Good afternoon everyone, as you know
the market has been selling off this week strongly, especially
following the FOMC. The SPY Pro high probability systems have been
in the safety of cash during this time. However today with the
market sell off, two of the sub systems are going long via 1st
entries (Strap and Trend systems). The Strap sub system has
very strong statistics with a historical trades of 93.25% winners
and 74 total trades since 1995. However the Strap tends to be a
very quick trade, lasting on average 3 - 5 days only.
The Trend Trade has good statistics,
however out of all the sub systems it has the potential for most
draw down, so keep that in mind, there are quite a few situations
in the past where it took 3 entries.
For trades today we are 1st entry
long trades for both sub systems:
For Strap Long: - Long 34 shares of SPY ETF ($10K)
- option: long one contract, Sept 20th 265 strike
price
For Trend Long - Long 34 shares of SPY ETF ($10K)
- option: long one contract, Oct 18th 259 strike price
Note options trade until 4:15, so
you have 15 min after the close to enter them
For the ETF you have up to 4 hrs as
ETF trades until 8 pm in after hrs market
enjoy the rest of your Friday and have a good weekend. I'll
update the website trades later today and I will be doing the
weekend newsletter
I never got the e-mail.
