Ever since the pre-market surge on Monday morning, the stock indexes have been wide ranging and noisy favoring the counter trend and mean reversion strategies more than the trend strategies. It is a "digital" news market where you we see price moves from one level to the next in 1 minute without a "second act".

When I look at the countertrend and mean reversion strategies in the NQ Portfolio 27, they are near an equity peak while the trend strategies are sitting at a worse case drawdown "but barely" and were recently at equity peaks.

NQ 27 Trend Strategies

Its been a tough 3 days during the day trade session after Monday's pre-market surge took a lot of the energy out of the market. This was similar to last week and a pattern we see from time to time where the weekly cycle favors the end of the week.

V-Reversal had some nice shorts today after nearly being stopped out on the first trade and then enduring significant slippage on the second trade during its trailing stop loss. There were some continuous spikes during that time period as it seems the market is anxiously waiting for another opportunity to surge another 1000 points in the Nasdaq.
Liberation NQ continues to take advantage of the contrary nature of this market and synthetically joining the option sellers by fading the futures. The contrary nature is based on such a continuously range bound market with a VIX at 25 and large moves in precious metals, energy, and crypto along with the constant breaking news and uncertainty.
Liberation NQ was 1 for 2 today for a small gain.
