Trading System Signals on 11-21-2025 and Additional Equity Peaks

On Friday, the Stock index Portfolio 18, Stock Index Portfolio 37, Diversified Portfolio 57 and Two System Portfolio NQ all surged to new equity peaks. The trading ranges have been more favorable since the beginning of October. This week is Thanksgiving week. We don't trade on holiday half days. This Thursday, the futures are open but stocks are closed. Friday, the stock market closes early. We turn off automated trading during Thanksgiving on Thursday and Friday.

After some recent dawdown entry alerts, we are at equity peaks. One benefit of equity peaks is the opportunity to pause and get back in on a drawdown entry alert to limit downside risk. Waiting for the signals to go through a losing streak and then starting again during a drawdown can limit risk to worse case drawdown and allow a trader to trade through and manage a new worse case drawdown in the future if one occurs. Sometimes strategies hit equity peaks and really runup. Stopping at equity peaks can sometimes position you to miss some of the biggest runups.
