The Full Portfolio (8 Straight Winning Years)

May 31, 2024

This week we’re talking about a new 24-hour-type portfolio I want to trade live.

As mentioned, I want the mindlessness and timelessness of an index fund with more profit.

So far, we’ve seen Bollinger Band™ breakouts on the NQ and ES. Today we’re going to add two more.

By the way, how many strategies is enough? Is four okay? How about fourteen? Or forty?

For me, the goal is to be as simple as possible–but no simpler. I’m not using ten if four will do.

But I’m also not using just one.

The next addition to this possible portfolio is a Gold strategy. Gold tends to mix very well with indexes like NQ and ES, so that’s the next one in.

Recently, I’ve done a video on the details of this system, and you can watch that video here.

It’s another Band breakout system and here are a few recent trades:

Last, I have a high win percentage ES chart that I think we’ve talked about before. It wins all the time but it doesn’t make enough money to be traded by itself.

However, it might make a positive contribution to my overall portfolio since it wins at a high rate and gets in on pullbacks and not breakouts.

Here are the details:

240M S&P 500 E-Mini High Percentage (ES)

• Long Only Entry: When price closes into Oversold on the CCI (Length 24, Oversold -100).
• Target: 0.8x the ATR (length 14).
• Target #2: Exit when price closes into Overbought (Length 20, Overbought 200).
• Stop: 9.5x the ATR (length 14).
• Filter: Only trade when above the 40-bar simple moving average.

It doesn’t trade often and here is the most recent trade:

This one actually does trade around the clock but there still aren’t that many entries.

So what happens when we put all four strategies together via Portfolio Architect?

Here’s the Report trading 1 contract for the past two decades:

And here’s the Curve on a sample $25k account:

Overall, it hypothetically has only had one small losing year since 2002. And the losing year was just a $1,300 loss in 2015.

Not bad.

Much better than an index fund.

And that’s the goal.
