Holly Morning Huddle: Shorts Outnumber Longs in 7 Algos

Holly Morning Huddle: Shorts Outnumber Longs in 7 Algos

Jul 1, 2016

Good morning.

As of today, Friday, July 1, 2016, we’re halfway through the year and the return from my trading performance since January 1 stands at +34.5 accumulated points vs the benchmark SPY’s performance of +4.0 points over the same period. On Thursday my performance gained +1.4 from Wednesday on 40 trades while the SPY jumped +2.8.  

Today’s a new day and I am prepared for the market open with 7 themes/strategies I determined overnight will best match what the market throws at us. I may or may not use all these intraday strategies depending on whether or not all the criteria for each are satisfied.
Of these 7 strategies selected today 2 are Long, bullish in outlook. 5 are Short, bearish in outlook. Ready for anything, but especially for short opportunities. The long strategy, ‘Tailwind’, in the list below has the highest Win %s based on optimized, backtested scenarios.
Here are the algos:

No. Win % Strategy L/S
1 64.8 Headwind Short
2 62.0 Knocking on Resistance Short
3 62.5 Power Hour Long Long
4 61.7 Power Hour Short Short
5 62.7 Putting on the Breaks Short
6 65.0 Tailwind Long
7 60.3 Topping Formation Short
