Quick update–
I’m adding a second strategy to TrendLock at no additional cost!
Go long X days before month-end, sell X days into the new month (plus a regime filter). Dead simple, but a long term edge that hasn’t been arbitraged away.
Don’t worry, like Trendlock this doesn’t require you to spend all day starting at your charts, just one signal a month.
This is what all of this is about. Dead simple systems that can hold up over time.
I’ve traded this myself for years.
And yes, It’s perfect for options…defined windows, short holds, exploits one of the most reliable calendar anomalies in equity markets.
Why Two Strategies Beat One
Most traders waste years trying to optimize a single strategy to perfection. They tweak parameters, add filters, chase higher Sharpe ratios.
Result? Over-fitting. Strategies that backtest beautifully and break in live trading.
Better approach: Combine complementary strategies with different time horizons, instruments, and return drivers.
When you blend uncorrelated strategies:
- Smoother equity curves
- Reduced drawdowns
- Better risk-adjusted returns
- Multiple profit centers
The math is simple: Two strategies with 0.8 Sharpe ratios, low correlation, can produce a combined Sharpe above 1.2.
What You’re Getting
Complete performance breakdown on both strategies:
- Full backtest results
- Walk-forward analysis
- Monte Carlo simulations
- Blended portfolio statistics
You’ll see exactly how these systems work together, and why the combined approach crushes either strategy alone.
Same subscription price. Two strategies. All documentation, signals, and implementation guides for both systems.
If you already have Trendlock you don’t need to do anything, it’ll appear in your dashboard as we roll it out well ahead of the end of the month.
If you haven’t signed up yet you should get on board, we’re already positioned!.
And when the next major pullback (or crash) in the market happens, you don’t have to take the full drawdown like you would if you just put your head in the sand and held S&P 500.
You don’t need to work a full second job trying to beat the market, less is more… if it’s done right.
P.S. The end-of-month effect has been documented
