Trading System Signals on 11-12-2025

The quick sell off at the open in the Nasdaq 100 futures, after taking out the highs on the week was interesting. It was the type of move that you might expect to see continue lower. Many strategies worked the short side while some worked the long side in the stock indexes. The market just went flat, sideways, and choppy, ending the day in an uneventful afternoon. The frequency, depth, and duration of sell offs is unprecedented, especially in a market that is overbought fundamentally and technically.

The afternoon was so "listless" that V-Reversal did not trade today and the Two System Portfolio NQ stayed flat.

The Nasdaq strategies were net short and were positioned to do well with a continuation move lower. The institutional "prop up" that seems to kick in at the lows of the morning to protect the option selling strategies until the close, was there today, containing the move lower. The continuation lower is currently happening in the afterhours, but still holding the day session lows and supporting 25,500 in the NQ futures with a low of 25,501.50.

The 50K Portfolio led the way today on a percentage of account size with a nice bounce after an extended losing streak.

Trade of the Day

The move of the day was Silver 15M BO A, capturing $9,750 per contract with a nice gain in the Silver Portfolio 16 that was recently in nearly a $15k drawdown.
