I've got to give this up. While my money is out of gold
and qqq I figured I'd make some fast money on one of Matt's
trade idea last night. So many of them make so much
money, it's amazing how many big winners he has. But not the
one I pick. TWG triggered this morning, I put in a limit order to
buy at 2.50 while it was up around the high of 2.53.
Looked back an hour later, my buy had executed and it had
dropped to well below the trigger point where I would have put the
stop at 2.22, and I sold it at 2.10. 16% loss in an hour
Sheesh. Think I'll stick with the KISS systems from now
on.
Hi Performance KISS Question - I'm dipping my toe in the water
following a couple of 130 min index KISS trades. I got an SMS
that UPRO 130 went flat at 10:50 am at 82.68. I quickly
logged in to my account and sure enough, I was stopped out at
82.68. I got another SMS at 1:01 PM saying that UPRO 130 is
now Long. Thinking the system must know it's a V bounce, I
logged back in and rebought my position at 84.51 even though the
system price shows 83..45. The V bounce ended right about
when I bought at 2:10 pm, and it drifted down to close at 83.80.
It's off another 60 cents in pre-hours this morning.
I'm wondering if this is normal for these systems (I see it
happening with URA regularly), and that's just the nature of the
system?
Bought some TCPC in my Roth this week to reduce the volatility
and the trading. So now it's down 2.3% today. Do I need
to put in a stop like all the other holdings?
I don't understand the value in receiving 4 new very small STSes
in the last 2 days for AGQ 130. The last one was an increase
of 0.02. Also URA 60 went long yesterday at 9:40 (based on my
text), set a new STS at 11:41, and then went flat at 1:00.
Are these just a few little glitches/bugs still being worked
out in the Beta version of the High Performance KISS system?
SOXL Long - I've been waiting on the KISS system to buy SOXL
during this rally, but it didn't go long until yesterday.
After an almost 50% run up from the lows, it seems like too
big a risk to buy now, with all the indicators screaming oversold.
Pondering whether to take the plunge...
Thanks for explanation. I'm not so nimble, have to put
stop order in, have to wait for settled cash to buy again.
I'll just miss some. I'm waiting for wave C to buy
again.
IWM should have gone flat with a stop on Jan 5 - STS was
192.5 and the low that day was 192.29. My stop loss order was
hit, yet the table still shows it long.
It looks to me like CRWD got stopped on Oct 26 with a STS of
171.2 and a low that day of 170.17. Seems like the % gain
should restart with the new long.
Hey, is anybody (everybody) taking profits this afternoon.
I have several ETFs that have been on fire, what's the best
practice for taking profits. I'm new at this, but sure am
enjoying it!!

Am I missing something? Last nights commentary didn't match the charts - "Chart 13 on to the Q's" - still an SPX chart. Gave up listening.
