SPY system update

    Posted by matt on 29th of Oct 2020 at 09:32 am

    I just sent out out this email and SMS regarding the Bear Long

    Good morning everyone, as you know after the market yesterday I sent out an alert that out of the 21 SPY systems, the Bear Long took a first entry. We did not see the trade at the cash close because of some Tradestation issues.  It was too late to purchase SPY call options as they stop trading at 4:15 EST however ETF's can be purchased up to 8 pm in after hrs.  

    Anyway should you wish to follow this system trade and you didn't purchase SPY yesterday in after hrs you could purchase SPY this morning as ES futures are only up about 7 points.  Also for the SPY call option trade I'm looking at Jan 15th Expiration date with a strike price of 317.  One could also look at the Dec 31st SPY call options with strike of 317 is a tad cheaper.  Realize with the VIX up at elevated levels the options are expensive here.

    If you haven't done so I suggest you look at the SPY system section and review the trade statistics for the Bear Long.  Also remember this system can have up to 3 entries should the market go lower over the next few days or couple weeks. 

    If you think the market may probe lower some you can always choose to wait and see if you can get better prices on SPY or the options.

    I'm happy that I sent

    I'm happy that I sent out that SPY bear market long system trade again this morning along with the option trade when the market was basically flat

    Thanks, it gave me courage to pull the trigger even though I already knew I wanted too, LOL... I was watching the NYMO which was confirming the trade. 

    Question on the daily SPX KISS system: Are you staying long officially? I see the table looks like the trade is still open. I know it hit the first stop yesterday at 3304. And you made some newsletter comments about having it be our choice to follow that first stop or give it more room with the initial stop, which is 3209. 

    The stats on the table

    The stats on the table I've shown for the last month  uses the first DVT if there are only 2 of them as I mentioned last night and a few weeks back that cut out a lot of whipsaws in the past. you guys should use what fits your style and some like the 120 min etc.

    Yes, I agree, just wanted
