Two Realized Losses, and Two New Signals.........
We were stopped out of the Japanese Yen and Cocoa yesterday. Those are documented in the BLOG Table below. We have nothing in the active algorithmic portfolio; however, we have two new signals for tomorrow. New Signals: Go LONG Silver: Market On Open. Symbols: SIK11 and SLV. Record: 107 wins out of 137 trades for 78%. Initial Stop: about $1300 for futures and 1% for ETF. Note: these are very shallow stops, and therefore very risky. Silver has been lately one of the most volatile investments of those we track. Go LONG the British Pound: Market On Open. Symbols: BPM11 and FXB. Record: 40 wins out of 44 trades for 91%. Initial Stop: about $2900 for futures and 2.9% for ETF. Careful here, too! This is a deep stop by BLOG standards. Note: each element of the portfolio is 20% of the total, so this individual stop represents about .6% of the portfolio. If you wish to be notified of new posts, let me know at bassanalytics@live.com.

Mixed Results Today for the BLOG
Intra-day we sent out BLOG Posts for Crude Oil, and for Gold. Those of you that requested emails when updates were made were also sent emails intra-day. Gold and the British Pound were exited with profits. Crude Oil still has a nice unrealized gain. There is a small unrealized gain in Cocoa. This is a typical story on a typical day. Now for the atypical information.
We did a post that said do not enter the ETF on Cotton. This is because technically Cotton hit a trailing stop last night and exited with a gain of $690 (entered at 202.29 and exited at 203.67). Then (since no BLOG reader knew, and neither did I at the time), Cotton hit its bottom stop of -$2,300 at 197.69. However, it then made new highs and then closed at 208.82. At this point, if you were still in the position, the profit would have been over $3,000. At this moment, Cotton is trading at 205.62, and therefore the position would be up $1,500. Since we started the BLOG, we haven't had a problem with a trade to this extent. Cotton was extremely volatile last night, both to the upside and the downside, and our formulas are truly calculated dynamically. I was unable to update the BLOG until I had had a chance to examine the actual intra-day behaviour. We are sorry for any inconvenience that this has caused. Most nights, things are fairly simple, even with the dynamic formulas. Last night, this was not the case, and I was not in the office. Depending upon what you did, you might have done much better than the BLOG.
A simpler but similar situation took place with silver. Silver was stopped out last night, but has since rallied. Also, the same system that gave rise to the first signal was triggered again, so we show ourselves still long in the BLOG, with stops that are higher than yesterday's close (since the new position has rallied overnight), and is now profitable. Anyway the stops shown are valid, even though they look suspicious.
New Signal: Go LONG the Japanese Yen, Market On Open. Symbols: JYM11 and FXY. Record: 33 wins out of 39 trades for 85%. Initial Stop: about 121.66 for futures and about 1.6% for ETF. "Let the buyer beware." This currency has been more volatile than any other I know of.

Three New Signals for Thursday.........
The presentation tonight at California State University was awesome, mostly because of the multitude of questions from the inquisitive students. The future of our country is full of promise, so long as our educational system leads the way. Thanks again to Dr. Prakash Dheeriya for his gracious hospitality.
Our stops on British Pound, Crude Oil and Gold have locked in some unrealized profits. See the Table below for details. In addition, we have three new algorithmically-generated signals.
New Signals:
Go LONG Silver, market on open: Symbols: SIK11 and SLV. Record: 59 wins out of 72 trades for 82%. Initial Stop: about $2000 for futures and 1.1% for ETF.
Go LONG Cotton, market on open: Symbols: CTK11 and BAL. Record: 81 wins out of 95 trades for 85%. Initial Stop: about $2300 for futures and 2.3% for ETF.
Go LONG Cocoa, market on open: Symbols: CCK11 and NIB.Record: 323 wins out of 398 trades for 81%. Initial Stop: about $1900 for futures and 5.8% for ETF. This percentage goes beyond the BLOG's risk tolerance; therefore, we will not follow this ETF trade in the BLOG. We will instead follow only the future. This works out well, since we already have three ETF positions, so Cotton and Silver will bring us to our full 5 ETF positions.
The silver signal is scary because silver has had such a steep run-up; the cotton signal looks good, but the cocoa is scary because it has been in a fierce downtrend. In any event, good luck!

Abbreviated Post for Now
Our stops on British Pound, Crude Oil and Gold have locked in some profit. In the interest of time, I'll list the stops here: BPM11 161.96, CLK11 104.54, and our favorite GCJ11 at 1433.80. We have three new signals for tomorrow: buy Silver, buy Cotton, and buy Cocoa. These all have futures and ETFs available. All three of the historical win-ratios are at least 80%, so they are good systems. However, algorithms can be wrong. The silver signal is scarry because silver has had such a steep run-up; the cotton signal looks good, but the cocoa is scarry because it has been in a fierce downtrend. In any event, good luck!
Because of the presentation at California State University tonight, the full POST will be delayed until late.

