Excellent trade in the TQQQ Trading Strategy with a gain of 11.22%. Swing trading leveraged ETFs can work well if you have the patience and discipline to stick to a strategy.
After a couple of losing trades, it is excellent to get a trade that had such a nice gain. What was interesting this time was that the TQQQ Trading System bought TQQQ twice.
If you have the eBook, you know that the system can buy TQQQ up to four times in a row. In this most recent trade, the system put 25% of the available capital into the trade twice, meaning we invested 50% of the money allocated to the system. That was good as it allowed us to buy more TQQQ on the way up after that decline that started on September 28th.

TQQQ bounced around over the next couple of days, gapping up but then pulling back over the next couple of days. Subsequently, the TQQQ ended up looking oversold again, so another 25% of the capital was invested on October 15th, after the next Green Bar showed up on October 14th. Once again, we bought TQQQ at the opening price of $134.60.
The share price moved up nicely and ultimately showed a Red Bar sell signal (over-bought) on October 20th. As a result, we sold all of the shares in TQQQ on October 21st at the opening price of $141.44
