Maybe you would consider putting them on for the SP500 and QQQQ on a regular basis. Maybe once or twice a month. Thanks Like your Guppy charts.

I was down about 5-6% last year. I do not wait for a 7% loss to get out and often hedge with a covered call position.

I kept track of those you stated "I own some of these". And given your usual 7% stop loss, you must have been stopped out of several of those small positions because they retreated below the 7% level, TSYS is one example even though it climbed up again. However, you never say that you lost money on those "small positions"! Let it be known that it's OK to admit occasional loss because not even the best investor wins consistently all the time. You'd be more credible if sometimes you tell people that you lose, too!
