PLEASE NOTE: This system is a sister system to my Alphergence - SP500 which is currently available here. This systems only BUYS the Ultra S&P500 ETFs. GENERAL I have been developing trading systems for a long time for personal use as well as for the intellectual learning. The suite of Alphergence models is a result of this endeavor. All my systems involve a Prediction methodology, based on some proprietary multi-factor non-linear models. It is my belief that the markets, though random in the long run, have some predictive power on a shorter time frame. This model in particular is based on the relative levels of open to close of the upcoming trading day. There is a threshold, beyond which (or below which), signals are issued. The trade is opened at the NY close (1600 EST, or around) and closes at the New York Close (around 1600 EST) the day the exit signal is generated. The model is designed to extract the Alpha from the market with this relative valuation signal. WHAT IT TRADES This version trades only 2 ETFs that are based on the S&P 500 Index. These are SDS and SSO. The system only issues a BUY signal on them, thus making it possible to be traded in IRA accounts and non-margin accounts where selling short is not allowed. SDS - PROSHARES ULTRASHORT S&P500 UltraShort S&P500 ProShares is an exchange-traded fund incorporated in the USA. The Fund seeks daily investment results that correspond to twice (200%) the inverse (opposite) of the daily performance of the S&P 500 Index. SSO - PROSHARES ULTRA S&P500 Ultra S&P500 ProShares is an exchange-traded fund incorporated in the USA. The Fund seeks daily investment results that correspond to twice (200%) the daily performance of the S&P 500 Index. HOW TO TRADE ALPHERGENCE - SP500 ETFs You can autotrade this system via the C2 AutoTrader tool. The system issues a BUY signal for EITHER of the two ETFs at the NY market Close (1600 EST) and closes the position around the NY Close (1600 EST) on the day the exit signal is generated. When the system issues a LONG signal, SSO ETF is bought and when the system issues a SHORT signal, SDS ETF are bought. At times, the system is flat. HOW MUCH MONEY CAN I START WITH The system built here is using a starting capital base of $50,000. The trade size is approximately $50,000 per day, rounded down. It will not scale up as the equity goes up. You can replicate the performance of this to adapt to your account size using your own scaling. The system NEVER USES MARGIN. WHEN ARE THE SIGNALS ISSUED Before the market closes in NY (1600 EST). Normally, the signals are sent to you prior to the market open on the day that the signal needs to be executed.
