Good morning.

As of today, Monday, August 22, 2016, the return from my trading performance since January 1 stands at +41.0 [UPDATE: 46.9] accumulated points vs the benchmark SPY’s performance of +13.0 points over the same period. On Friday my performance rose +0.83 from Thursday on 13 trades in Risk-Off mode (shown above), where trades are not extended and exits are bounded by predetermined time in trade limits absent other reasons to exit (e.g., price target or stop loss reached, etc.). On Friday the SPY fell -0.32. My Risk-On mode, which extends the holding period for trades until the day’s close, rose +0.78. 

Today’s a new day and I am prepared for the market open with 8 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 8 strategies selected today 5 are Long, bullish in outlook. 3 are Short, bearish in outlook. Ready for anything. The long strategy, ‘The Turn’, in the list below has the highest Win %s based on optimized, backtested scenarios. 

Here are the algos:

No.	Win %	Strategy	L/S
1	54.7	Alpha Predator	Long
2	62.7	Bullish Trend Change	Long
3	55.6	Horseshoe Down	Short
4	60.6	Looking for Bounce	Long
5	62.5	Power Hour Short	Short
6	59.6	Quarterback	Long
7	64.9	The Turn	Long
8	62.2	Topping Formation	Short
