It is rewarding to put up back to back months of profitability. This has been a challenging month to say the least. If you were to just look at the return of the SPX for the month, it would belie the fact that many were calling for a top, waiting for a resolution to the Greek tragedy and euro land drama, etc. However, it was a great month for our strategies! And, you’ll note that we were primarily long and along for the ride.

Going back to the market environment, it is also important to note when to “get outta Dodge.” The charts of the ELN and PCP trades demonstrate this below. In this market environment, there is a lot of headline risk. So, it paid to have a plan based around multiple, statistically-valid approaches and stick to our guns. We had one challenging trade, but the overall philosophy of a high win rate and winners beating losers caught us back up to the black quickly.

We look forward to February. To try a free month of The “A Game” Trading Letter click here and enroll.
