Trading System Signals on 03/17/2025

The stock indexes continued their Friday bounce with a strong and steady rally starting at 1pm EST. The VIX moved down to the 20's. It felt like an effort to change the trend. We typically see stronger bounces after a sell off like this. This bounce looks weak relative to recent historical bounces, the energized counter trend rallies in a bear market, and the distance and speed from the highs. The market looks like a potential bull trap, attracting buyers with the feeling that they are getting in at a good price, and even potentially going long with some leverage, only to see the market rollover once again.


The One Million MNS and 250K remained selective the way we did last week during higher volatility while looking for more steady state market conditions. We had one scratch trade around breakeven. The Sibilance NQ that we are tracking is Version 12. It went through a losing streak last week and was down -$5,955 hypothetically but was up today +$4,692.50 based on hypothetical results. We will be releasing Version 20 of Sibilance NQ to members this week and sending out updates tomorrow to further improve synchronization and efficiency. Version 20 will also change the based strategy selection of removing 3 and adding 3. For live trading in the One Million MNS and 250K we like the Sibilance NQ Version 20 going forward.


Sibilance NQ is a Portfolio Money Management Algorithm that trades the composite of many strategies on one chart. The value in this is the ability to see the backtested combined results of all strategies in one performance summary and add additional rules to the portfolio as a whole that can be backtested and automated in the same setup. The combined composite signal has a one bar delay on one minute bars and is not exactly the same as trading all systems separately, especially when adding additional money management rules to the signal.


The Stock Index Portfolio 10 was updated to the Stock Index Portfolio 11 for tomorrow's trade with strategies sent out to Stock Index Portfolio subscribers. We are simply adding Viper 2025 NQ v2 to this setup. The hypothetical results for the Stock Index Portfolio 10 was +$3,190 per E-mini and 1/10th per Micro. Viper 2025 NQ v2 was down today and adding it gives us a better risk to worse case drawdown entry point. The screenshot for this portfolio below shows the hypothetical signals.


The hypothetical results for the 50K Portfolio was +$6,765.00


The hypothetical results for the Two System NQ Portfolio was +$1,975 with a nice short from V-Reversal NQ.


The hypothetical results for the Five System NQ Portfolio was +$225
