Top Shorts, Market Diversity, Rollover Alert & Live Trading System Signals on 06/13/2025

Key Points for Friday's Report:

  • Top Shorts on the Day

  • New Hybrid D42 and SI 18 for Market Diversity and Drawdown Entry Alert

  • Monthly Cycle is favorable in second half of the month

  • Rollover Alert for Stock Indexes on Monday


The Top Shorts yesterday were TICK Wave and the two Cobra III Strategies. The screenshot indicates 2 contracts on each of these strategies on the June contract.



ROLLOVER ALERT: Monday we roll to the September contract. Be sure to change the M to U in your symbols on data1 only.


The One Million MNS started out with one contract of the Stock Index Portfolio 18 while rotating to the Hybrid D42 and SI 18. The results were -0.60% while the 250K Portfolio was down -$1,500 in live trading today with the hypotheticals for the new portfolio -1.95%.


This new portfolio trades Gold, Silver, Crude Oil, Natural Gas, Micro Bitcoin, E-mini S&P, and E-mini Nasdaq which expands our market diversity. This includes 48 strategies with the Stock Indexes trading 2 contracts except for a couple of redundant strategies. Lately our focus has been limited lately to the E-mini Nasdaq.

The One Million MNS is up about +4.4% on the month in live trade. The Hybrid D42 and SI 18 offer a 6% bounce back if there is a complete drawdown recovery with about a 2% risk to worse case drawdown.


We also like the timing for this since we notice that the monthly cycle is better in the second half the last couple of months. We started this month strong as a carryover from May but have seen markets that give more "lossy" signals since the 3rd trading day of the month.


The hypothetical results for this portfolio are below the daily results and also in the updated Portfolio Calculator through Friday, June 13, 2025.


The hypothetical results for the portfolios are below.

Stock Index Portfolio 18 (1 NQ) = -$1,920

Stock Index Portfolio 18 (3 NQ) = -$5,760

50K Portfolio = -$4,895

Diversified Portfolio 42 = -$12,275

Hybrid D42 and SI 18 = -$19,430

EMINI NQ 2 System Portfolio = -$1,130

EMINI NQ 3 System Portfolio II = -$3,580

EMINI NQ 4 System Portfolio = -$5,230

EMINI NQ 5 System Portfolio = -$2,155


The five things we like the most about the Hybrid D42 and SI 18 are:

  • Drawdown Entry Level

  • Favorable Monthly Cycle in Second Half of Month

  • Ability to Start an Extremely Strong Group of Strategies that is in a rapid drawdown

  • Market Diversity

  • Risk to Reward


Hybrid D42 and SI 18

Hypothetical Performance Summary


There was some selling based on the geopolitical response between the Israel and Iran conflict. Crude Oil was up over 7% while 30 Year Bonds sold off. 30 Year Bonds typically rally during middle Eastern geopolitical conflicts as a flight to safety. The VIX was up 15%.


The market continues to shrug off any bearish news and the price action at the end of the day almost looked like a human agenda, determined to keep the market from going any lower. It's a pattern we continue to see. With any sort of resolution between Israel and Iran, the market could surge to new highs in some overnight gaps. A continued conflict could generate a choppy but slow sell off.
