You are receiving this message since the alert which was sent to Bear Trader subscribers and former Bull & Bear Tracker subscribers on Friday June 26th was out of the ordinary.
On Wednesday June 24, 2020, Bear Trader sent its first green alert to buy a long ETF since March 2020. The text message was sent at 3:48 PM for conservative and aggressive traders to establish 50% stakes in SPY and SPXL respectively. The 3:52 PM purchase prices for SPY was $304.05 and for the SPXL was $40.16.
Since the signal was still green on Friday morning and the stock market declined significantly after the open the Bear Trader sent an alert at 11:07 AM to increase stakes from 50% to 100%. The alert contained a limit price of $39.35 for the SPXL and $302.00 for the SPY. Based on subsequent prices reached by shares after the text messages were sent the orders to purchase the shares were filled for all traders who entered orders.
Even though the signal was green and closed at green on Friday June 26th the Bear Trader sent an alert at 3:19 PM to sell the shares purchased at the prices paid for them earlier in the day. The alert to reduce the position by 50% at a limit price while the green signal was in effect was sent for two reasons:
- Since subscribers were only 50% invested the dip in the market provided an opportunity for the Bear Trader to lower the cost basis by going to 100%. The plan was to go back to 50% by end of day on Friday June 26, 2020, assuming the share prices recovered.
- Bear Trader’s preference is for its subscribers to not be 100% invested over a weekend. The weekend of Saturday June 27th and Sunday June 28th are the first weekend days that a subscriber has been invested since May 3, 2020.
Based on the number of nights at risk the current alert’s elapsed time period is the longest since the Bear Trader’s signals have been published.
Bear Trader’s mission is to provide subscribers with opportunities to generate a minimum of 100% of cumulative net trading gains through the fourth quarter of 2022. The SCPA (Statistical Crash Probability Analyses), an algorithm affiliated with Bear Trader, has forecasted that the final bottoms for the US and the markets of a dozen other of the world’s leading 14 countries ranked by GDP will occur from September to December of 2022.
Since the Bear Trader is in 100% cash for a majority of the time it’s the ideal investment vehicle for the defensive investor and also for retirement accounts. For more about the Bear Trader and the SCPA go to https://beartrader.com/about-bear-trader/.