Realized Losses for Positions Today
While the BLOG has unrealized gains for the day, there were some realized losses on the day. Note that a 2.1% loss on a single ETF position is equivalent to a .4% loss on the ETF portfolio, since each position represents 20% of the total portfolio. The results are documented in the Table Below.
In addition, there were no new signals generated by the algorithms on the day.
Tomorrow, I look forward to speaking to a class of Finance Students at California State University Dominguez Hills.

Mixed Day for the BLOG..........
Some of our positions rose, and some fell. However, we remain optimistic given our recent plethora of signals. Our stock market signal soared (one we didn't have a slot for). Also, platinum and silver surged (we didn't have slots for these, either). Nonetheless, we observe that there was quite a bit of energy in the markets today.
Our ETF portfolio is full at five positions. However, there were more new algorithmic signals generated for tomorrow. Although we'll have to pass these signals up, we will list them herein for your information. Go long the following:
1) Cotton
2) Aussie Dollar
3) Canadian Dollar
4) Russell 2000 Stock Market Index
Good luck!

RECORD NUMBER OF SIGNALS FOR THE BLOG
......there are a record number of new signals for tomorrow: 10 new signals for Monday for 9 different investments. The BLOG began in January of 2010, and this is by far the largest number of algorithmically-generated new trades suggested for one day. Note that we already have one existing position, long the British Pound, so we will have to be somewhat selective as to which signals we choose to follow.
First, we'll list all of the algorithmically-generated signals that the computer generated today, then, we'll give the statistics on those signals that we will follow in the BLOG. Our methodology limits the number of signals that we can follow. We will follow those with the best statistical records.
Go long: Corn, Gold, Coffee, Crude Oil, Silver, Platinum, Copper, S&P 500, and Cotton.
Go LONG CORN: Symbols: CK11 and CORN. Record: 12 wins out of 16 trades for 75%. Initial Stop: about $500 for futures and 1.4% for the ETF.
Go LONG GOLD: Symbols: GCJ11 and GLD. Record: 32 wins out of 37 trades for 86%. Initial Stop: about $2500 for futures and 1.1% for ETF. Note: there were actually 2 signals registered for GOLD.
Go LONG COFFEE: Symbols: KCK11 and JO. Record: 39 wins out of 51 trades for 77%. Initial Stop: about $2150 for futures and 2.1% for ETF.
Go LONG CRUDE OIL: Symbols: CLK11 and OIL. Record: 39 wins out of 54 trades for 72%. Initial Stop: about $1500 for futures and 1.5% for ETF.
The S&P signal is intriguing, but at 4 wins out of 4 trades (100%), it is not statistically credible. Note that our short Corn and short Gold trades made money. We are not out of these trades and reversing our positions by going long!
Good luck to all!

British Pound Gains; Corn and Gold Lose...........
The day was the complete opposite of yesterday: nearly every entity we track gained ground. As a result, we made money on our long British Pound, and lost money on Short Gold and Short Corn.
For tomorrow, we have two compelling signals, that are somewhat related. Buy soybeans and buy soymeal. The two signals reinforce one another, since the data for the two commodities are separate; yet both signals were triggered. The track records are shown below. For now, we know of no pure ETF plays on these two foods. Therefore, we will only track the futures positions here in the BLOG.
New Signals:
Go LONG Soybeans: Symbols: SK11 and no ETF. Record: 83 wins out of 104 trades for 80%. Initial Stop: about $1800 for futures.
Go LONG Soymeal: Symbols: SMK11 and no ETF. Record: 53 wins out of 72 trades for 74%. Initial Stop: about $1200 for futures.
Good luck and we'll see you tomorrow.

For tomorrow, we have two compelling signals, that are somewhat related. Buy soybeans and buy soymeal. The two signals reinforce one another, since the data for the two commodities are separate; yet both signals were triggered. The track records are shown below. For now, we know of no pure ETF plays on these two foods. Therefore, we will only track the futures positions here in the BLOG.
New Signals:
Go LONG Soybeans: Symbols: SK11 and no ETF. Record: 83 wins out of 104 trades for 80%. Initial Stop: about $1800 for futures.
Go LONG Soymeal: Symbols: SMK11 and no ETF. Record: 53 wins out of 72 trades for 74%. Initial Stop: about $1200 for futures.
Good luck and we'll see you tomorrow.

No New Signals for Thursday
Corn fell again and we profited. Gold futures were stopped out for a gain; Gold ETF still short. Last night's BLOG featured an error; the first signal was to buy the Natural Gas future and we exited on the open this evening. No ETF for Natural Gas was entered. The long British Pound lost ground. No new signals for tomorrow.

Markets Collapse in Wake of Japanese Earthquake.......
Stock markets, foreign currencies, metals, energies, foods, etc. collapsed today in the wake of the 6th biggest earthquake in recorded history. Markets anticipated lower earnings for companies, and less demand for hard commodities. The BLOG gained ground as it was short Corn, and short Gold. I was reticent to follow the Gold signal.
New Signals:
Go LONG Natural Gas: Symbols: NGJ11 and we won't follow the ETF because the initial stop is too deep for the BLOG's risk tolerance. Record: 138 wins out of 174 trades for 79%. Initial Stop: 3.733 for futures. Some of these signals are very short-lived, so be careful. We'll try and report during the later part of the evening on the status of this signal.
Go LONG British Pound: Symbols: BPM11 and FXB. Record: 41 wins out of 45 trades for 91%. Initial Stop: 156.12 for futures and about 2.9% for the ETF.

