The GFA Alpha Mechanical Trading System entered it's first 2 positions today.

The account has $100,000 in initial equity.

at 3:52 PM the system generated two buy signals of bear ETF's

$30,000 was deployed by purchasing 1530 shares of the BIS at $19.6 with a simultaneous 5% stop loss of $18.62

$30,000 was deployed in purchasing 488 shares of QID @ $61.45 with a stop loss of 5% at $58.38

so 60% of the account equity is being utilized and the risk to the account is $3000 or 3% of account equity

The Alpha system indicated that these 2 ETF's have upper quintile risk reward features compared to the energy or SOX ETF's
