First Quarter 2016

First Quarter 2016

1st quarter 2016 Swing Returns

This page includes every closed out Swing Trade from the first quarter of 2016.

Many are aware the market was under extreme pressure from January 1st until February 11th 2016 when the SP 500 bottomed at 1810.  The market managed to rally to as high as 2075 near the end of the first quarter.

We show every single trade whether winner or loser, but also break it down in bar graph form to show the first 40 days of the quarter when the market was downtrending and how we did, and the final 50 days when the market was uptrending.

Overall we had 20 winners and 9 losers.  We also carried about 60-70% average portfolio cash balances for much of the quarter which balanced out risks quite well.  You can see our winners in terms of percentages far outgained our few losers on a relative basis.

You can click this chart to enlarge.  We also list every trade below it in detail. Each trade is usually either a full position or 1/2 position when closed out. Sometimes we sell 1/2 a position and sell the other 1/2 later, sometimes the entire position is only a 5% allocation, whereas a full position is a 10% allocation.
