Thanks Glen….a sound plan. Survival above everything else in the markets at the moment. The goal is to be here to play again down the track.
March 16, 2020 at 7:18 am #111124TrentRothallParticipantGood work glen, my mean reversion is sitting about 24% DD since November, similar to with 2019’s gains it feels ‘ok’. Although this month i’ve reduced my positionsize and i’m basically cash now. i’ll probably miss the bounce but i’m ok with that, i’ve been watching out of interest the intra day moves of the asx200 – wild ride.
March 16, 2020 at 7:48 am #111126GlenPeakeParticipantThanks Nick & Trent….
…reassuring words indeed…..
Next 1000 trades…
March 16, 2020 at 11:28 am #111128GlenPeakeParticipantJust pulled my BUY orders…..I’m gonna sit this one out for the time being….. and then reassess.
March 27, 2020 at 12:05 am #111130GlenPeakeParticipantWith all GYM’s being shutdown, I’ve taken the long term view and gone ‘LONG’ on gym equipment.
Currently obtaining/buying gym equipment is on par (if not harder) to buying toilet paper.
Items currently shipped and will hopefully be delivered over the coming days:
Items ordered and waiting on an update for delivery:
Limited on selection of barbell/weight combinations and kettle bell options.
Fingers crossed everything gets delivered soon….. like real soon…. 😆
March 31, 2020 at 10:15 am #111178GlenPeakeParticipantMarch 2020 Stats
ASX WTT -16.63% (Up 2.96% since go live in JAN 2019)
US MR#1 -14.92%
US MR#2 -14.20%Holding just the 1 stock in the WTT portfolio, FMG.au.
I put the 2 MR systems into ‘survival mode’ and hit the pause button on trading them on 16/3.,,,Not sure at this stage when I’ll re-enter.
My Monthly ASX100 system is ready to launch…… once the Index Filter goes green.
The Monthly NDX100 system, I’m happy to launch as is, but still tinkering with a couple of bits and pieces.
Cheers
April 2, 2020 at 3:29 am #111200GlenPeakeParticipantUpdate:
I’m trading my 2x US MR systems again… went live again last night…. just using 25% of the normal full position sizing for the time being.
April 30, 2020 at 11:46 pm #111219GlenPeakeParticipantApril 2020 Stats
ASX WTT +1.55% (Up +4.46% since go live in JAN 2019…. Excluding dividends & interest)US MR#1 +7.52%
US MR#2 +2.02%Still holding just the 1 stock in the WTT portfolio, FMG.au.
The standout trade of the month came from MR#1 system… that being DOCU in @ 78.82 and out @ 90.91 for a 15.25% profit on the trade.
I spent some time this month reviewing the WTT system.
Details here: WTT Review
Also during the month I cancelled my KAYO subscription (no live sport atm… will sign back up when live sport gets up and going again…….) and subscribed to NetFlix for the first time…… I’m currently half way through Season 2 of OZARK!!!
Spoiled for choice on NetFlix…. I’m open to suggestions for any other worthwhile series/shows.
April 30, 2020 at 11:54 pm #111375ScottMcNabParticipantOldie but a goodie…Breaking Bad..early seasons may be on Netfilx..or Stan (prob watch during free trial if commit to it)
May 1, 2020 at 12:45 am #111376Nick RadgeKeymasterOzark is epic. Season 3 will blow your mind.
I don’t think Breaking Bad is on NFLX anymore.
Inside Bill’s Brain is excellent.
I’m currently watching The Last Dance about Michael Jordon.
May 1, 2020 at 12:52 am #111379GlenPeakeParticipantYep…. I’m onto the last Episode of “Inside Bill’s Brain”….. I knew he had to be a smart guy etc, but his ability to read read read and also retain the content is pretty amazing….. also…I found the details around ‘2 school kids’ turning up to big businesses to sort stuff out via coding etc, pretty hilarious!!! Amazing really…
Yeah…I’ve added The Last Dance to ‘My List’ as well….. looks good.
May 5, 2020 at 3:36 am #108651GlenPeakeParticipantI thought now is as good a time as any to review my systems.
Below I’ve re-calibrated US MR System #1. I’ve tweaked just 1 setting, I’ve adjusted the stock MA Period a couple of notches. I’ve been backtesting over the last 3-5 years.
Results below of the 3 year backtest.

After:

US MR System #2 is next on the review to-do list.
I’ve also been flicking through Unholy Grails. I’ll code up a couple of the systems from the book over the next few days/weeks and see what’s what…. I might as well put my Mentor Course ‘coding skills’ to good use, considering I had no chance of coding up the systems when I originally bought the book.
May 8, 2020 at 8:36 am #111397GlenPeakeParticipantThe Index Filter on the ASX WTT turned green and the system spat out 4 new buy orders.
Orders are placed and ready for Monday’s open…. which probably means the recent bounce we’ve been seeing is about to end approx. 5 minutes after my orders execute on Monday.
Next 1000 trades….
May 8, 2020 at 10:09 am #111380AnonymousInactiveunfortunately, too much on Netflix. I binged on things like Narcos and Lillyhammer late at night. Some stuff we have in the UK may not be in Aus, but 20 minutes of (what I find funny) Friday Night Dinners, Still Game and After Life (Reicky Gervais with pathos)
May 8, 2020 at 10:26 am #111406GlenPeakeParticipantThanks for the NetFlix tips Mike…. Half Life I’ve started. Still Game I’ve now added to the list…..
OZARK…. Finished….waiting for Season 4 and beyond…………..
Cheers
