Trading System Signals on 08/20/2024

The win streak ended today for the Stock Index Portfolio 18 with hypothetical results of -$450 on the E-minis and -$44.50 on the Micros. The hypothetical results for the One Million MNS 130 was up +2,672.50 and the 250K Portfolio was up +$534.50.


We are waiting for the drawdown entry alert. A rough estimate for the One Million MNS 130 shows that approximately 80% of the profits are in the first 1/2 of the month. With the upcoming Jackson Hole meeting and the recent runup, we could see more "toneless" price action which could give us a good entry point.


The One Million MNS 130 highlight was in the metals with nice counter trend trades in Gold and Silver.


The drawdown entry alerts for the One Million MNS is typically between 25-30K while the drawdown entry alerts on the Stock Index Portfolio 18 is typically between 10-12K.
