Market Direction Portfolio Trade Update – Stop-Loss Strategy For Santa Claus Rally

Dec 26, 2013 | Stock Market Outlook

For FullyInformed Members following the market direction portfolio the Santa Claus rally can create excellent year-end returns. While the Dow has rallied every January since the bear market of 2008 to 2009 ended, there will always be that time when the Santa Claus rally will not extend beyond the first few days of January.

This is the stop-loss strategy I developed and use during the Santa Claus rally period to capture most of the rally and protect my gains from any potential dip in January.
