Dump it Here

Cheers, I prefer a desktop and the website looks brilliant so far. Many thanks. I will play with it tomorrow, but it will be a great resource. How do you find them, do you trade with them?
 
Just be aware with very fresh data (within 20mins of live) you're essentially narrowing your focus to competing against the most well resourced and experienced traders out there. Its unlikely to be a panacea to any easy trading edge, and might actually be much riskier than trading longer timeframes strategies that are not sufficiently scaleable to interest aggressive professional traders.
 
Hi Skate, I just purchased shares in another junior Gold mining company for the speculative stock portfolio. Hopefully with better timing with respect to ducati blue bar indicator...

Yes that's entirely possible and can end up losing the lot. That's a risk I have considered when I put that trade on.

I have read your comments and replied back, thanks for posting as I like to look at positions from every angle.

As I said I am comfortable with leaving the current position on as I won't be in a financial mess if things go wrong as I haven't gone all in or bet the house/farm on it. It'll be a write off in my trading account and although I'll be upset, will have to move on...

I'll actually be really upset if it goes belly up, because it's one of the more riskier plays (high risk / high reward possibly) I've put on the spec portfolio after a lot of deliberation on my part and I hope it works out well. So far thankfully no trades have gone bankrupt in the spec portfolio (touch wood) as I put time and effort to research up investments/trades prior to purchase in the spec portfolio. I can disclose that I have had several bankruptcies of stocks that I have purchased personally over the years and they were bitter experiences in each case.

That’s sad, but respect your position.

if I may, set up the rules in you email client to send the emails to an ASF folder. Problem solved, maybe.

on a serious note, hope you get some resolution soon so we can all benefit from your posts again.

If you don’t start posting again soon I may just take over the dump it here thread—and that will not be good for anyone ?

So the end of the financial year is almost upon us. It's around this time I start looking at the past trades for the FY to see how my systems have been operating and generally how performance is tracking. Thought I'd share some of the high level performance of my three main systems. These are all live results. The following charts report the unit price of my portfolios (this is not the absolute $ value of the portfolios) and shows the overall increase (or decrease) of the portfolios' value, which is derived from the value of open and closed positions, but is not impacted by the movement of cash in and out of these systems so does not factor in dividends etc. This is for FY21 so is from 1 July 2020 to close of Friday.

First up is my weekly system (no this is not NR's WTT). Over all I'm very happy with this portfolio's performance. It has gained approximately 40% in value. H1 of the FY was where most of my gains were made with that period putting on around 36%. H2 saw my system enter a more volatile period with some good gain in Jan only to give most of that up and some through March. Over all H2 to date has only delivered around 4% gain.

Next, looking at my EOD system so far it has delivered a gain of around 17%. Not as good as my weekly, but I'm still happy with that. It had a terrible start to the FY with H1 going into further drawdown having switched back on post Covid crash. However, since coming out of that drawdown in around Oct of '20 it has remained in a pretty consistent up trend. Unlike my weekly which has been actively generating buys and sells my EOD has been reasonably stable with only a few trades. Most of it's open positions are in the green and in contrast to this my weekly is struggling to have 50% of it's open positions in the green.

Finally, my EOD swing system. The performance of this system is the most disappointing to me. It has only delivered a gain of a little over 3%--at least it's more than I'd get from a bank interest rate. To be honest I was expecting this system to deliver around 10-15%. This is the system I intend to spend more time reviewing trades to make sure things are ok with the system. In the past this system has delivered some good results so this FY is a bit of a surprise to me. Hey, at least its 3% gain isn't a loss.

I will try to do a eofy status by 30/06.
Not before, as much can happenwhen a 60k system jump by 5.5k one week and lose 5.3k the next, i need to stick to the date.
Nice to see dome wins, H2 has been a disaster overall for all running system, all in DD.doubt it will change in the next fortnight

I think we need to get to the bottom of the problem here @Skate

1) Are you talking about email SPAM (from 3rd parties) you receive on your "designated" email address which is synced to ASF?

If that is the case,

How much SPAM are you receiving?

I ask this because, I do not receive any inordinate amount of ASF related emails from 3rd parties on my designated email address:oops:

ie. Do you suspect you are being targeted differently to others on ASF?

If it is just the "on site advertising" which is a problem for you, I assume that cannot be fixed (but I personally have no problem with that anyway)

If you are receiving "over and above" a reasonable amount of 3rd party SPAM emails in the "name" of ASF,

That seems unusual to me, and I have no doubt, to @Joe Blow would as well??

Dare I suggest that you may have been targeted by 3rd party SPAM operators (outside ASF control)

Simply because of your high volume input on the site??


With the above issues in mind, could I suggest that you liaise with @Joe Blow to simply change/add a new email address regarding your ASF contact, on a semi regular basis, so that if you are being targeted due to your high Volume input on the site, the "attackers" will be foiled as a matter of course!

Alias emails are not difficult to register .... That may be a simple solution??:wheniwasaboy:

Hope you and Joe can work it out:happy:

Cheers M8.
 
I've decided to stop trading HappyCat as I'm going to try a different strategy that I've made. Thought I'd post some charts since I worked out how to import live trades into RealTest for examination.

I felt it wasn't doing as well as I thought, but looking at the overall stats and picture it's done well. Though the negative expectancy was surprising and I don't think I actually made quiet $2400, thought it was closer to $1800, either way this would be around 15% return so not bad.

That’s ok performance...don’t get caught in the cycle of switching out of a system and into another in search of something better. Good luck with the new system ?

It was always my intention to stop HappyCat when I had worked out my own. Was going to do futures but not enough capital right now to qualify on IB. I had been working on a daily trade solution for a while so I think I'm not falling into that trap.

Glad you pointed it out though. It's a good point as many people tinker and swap in and out of strats. I'm still trading my MAP strategy despite some doubts every now and then ;).

You’ll do well ?

Thanks for putting this up Warr87. Just out of interest, this is a system I worked up around Happy Cat principles based on observations of Skate's trading style and the Ducati principles of buying BOs on (price and volume) volatility starting from $20k, trading only All Ords, over same period. This system took over trading funds I had previously allocated to HC around March this year and has yet to make any new equity highs. Interesting how similar the two equity curves are - which seems promising against the original goal of implementing a weekly volatility based BO system capable of "jumping in early" on new BOs/Trends.

(note: unfortunately I clipped the X axis scale - period below is 1/10/20 to 15/6/21)
