Live Trading System Signals on 04/21/2025

The stock indexes traded in a steady downtrend throughout the day until the last hour when there was some dip buying. The selling was steep, but controlled, and not flashy or fast. In the Micro Nasdaq, the CME rejected some sell stop orders near the stop loss on V-Reversal. The exchange can reject market and stop market orders in fast markets. We have seen this during fast or flashy markets but we haven't seen it in awhile. It was interesting to see that today considering the market sell off was steady and controlled. Its important to keep an eye on your strategies when the markets are fast. Order rejects, limit moves, and exchange closures are events that could happen in fast markets that have to be managed.


The One Million MNS was up +1.3% (approximately $13K) with some nice shorts while the 250K Portfolio was up +$3,250 and ahead of the hypotheticals for Sibilance NQ trading 1 E-mini per signal per Million.



The hypothetical results for the other portfolios with $25 round turn slippage and commission per E-mini with a 1/10th estimate for Micros is listed below:


+--------------------------------+----------------------+

| Portfolio Combined Daily P/L

|--------------------------------+----------------------|

| Sibilance NQ 28 v24 (1 Emini) $10,778.75

| Stock Index Portfolio 11 $9,865.00

| 50K Portfolio $595.00

| EMINI NQ 2 System Portfolio -$1,255.00

| EMINI NQ 3 System Portfolio II -$1,305.00

| EMINI NQ 4 System Portfolio -$2,055.00

| EMINI NQ 5 System Portfolio $7,225.00

Gold Wave was one of the top strategies today that we talked about last week. It had a long signal on Friday at 3328 and is still long with an open position of about +$16,000 hypothetical. It's the type of trade that would be difficult to hold for a short term trader without a trading strategy. This is a hypothetical trade and a strategy we have been tracking. Some consideration of trading this strategy with a continued trend higher in Gold. Silver is also a consideration.
