Would like to start by thanking almighty God, who once again guided us through these tough markets. Now, congratulations to all who are long and are enjoying the ride. Today we saw an explosive move in the US markets. Best part is that none of the sell signals were triggered today. Therefore, we are still holding - possibly till next IPM turn window.

Applicable Rule:
- Sell (1/2) at profit objective 1 to minimize draw-down

- Do not go long or short without trigger to prevent losses by market moving against you.
- Observe stop-losses to minimize draw-downs
- If stops are hit ==> Wait on the sidelines for new opportunity near IPM Turn window
