The T6 Situation- Revised...2.5.13

With this post we begin a giant step forward in building a unified and adaptive 6 component model that focuses both on short term and longer term risk/reward situations.  To help users realize and implement this approach the new T6 Lab Excel platform will be emailed to all registered T2 users this weekend at no charge.
Our methodology is quite simple and utilizes both your existing T2 platform and the new T6 Lab.
That may sound like a lot of work...I assure you it is not and will hopefully let you feel more comfortable and confident in your investments.

We have already profiled 4 sample 11 component portfolios in T2..the default version 4 model, COM, SA and WS.  These are just my spins on the market and you are always free to build any portfolios of stocks, bonds or ETFs that piques your interest.

We then select the top 1 or 2 momentum ranked components from each T2 model and build a new model in the T6 Lab.  Each week (or sooner if you are so inclined) we run the various T2 models and then update the selections in the T6 Lab to reflect the current momentum leaders. 
Here is an example of that strategy using the top 2 slots from the default model and the top 1 from COM, SA and WS + SPY as a benchmark. 

 

We'll continue to explore ways to further assure the reliability of the T6 Lab approach over the next 3 weeks.
By March 1st our ongoing focus will be one of tracking and refining the T6 Lab format using a number of new T2 portfolios to provide T6 input ideas.
