Ouch that is a large day to be on the wrong side. Actually my system was right but it had a programing error that revealed itself this morning. Not sure if that makes me feel any better.

Returns for week ending 5-21-10.
Not making any profits at this rate. Lets hope the market corrects a little more, then we might have room to run up again. I suspect the markets will be more news driven than in the run up from March-09. So things need to stabilize on the European scene and not domino around the world. Good luck to all traders.

Returns for week ending 5-14-10
Higher volatility can be good for market timers if their calls are correct. I would expect continued high volatility this coming week. I would hope the system can be in the black for two consecutive weeks.

Returns for week ending 5-07-10
Not a good week with all the volatility.....this week showed that a human input into a mechanical system, i.e., adjusting the allocation may help moderate swings in returns. Tho generally on up weeks it lessens returns somewhat. Likewise the new system has moderated drawdowns. Now if we could have a series of up weeks!

Market getting exciting now! Hoping this will be a correction of lesser degree for the economy's sake. I have been long the dollar for the last two days as a hedge. Not sure if I would follow my system and be very long tomorrow. But it could rebound, who knows?

Returns for week ending 4-30-10
Not getting ahead at this rate, tho today helps. More volatility coming back to the market....now is when the calls need to be correct. If volatility increases I may report Domestic returns as if traded with 2x leverage and/or reduce exposure. It was a bad week for Domestic Market system, but the new system helped ease the pain.
