Trading System Signals on 12/28/2023

Capstone Trading

The live trading system signals for the 250K Portfolio, Portfolio 53 was approximately + $750. The stock indexes were down on the day, Crude Oil was the big winner on the day with the new Cobra Crude 2024 capturing a nice short trade for +$1,600.


The hypothetical trading system results for the Stock Index Portfolio 27 E-mini was -$715.


The hypothetical trading system results for the Stock Index Portfolio 27 Micro was -$46.


Micro had one extra trade of +12.50 on Tick Wave MES short. Slightly better signals on some of the Micro trades as Micros performed better than Eminis.


With one trading day left in the year, the market seems to have run out of steam, a move to all-time highs by tomorrows close in the Nasdaq futures seems unlikely. It would be a very fast move based on the current ranges. 


Technically, the market remains bullish with narrow ranges and low VIXs (12.47 today). It is overbought but finding a top in an overbought market at this time of year with low volatility is challenging. I anticipate more of the same as we start 2024 but could see a 2018 scenario as VIX spiked at the end of January 2018 to set off a multi-year trend of higher VIX, ranges and volatility.
