It’s been a wild week for me – not just in the markets but also in real life as the Las Fallas celebrations here in Valencia ended just two days ago and I’m still catching up on sleep. It also doesn’t help that you yanks already switched to daylight saving time and thus everything is getting pulled forward an hour for me. Sounds like a minor inconvenience but when you have a routine going changing it during a noisy week doesn’t help matters. Oh yeah – and on top of all we have houseguests who want to be entertained. So quite frankly I’m very much looking forward to kicking my feet up and doing abso-diddly-nothing this weekend.

CrazyIvan has been kicking butt and taking numbers this month and I thought I’d share the updated stats. We started the month with around 28R in the plus for 2014 and it managed to work its way up all the way to 45R thus far.

Here are the updated 2014 stats – it’s looking pretty good and we are actually way ahead of expectations. This is based on trading six symbols (four FX and two futures symbols) on the 480 which have produced a total of 45R. Assuming compounding and the recommended 1% position sizes this means that our subs should have added near 50% to their trading accounts – and we are only 1/4 into the year. CrazyIvan very much likes volatility and given the tape of the past few weeks I have an inkling we are going to see quite a bit more of that.

If you are interested in giving CrazyIvan a shot then I suggest you work yourself through the intro/tutorial as well as the order flow page. The live results are available here – meaning the spreadsheet (top of that page) is being updated each single completed trade – I update the charts about once a week. If you still have questions after all that then feel free to shoot me an email to admin@.

Quick update on my TF campaign – as you may recall I did mention that the bulls weren’t out of the woods yet this morning and apparently my suspicions were right on the money. That’s quite a reversal and it increases the odds for yet another leg to the downside. Obviously we have equity/ETF/ETN options plus cash settled currency options expiring today, which may account for some monkey business.

The Zero shows us a total flatline in the beginning of the session and that alone gave me the willies knowing that the tape can change direction at the drop of a pin when that happens. We’re seeing a bit more of a signal now (nice Mole reversal signal as well) but wouldn’t want to guess where we wind up today.

So my ‘cunning plan’ (any Black Adder fans here?) will be to wait for the close and then adjust my initial stop based on the close. IF we produce some sort of shooting star (I know I said hammer on the chart and apparently it fell on my foot) then I will propagate my stop up to today’s low. That would also be my short trigger starting Sunday night – unless of course we gap in which case I wouldn’t want to chase it.

Before I go I have the sad duty to wish our resident Gold Gerb all the best and at least a temporary goodbye as he has decided to hibernate for a while. Seems like he has finally managed to bankrupt his employer as 40% of his colleagues have been laid off and the silly gerb now winds up making up the slack. Well, at least you still got a job buddy – use the remaining time to polish up your resume! After over four years of daily participation it will be tough to see him gone and we can only hope he’ll fall on his grubby little feet. Farewell Gold Gerb! (Mole wipes a crocodile tear).

Well, that’s as good as any reason for me to crack open a cold one and call it a day. I’ll be back come Monday morning bright eyed and bushy tailed. Wishing you all you Slopers a relaxing early spring weekend.
