Doug Capehart’s new cycle book on Seasonal Cycles for High-Probability Stock Trading 2020 was published in late January, jut in time for the start of a New Year in stock trading.
And wow, is it making a huge difference!
We’ve been tracking the results so far as the year has progressed, checking out the actual market performance as compared to the meticulous back-testing Doug has included in his breakthrough cycle book.
The results are pretty phenomenal.
So far there have been 16 different trades that began in January and were also completed in January or on the first couple of trading days in February. (There are others that began in January but haven’t been closed out yet, so we haven’t included those in our list.)
Of those 16 trades that were mentioned in Doug’s cycle book as high-probability movers in the market, 14 have been successful, right in line with the back-testing results that Doug so carefully researched.
That’s an 87.5% track record of success so far this year!
The Cycle Book Results So Far
Here are what those results look like. Note that in some cases our entry or exit dates were a day off from the dates mentioned in the cycle book, because of markets being closed on weekends or holidays. But in each case we followed the trade guidelines as closely as possible.
The results we’ve recorded here are based on the daily closing prices at the start and finish of each trade. We’ve also calculated the profit or loss for a hypothetical $5000 position in each of the trades, to present a clearer picture of the actual results from the trades in cycle book.

And of course that’s not all! From AAPL to XLE, you’ll find dozens of stock trades listed for each month of the year in this definitive book. It’s really a huge value, especially if you’re serious about making money in the stock market with a minimum amount of effort.
