The Start

This blog is a forward test of a weekly trend following method.
The universe is the ASX All Ords which is scanned and filtered once a week to around 30 or 40 candidates.
So far this portfolio has been monitored on the backs of old envelopes, so this blog is an attempt to tidy things up and get all the info about these trades organised and in one place.
Starting capital $50,000 and started taking positions on 14th Sept '09
This is the position at the close on Tues 27/10/09


There are no buys for this week as the portfolio is now fully invested.
Positions will be evaluated again at the end of the week to see if any exits have been triggered, if so they will be sold at the open on Monday 02/11/09
These are the closed trades to 24/10/09
No profitable trades have been closed out yet.
Stocks will normally be sold on Monday at the open, with the exception of stocks like LYC which had a share dilution and was sold as soon as it came out of the trading halt.
