The rules

Three numbers explain the whole system

450

Ranked every day

About 450 of the most liquid U.S. stocks, scored on one scale from strongest to weakest.

20

Held at a time

Strike owns only the top 20, where the momentum effect is concentrated.

1×

Rotated monthly

Once a month it rotates out of what stopped leading and into what leads now.

Step by step

What happens each month

  1. Every trading day, Strike scores about 450 of the most liquid U.S. stocks on one momentum scale, strongest to weakest. You see it on the signal panel and in the daily report.
  2. Once a month, on a fixed schedule, it builds the orders to rotate out of names that stopped leading and into the current top 20.
  3. You review and confirm. All 20 orders arrive ready. Your part takes about 15 minutes.
  4. Orders execute in your own Interactive Brokers account, and every trade appears there the moment it happens.
Why monthly

Why Strike ranks every day but trades once a month

Momentum is about stocks that keep leading for months, not days. A stock that is hot for a week is noise. The ranking also moves slowly: three weeks later it is about 83% the same list. So one stock slipping for a few days is not a sell. Trading monthly keeps Strike in the real leaders, and it is the rule that produced the verified record.

Sectors

Nobody picks the sector. The ranking does.

Over six years the ranking has carried Strike through gold miners, software, semiconductors, power producers and space companies, whatever was leading at the time. In 2024 it moved into the AI and chip leaders while they were running, which is why that year returned +102.3%.

Why bots break

Why most trading bots fail, and why momentum doesn't

Typical trading bot

  • Finds one pattern in a few years of history
  • Trades that same pattern over and over
  • Breaks when the market changes personality
  • Someone guesses at a new pattern, with clients' money

Strike

  • Built on a documented effect, published since 1993
  • Ranks about 450 stocks on one scale every day
  • Follows leadership as it rotates between sectors
  • Same rules since 2020, through every market
