When in a deep drawdown, I keep telling myself if I can get out alive, I will never overleverage again, but then I do it again. I'm learning though. I plan to trade with no leverage for awhile, and cautiously use 2X leverage on occasion going forward. I am confident that posting my drawdowns...

I agree about the downtrend in the long term. But today at around 10:30, it bottomed and began an uptrend the remainder of the day. It hadn't done this in the previous several days. Also, SKF backtests well with this strategy. Plus, I am anticipating some profit taking tomorrow with earnings...

Actually EWZ is a 1200 share position. I forgot I lightened up at yesterday's close. Trend reversal is underway!

I am finding that I lose more on my losers, but I have more small winners. I am no expert on automation. I just use it to mimic how I trade discretionary. I guess even though I automate, I am a discretionary trader at heart. I currently have a 2000 sh ETF position on the Brazil index using...

It's time to get long GXG, Glbl X FTSE Colombia 20

Yes, that is a problem. I can't help it that equities and sectors often move up and down together. I need different non correlated strategies. Sold TMF premarket at 61.93

Stop moved to 61.93 to protect profits.

Long TMF, Direxion Daily 20+ Yr Trsy Bull 3X, 800 @ 61.66. Stop 50, target 70. There is a lot of headline press about markets near all time highs. I expect short term profit taking, and flight to treasuries.

I will be including updated profit distribution of trades. So far, in line with expectations. I want to see twice the gains in the 0 to 2% range as apposed to 0 to -2%, which is where the majority of trades occur. In addition, an overall slight right shift in the bell curve should be observed.
