The signal on this page is delayed; don't use it for trading!

B = Buy. S = Sell. C/B = Cover and Buy. S/S = Sell and Short. C/C = Cover and Cash.

Date = month / day / year.

Note: The QQQQ is not the most profitable trading vehicle you can trade with my system, but it is what my system follows so that's why I have it here. You can trade QLD and many others instead of it. 

Even though my signal goes short; you should not go short unless you know what you are doing. My system is 100% on the market Long/Short on TimerTrack to see what the results would be at the end of the year. This way there could be some more small losses, but just maybe a couple good bull runs will cover the whip saw losses? We'll see! 

If you traded QQQQ long only you would have made about 30% and that's no hay considering how safely and easily you would have made it. To make 30% year after year with a little risk is something that only a few pros have been able to accomplish... let's hope I can continue wining streak. Many funds loose money even in a good year, and most pros are lucky to beat the S&P. 

If you would make 30% a year for 20 years and your starting capital is only $10K, you would still end up with almost 4 million dollars! That would be a nice sum of money for retirement, don't you agree? Don't underestimate the power of compounding. 

Will the results be this good in the future? I am sure there are going to be some whipsaw and other unexpected problems ahead of us. I estimate that up to 1/3 of the signals my system produces can be false/whipsaw. All in all 2008 is for sure going to be a lot more challenging for all of us than 2007. The key is to protect your capital. 

Below the results for 2007 (10 months) on 4 sample portfolios. 

The results are LONG ONLY except short QQQQ or Super Short ProFund QID. 

S-QQQQ = Short QQQQ

L-QID = Long QID, which means same as shorting QQQQ.

(You have to be careful with QID and other inverse ETFs, because they can be confusing. When you go long on them, you actually short the general market.)

Above means that if you had $40,000 investment capital and had invested $10,000 on each of the 4 stocks Long only and would have shorted on QQQQ or QID with $10K you could have made a profit of $13,000 with the portfolio #1. 

Your $40K capital would have grown:

... to $53K with the portfolio #1. 

... to $63K with the portfolio #2. 

... to $64K with the portfolio #3. 

... to $72K with the portfolio #4. 

The above information points clearly out that 2007 was a bull year (primary trend was up). In some cases Long/Short results were actually less than Long only. But if we go into a bear market the long profits will evaporate and the short profits will increase a great deal because the primary trend will be down. That's why it is important to be ready to short when the markets go into bear market.

If you had the nerves to trade Long and Short: QLD, QID, GDX and GG the results would have been: (348%) $34,800 profit on a $40K investment capital. That's a profit of 85%.

Below some more long only results for 2007.

NOTE: Double check all the numbers. The results are hypothetical. In real life trading no one would always get the exact market open price. There are risks involved with investing, including possible loss of principal. The results don't take into account any brokerage fees, dividends, interest or taxes that are associated with investing. Also, past performance is no guarantee or indicator for results in the future and each individual is always solely responsible for his / her own investment decisions and which equities or financial instruments to trade.
