General trading system rules:
Buy accumulation cylinders.
Sell when you get the teeth hard.

I make every purchase less than one percent of my portfolio.

I've got an easy way to tell when a fund gets below the 20-day SMA and needs to be sold.

I've got an easy way to look for funds to buy.

I prefer to buy a fund in or near the green zones.
