Live Trading System Signals on 06/03/2025

The stock indexes moved only modestly higher today (0.58% on the S&P and 0.79% on the Nasdaq 100) while the strategies were in sync with the market for some good gains in the portfolio with the Stock index Portfolio having one of its best days and hitting equity peaks. The Diversified Portfolio 42 hit equity peaks again today as well.


Every strategy in the Stock Index Portfolio 18 was up on the day.


In live trading for the One Million MNS we were up +2.4% and up $6,000 in the 250K Portfolio in live trade. We underperformed the hypotheticals based on some technical issues/setups.


Since we are at equity peaks and we have had a nice run, and after missing some gains from the technical issues, we will wait for a drawdown entry alert to scale back in. Additionally, we will monitor the Stock Index Portfolio 18 and Diversified 42 to determine which gives us the best risk profile. We prefer to reduce volatility and risk missing additional upside instead of capturing the brunt of a rapid drawdown after the recent runup and equity peak.


Since May 27, the One Million MNS is up over 9%.


A half day of some unfavorable price action could be enough to start scaling in.


V-Reversal had a nice short trade on the day with Elon Musk making comments about the new Budget. V-Reversal and Momentum Reversal were the only shorts in the portfolio today while all other strategies took the long side. The cycle of these moves was favorable so that all long and all short strategies were up on the day. HVDP had one long winner and one long loser but had a net gain on the day.



The market continues to remain strong with no news releases or economic data being able to keep the market down for long. The sentiment seems to be tilted very bullish though so a contrarian view could see the bearish side of the market in the second half of the week or more volatility.


The Nasdaq 100 is about 800 points from all-time highs. The indexes have moved higher with hesitation and chop the last few weeks as the "rage" buying has not been there.


The hypothetical results for the portfolios are below.

Stock Index Portfolio 18 (1 NQ) = +$18,110

Stock Index Portfolio 18 (3 NQ) = +$54,330

50K Portfolio = +$2,255

Diversified Portfolio 42 = +$9,632.50

EMINI NQ 2 System Portfolio = +$1975

EMINI NQ 3 System Portfolio II = +$3,150

EMINI NQ 4 System Portfolio = +$3,110

EMINI NQ 5 System Portfolio = +$6,395
