Up to Sept 8th 2014, everything was going extremely well as my regular account was actually up 46%. But then the market got extremely volatile and I got to enjoy a 20% drawdown. The final return was just 15% a little ahead of S&P500 but not by much. Considering this was a leveraged portfolio I was hoping for higher return. But at least it beat the S&P500 and I didn’t lose money. My retirement account never had lift off this year. It maxed out at 9% but at end of year had only a 3% return. In 2013 it was up 18% which was fantastic. This account was never able to make much progress after Sept, when market volatility began in earnest. I think it was tough year for anyone trading…even for OmniVest. In IBD, the top 20 Mutual Funds averaged only 2.3%, hedge funds in general were unable to beat the market. My hope is that Nirvana adds the ability to upload your own custom built strategies from OmniTrader which you can then bash to all the dynamic and historic lists in OmniVest’s “Strategy Lab”. I added more on this at this post: http://www.omnitrader.com/currentclients/omnivestforum/thread-view.asp?threadid=4034&posts=25 I also still have a lot of exploring to do in Portfolio Wizard, Portfolio Balancer, Dynamic Lists, Historic Lists, OmniPortfolios, etc... I plan to continue strongly into the new year and I’m certainly not giving up. I feel there’s tremendous opportunity here…but it won’t come easy. | |
