12/22/2009: 10:45 am update: 'XMany', NQ, ES, EMD, TF






  • some of the major indices have finally broken out (to the upside) of the recent ranges: NQ and EMD...
  • though some are still banging their heads at resistance: ES and TF...
  • i believe ES and TF will follow the NQ and the EMD to the upside...
  • this run could last until the first few days of january...

  • my 'XMany' model gave a long entry signal last night for the NDX...this model is based on the seasonal bullish tendency surrounding the christmas and new year holidays...
  • rob hanna over at quantifiable edges, posted a study based on bullish behavior surrounding the xmas holiday....
  • based on my 'XMany' signal, yesterday i went long the NQ at 1826.25...there is a money management stop (currently around 1773.00) and a trailing stop (much lower)...if neither of these stops are hit, the position is due to be exited on the close of tuesday january 5, 2010...
  • here is the equity curve (each trade is made with a theoretical $100,000 worth of capital):

The model is built on data from the NDX, but I trade the model with the NQ e-mini.
