Closed Out a Bad Week on a Positive Note

I had a rough trading week, losing more than 2.3%. I made some bad trades and lost my train of thought mid-week, and that caused me to spiral a bit. But I ended on a bright note, effervescently +76bps in a market that crushed the spirits of momentum traders — closing at the lows down 45 NASDAQS.

The other 50% of my money, invested in my quant, was higher by 1.4% for the week. Its purpose is to remove emotion from my investments, balanced once per mo in a stratagem that I have concocted, using the data analytics in Exodus. Month to date, the quant is +7.7% and my trading is up 6.2%, providing me with an extreme ease and comfort, moving gracefully throughout the market without a worry in the world.

As for what I think will happen on Monday, I have a doubled sized position in TZA and 55% cash, so of course I am waiting for a hammer to drop. But I wouldn’t count on it to happen, especially since Trump is almost craven in his desires to boost equity prices. Do not bet against this man when it comes to the market.

I bid you farewell. Have an enjoyable weekend.

    I thought you had much more of your net worth in your quant,
    compared to the trading account.

    Ha. Along with the usual ‘Putin is attacking our democracy’ blather, State Media will likely use these Joe/Hunter exchanges to turn the Biden influence peddling/treason emails into a sympathy play and a positive for Biden: https://nypost.com/2020/10/16/texts-show-raw-intimate-exchange-between-joe-and-hunter-biden/

    I’ll likely close my TAN short Monday AM.
