Yes, I have very nice net profits from trading the systems this
year and I appreciate that. Trading options in the 15-min
time window can be stressful but can be very profitable. But
leverage is also available through futures. It is on my todo
list to become more familiar/comfortable with trading futures with
good risk management.
Matt, two things. 1. Regarding the signal to take a second entry
in the SPY QE 3.2, you had sold 1/2 of the first entry for that
strategy on 9/28 due to market conditions. Your posting
implies that you would still buy two option contracts for the 2nd
entry today as you normally would, rather than half as many.
Is that correct?
2. For what it's worth, I'll share how I screwed up
yesterday. I did sell half of two different option positions for
SPY Bear long 1st and 2ns entries, and bought a new one for SPY
Bear Exhaustion as I meant to. But in the scramble to get
this done before 4:15 pm, I lost track of the need to set stops for
the remaining SPY Bear Long options. I am paying dearly for it
today! Lesson learned on my ability to set up multiple trades
under time pressure.
Thank you Matt for the systems. Agreed that it is up
to us to keep track of our trades for each system separately.
I do it with a spreadsheet that also tallies my
gains/losses. If we don't follow all the system signals,
that's our individual decision but knowing if/how you'd do it is
valuable information.
Hello, concerning the hi mid lo 1st entry on ES - is it
confirmed after refreshing ES again as planned? I need to
leave home and would like to know if I can enter the trade.
Thanks.
Hi Matt, on the speadsheet of MES trades I was wondering if you
meant to buy 2 contracts for the 2nd entries taken this week, to be
consistent with other 2nd entries made earlier. It only shows
1 contract on the spreadsheet. Thanks.
Hello Matt, thank you for working on extending the SPY strategy
to more ETFs. I read in a recent newsletter that you plan to
extend it to TLT. I was wondering if you would provide it for
another major asset class represented by an index of commodities
like DBC or DJP, if it is applicable to them.
Ditto. I don't know if I'd have Matt's patience. Is
it because there has been a large investment in writing strategies
in TradeStation's proprietary language? But some converters
to other languages seem to be available.
For the QE BTS 3.2 system 1st entry long, shouldn't it be : $10K
SPY (rather than SSO), 1 (rather than 2) SPY May 20th call options
with 408 strike price ?
Hello Matt, thank you for setting up ZOOM access to the KISS
charts. Would it be possible to add real-time daily KISS charts for
gold and long-term treasury bonds (TLT)? I am interested in
possible buy signals and DVT levels.
It is possible that $SPX would bounce back above the 3304 DVT
level for the daily KISS system. Would you consider the sell
signal triggered intra-day or on a closing basis under that
system?
