Good catch. I missed that and was just going off of what popped up today. In that case you would have been in NVGN at 7.54 and it is at 6.36 now (a 15% loss - ouch).

Well, I liked your entry point today better so I took a flyer @ $6.25. An early morning pop from $6.36 would be appreciated!

I need to look at the walk-forward analysis for this to see what the settings are for March (won't really know until the weekend).

Hi Kevin,
Just a quick question.
Your recent calls to take profits on CBMX and BDBD and some others in the past have been bang on as they then declined significantly. I am wondering and curious to know if you have some inside knowledge or what? How do you know when to pull the sell trigger. Is there a secret formula fo rit as I wait for Williams exit.
Would appreciate your thought process on that.

No - just the fear of blowing a good profit of 5% or more. I would have built in a profit stop of 5% into the backtest but because it first requires a 6% pullback (limit order) the backtest always seemed to make money - reason was that you cant tell with EOD data which came first. Anyway, no secret info.

adx(5) needs to be above 45. I do not see HK on my tracking filter for this one.

Guess I have your filter wrong. I had adx 5 above 40 and not 45 as you say.
