 22% below its 200 day moving average.
How often does this happen?
We look at the extreme moves in the Nasdaq composite over the years and believe it or not, there are several times in the history of the Nasdaq Composite when it has traded at the levels and beyond based on a percentage level above its 200 day moving.
We see many cases that when the Nasdaq gets near the levels, often times there can be more of a consolidation than a sell off.
In January 1999, the Nasdaq Composite rose to these levels in a similar straight line higher. The market then become more choppy while maintaining its uptrend and then proceeded to go parabolic to trade 35% above its 200 day moving average.
It more than doubled in price from when it first traded at these levels. We all know that the dot com bubble eventually crashed. It typically takes some time for the market to reverse and crash when it becomes this overbought. History does not always repeat itself in the same way.
Could the Nasdaq Composite go to 25,000 in the next 16 months? It is possible. Could it reverse today and crash? Yes, this is also possible.
The key point is that markets can become wildly speculative for different reasons. In this case, the Federal Reserve's monetary policy has provided more liquidity since March 23, 2020 than in its entire history. So while we have a pandemic that has hurt the economy since February 2020, speculators have used the easy monetary policy provided by the Federal Reserve to drive prices higher in equities and most notably tech stocks.
It is almost as if tech stocks have become a "safe haven" for assets. Even though bubbles don't typically stem from liquidity driven pandemics, they are typically a result of massive speculation.
We are using our automated trading strategies to take mostly long trades in the stock index futures such as the E-mini Nasdaq and E-mini S&P while staying nimble and looking for opportunities to take short trades as well using our Market Portfolios.

Consistent profits in the first three days of August help recover the losses in many of the portfolios from July.
The All 77 Strategy Access Portfolio has recovered July losses with nearly 20K of profits on the month in the first 3 trading days. It was near a worse case drawdown at the end of the month and is about 11K away from equity peaks.
The Stock Index Portfolio 19 has lagged since it has been a focused stock index portfolio that achieves most of its gains from day trade profits on a focused set of stock index strategies. The day trade range has been narrow so far this month and Nighttrader E-mini S&P has not signaled any trades this month so far.
We discuss each of the 9 portfolios through Wednesday as well as the profits last night in Gold.
Two new strategies were released at the end of July: Tick Fader and Dynamic Tick Pullback (aka Federal Reserve Stimulus Trading System). Tick Fader has been added to the Portfolio Calculator and the Portfolio Calculator has been updated through August 5, 2020.

The Portfolios were mostly down in July, near worse case drawdowns. The 25K-50K Portfolo was the only portfolio with gains on the month but did endure a drawdown going into the end of the month. The gains at the beginning of the month in the 25K-50K were enough to still give it a nice gain for the month.
It was the first losing month in 2020 for many of the Portfolios.
The massive choppy trading pattern of the last 7 days was one of the more extreme patterns I have seen. All of the portfolios had drawdowns into the end of the month. The Stock Index Portfolio 19 which made new equity peaks about 7 trading days before the end of the month hit a worse case drawdown on the last day of the month.
We have seen this before and often times see extreme patterns that go against us in the short term that disappear on the new month. August will shift its focus towards the election in November and I believe we will move out of this range bound territory in one direction or the other.
The first video is about 20 minutes and is a mini webinar on how to view the drawdowns and manage the drawdowns along with some discussion on two new strategies in two more videos that we release going into August: 1.) the Federal Reserve Stimulus Trading System and 2.) TICK Fader.
The strategies will be sent out to All Strategy Access Tradestation subscribers before Monday. It will take slightly longer to finish them in Ninjatrader.
Tick Fader has been added to the Portfolio Calculator and the Portfolio Calculator has been updated through July 31, 2020.
Tick Fader may be added to some of the other portfolios. Still doing research on that.....
If you like to start a portfolio during a sharp drawdown as we go into a new month, Monday is a good time to begin!

Our Market Portfolios are simply a combination of our individual trading strategies. We can trade the market portfolios for your or you can setup a subscription to trade it. Portfolios typically require more capital and experience and are for those who understand the financial and technological risks of trading multiple strategies on multiple markets at the same time.
Some portfolios have more than 20 algorithmic trading systems and trade more than 10 futures markets at one time. Portfolio sizes can vary between 25K and $1 Million+. Apply below so that we can setup a call and discuss the details.
Trading a portfolio of strategies is the recommended approach for a diverse set of strategies. Any given strategy can under perform and go into worse case drawdowns. We prefer to trade a diverse group of methodologies including trend, counter trend, and mean reversion on multiple time frames and trade strategies that are in drawdowns as well as strategies that are at equity peaks.
The Money Management Algorithm Tool, also known as the Equity Curve Algorithm Tool is the only tool that will allow you to extensively test and automate the same setup as your back test. The tool is an open code solution with a Members Area that can be customized as there are an infinite number of combinations.
The Money Management Algorithms serve as a trading system for your trading system. Tracking and trading the equity curve of your trading system is a method you can use to determine how to allocate capital to your strategies and ultimately manage your money.
