Before we get to June’s numbers, here is a short reminder of the results from May. The full report from May can be found here. You can also go back indefinitely by clicking here and scrolling down.
Tradesight Tick Results for May 2015
Number of trades: 7
Number of losers: 2
Winning percentage: 71.4%
Net ticks: +20.5 ticks
Reminder: Here are the rules.
1) Totals for the month are based on trades that occurred on trading days in the calendar month.
2) Trades are based on the calls in the Messenger exactly as we call them and manage them and do not count everything you could have done from taking our courses and using our tools.
3) All trades are broken into two pieces, with the assumption that one half is sold at the first target and one half is sold at the final exit. These are then averaged. So if we made 6 ticks on one half and 12 on the second, that’s a 9-tick winner.
4) Pure losers (trades that just stop out) are considered 7 tick losers. We don’t risk more than that in the Messenger calls.
It is important to note that these results do not include the Tradesight Value Area, Opening Range, or Institutional Range plays, all of which have been working quite well on their own.
You can go through the reports and compare the breakdown that I give as each trade is reviewed.
Tradesight Tick Results for June 2015
Number of trades: 11
Number of losers: 3
Winning percentage: 72.4%
Net ticks: +42 ticks
Despite summer doldrums and general market slowdown, we had a great month in the few trade calls that triggered. Even better and unaccounted for, we saw 18 out of 22 days be profitable using the ES and NQ opening range plays, many of them for lots of ticks. It’s just a great result overall in a narrow environment on light volume.
