With each stock’s recap, we will include a (with market support) or (without market support) tag, designating whether the trade triggered with or without market directional support at the time. Anything in the first five minutes will be considered WITHOUT market support because market direction cannot be determined that early. ETF calls do not require market support, and are thus either winners or losers.
From the report, NPSP triggered long (with market support) and didn’t work:
From the intraday calls, Rich’s VXX triggered short (ETF, so no market support needed) and worked:
His AAPL triggered long (with market support) and didn’t work:
His FAS triggered long (ETF, so no market support needed) and worked great:
His FAST triggered short (without market support) and didn’t work:
AMZN triggered short (with market support) and worked enough for a partial:
Rich’s WPRT triggered long (with market support) and didn’t work:
COST triggered long (with market support) and didn’t work:
In total, that’s 7 trades triggering with market support, 3y of them worked, 4 did not. Volume drops to about as low as it can get and we win under 50%, which should be a lesson, although the winners were still good.