BLOG Portfolio Was Little Changed Today; Up Monday Night.........
While little-changed Sunday Night and Monday, Monday Night is a different story. Most investments tracked by the BLOG are down strongly; meaning our short-portfolio is increasing in value. Notice that the Coffee stops have been hit, so exit market on open ETFs and Futures. We expect a downward opening for Coffee, based upon the current overnight activity, so we expect to exit short Coffee with a profit. We'll still be short Gold and Corn.
No new algorithmically-generated signals for tomorrow.

Two New Signals: One VERY BOLD.........
For Monday, a signal to Sell Short Coffee (I like Coffee Bold). Also, a signal to Sell Short Gold. Both commodities are in intermediate-term bull markets, and the signals are depicting a short-term "over-bought" condition. Giving credence to the signals is the same fundamental algorithm that triggered the short signals in the grains, which were very profitable.
Today, we were stopped out of the Long S&P position, even though the stock markets surged upward after that. Also, a quick one-day gain for short soybeans. Short corn made money as well.
New Signals:
Go SHORT Coffee. Symbols: KCK11 and JO. Record: 8 wins out of 8 trades for 100%. While this is not as many signals as we typically like to have, the data covers the period from 1978 to 2011. Initial Stop: about $1600 on the future and 1.6% on the ETF.
Go SHORT GOLD. Symbols: GCJ11 and GLD (or ETN). We will track GLD here in the BLOG, since it is much more liquid. Record: 46 wins out of 63 trades for 73%. Initial Stop: about $1900 on the future and 1.4% on the ETF.

Sugar Hits the BLOG Hard......
The BLOG was stopped out of the futures and ETF positions today on Sugar. The losses are shown in the Table below. Corn dropped and we were short so the BLOG made money; but the S&P lost ground and so did the BLOG on its long position.
One new signal: Go Short Soybeans: Symbols: SK11 and no ETF. Record: 29 wins out of 40 trades for 73%. Initial Stop: about $1600.

Two New Algorithmic Signals for Tomorrow: Buy Sugar and Sell Corn.......
Our portfolio fell slightly today. For tomorrow, here are the statistics backing up the computer's suggested directions:
Go LONG Sugar, Market on Open: Symbols: SBK11 and SGG. Record: 56 wins out of 92 trades for 61%. Initial Stop: about 4% on the ETF, and about $1400 on the future. The 4% is beyond our normal risk limits; however, this signal has been very accurate over the past year. The so-called "softs" sector has been extremely lucrative on the long side.
Go Short Corn, Market on Open: Symbols: CK11 and CORN. Record: 28 wins out of 32 trades for 88%. Initial Stop: about 5% on the ETF and $1800 on the future. We'll only be tracking the future for this trade, since 5% exceeds our risk tolerance level.

Neutral Day As Gold Falls For Gain; Aussie Falls for Loss.......
Our position in the Aussie Dollar was stopped out for a loss, while Gold fell giving the BLOG a gain for its short position. The S&P 500 rose, giving us a gain in our "long" position.
For tomorrow, there are no new signals. The math is sensing a "turning point" for the markets. I believe we will see the results in the next couple of trading days.

Three New Signals for Monday: Buy Soybeans, Sell Gold, and buy the S&P.
Let's face it: gold and grains are in a bull market. So, buying soybeans is understandable. This has been a powerful signal in the past. But sell gold short? The last signal of this type from the BLOG was not profitable. Still, this particular gold algorithm predicted a large decline a few years ago. I'll follow both signals in the BLOG. However, everyone should select their own risk profile and always consult with their investment advisor. Finally, stock market signals are always the most difficult for me, since I have found that trends and reversals in the stock markets are the most difficult for me to predict.
Go LONG Soybeans, market on open: Symbols: SK11 and no ETF. Record: 30 wins out of 41 trades for 73%. Initial Stop: $950.
Go LONG the S&P, market on open: Symbols: ESH11 and IVV. Record: 37 wins out of 45 trades for 82%. Initial Stop: 1291 on the S&P future--about 2.1% on the ETF.
Go Short Gold, market on open: Symbols: GCJ11 and GLD. Record: 26 wins out of 32 trades for 81%. Initial Stop: about 1.3%.

The Algorithm Calm Before the Storm
We exited Platiunum today with a profit. Our open portfolio gained ground. There were no new algorithmically-generated signals. The portfolio is small. This often happens before an abundance of new signals.
The stock markets surged, with the Russell up over 2%. The Fed is worried about American debt spiraling out-of-control. If the debt gets too big, credit markets will lose faith, rates will need to be higher. The interest burden will increase the current deficit further, causing a further rise to rates, etc., etc., etc. This could happen, according to the Fed, in short order, unless something is done in Washington. However, Washington seems complacent. After all, each generation of politician has been able to pass the mess on to the next generation.
