Signals are issued for trading which may be at market open(MOO) the following day, or after-hours the same day (MOC) if a signals is issued prior to 500 pmET. Signal dates are denoted from the close of trading. There may be 2 signals for the same date if a recomendation is made at the close and them prior to the open. They will be designated as such: ie: 5/22 Long, and then 5/22a Short. In this scenario, the Short position was established on MOO 5/23.
These signals may be used to trade the QQQQ, IWM, SPY, MDY. Trading of all 4 vehicles with a 25% allocation allows for algorithm - driven cash management in addition to formulaic BUY/SELL signals. In this manner, the trading professional is employing a truly automated and systematic approach to trading. This also helps eliminate bias, or intuitive difficulty occasionally encountered by all of us when making the right trade.
Please note a 3% unleveraged day stop-loss level on these signals from point of entry. If market crosses stop level at close, it will be addressed as a stop, or long/short reentry for the close or subsequent open.
Plese check the pages prior to 5PM for after-market/end of day trades.
In our statistical analysis, there was no significant difference in Market on Close or Market on Open trades over a number of years, though in any given year, there may be a noteworthy difference. We will have much more statistical information on these systems including medallions.
