Feb 02 short term trades

An example of my short term trading (selling RWM then buying IWM):


By trading this way you can remain invested and remain market neutral.  Your gains will be small (1-2% per trade) but with 4-5 profitable trades a month you should net 6-10% a month.  Over a year you end up with nice gains...  Notice I use stops to avoid big losses, and this cuts into gains, but avoids big losses.

With indexes stop losses are effective because unlike stocks rarely do you get large gaps down.
