Neural Market Trends

December 24, 2009 ☼ $DTV$JNJ$V$WCRXGold

I’m using a very simple trend strategy now.  I just buy all-time highs, use strict positioning sizes, and enter a volatility stop each and everytime.  I let the market tell me which stocks to buy (and when to get out) instead of a complicated neural net system.

My $GOLD trade was the beginning of my simplification of my trend strategy, it was a winner and I realized that perhaps I’ve been doing everything wrong.  It wasn’t until November that I started entering positions, losing a bit of money here and there, and then finally honing my new strategy.
