CRACKING THE CODE OF THE MARKET’S ANNUAL CYCLES

TradeSmith’s latest development puts the power of market seasonality in your
hands.

4d ago · January 6, 2025 By Eric Fry, Editor, Fry's Investment Report

Editor’s Note: Eric Fry, here. This new year, our partners at Tradesmith are
bringing you a new way to trade.

On January 8 at 10 a.m. Eastern time, TradeSmith CEO Keith Kaplan is unveiling a
remarkable tool that can predict significant stock movements with 83% backtested
accuracy – even pinpointing specific days for potential gains. His system allows
investors to analyze profitable seasonal patterns across 5,000 stocks, with the
potential to multiply gains five to 10 times on each position.



To attend this special presentation, click here. And the best part… if you sign
up, you can try out the tool for yourself – for free!

Ahead of this event, TradeSmith Editor-in-Chief Luis Hernandez is joining us
today to explain why understanding seasonal trading patterns and market cycles
could be the key to your success in 2025.

Take it away, Luis…

The idea of trading based on cycles may seem strange.

But the truth is that humans have always been fascinated by cycles … and find
them everywhere.

Observations of cycles in the natural world led humans to develop calendars and
clocks. Tracking seasonal cycles led humans to find optimal times to farm and
hunt.

But when it comes to the history of our fascination with cycles, few examples
capture the imagination like Stonehenge.

This prehistoric English structure is one of the most famous monuments on the
planet.

One enduring theory for Stonehenge’s purpose comes from the observations made
centuries ago. The structure’s entrance faces the rising sun on the day of the
summer solstice. This observation led scientists and historians to conclude that
it was likely used to track celestial events and predict seasonal changes that
were critical to survival 5,000 years ago.

A website that shows you the biggest potential jumps on 5,000 stocks – to the
day – weeks before they occur. In 2024 alone, it would’ve pointed to gains of
250% in 38 days on (TTWO)… 101% in 10 days on (WSM)… 353% in 48 days on (AON)
and more in studies, with 83% backtested accuracy.

The builders of this structure must have made observations over decades, with no
equipment, to be able to build this structure as a seasonal indicator.

Humans built this structure to help them understand seasonal patterns, and those
patterns were critical to growing strong crops, weathering harsh winters, and
making the most of the time they had to survive and thrive.

Today, we don’t need to build huge structures to detect patterns that can help
us thrive. We have more information at our disposal and a lot more analytical
power to help us put it all together.

At TradeSmith, we’re obsessed with data and analysis about the market and that
has led us to uncover one the most critical patterns yet – the seasonality that
drives the movements of stocks across the market each year.


LAYING THE STONES: DATA-DRIVEN MARKET SEASONALITY

Investors often hear lore about market cycles that have developed over decades.
Just think about the Santa Claus Rally, the January Effect, and the advice to
“sell in May and go away.”



Market history tells us September brings declines and flash-crashes, while
November through April are the best six months for profits from the S&P 500 each
year.

Those are all examples of “seasonality” in the stock market: recurring periods
of growth or weakness that happen with such astonishing frequency that they’ve
become expected, annual events.

But we’ve discovered that seasonality doesn’t just apply to the big indexes.
Every stock has its own “seasons” to grow or decline. A kind of summer… And a
kind of winter, too. Year after year.

Tesla (TSLA) provides a good example.

This high-flying tech stock boasts some of the highest volatility among the
“Magnificent 7” mega-caps. But for all the money won – and lost – on TSLA over
the last few years, there’s one certainty…

Between May 22 and July 1, you want to bet on the electric car maker. TSLA has
shot up an average of 17.97% during that summer period, with gains 100% of the
time since its IPO in 2010:

That’s a full 14 years of summertime price spikes, starting long before it fell
under the pandemic-era spotlight. And in 2024, the pattern held true: TSLA rose
just over 16% during that five-week period.

The chart you’re seeing above is one of the latest advancements from
TradeSmith’s team of data-driven researchers: the brand-new Trade Cycles
Seasonality tool.



Expertly crafted by our development team of 74 people, who were put to the task
of finding the seasonality trends of each stock, index, commodity, and currency
in our monitoring system, we’ve created an easy-to-use tool that can select an
asset, analyze its movements, and point out its strongest seasonality trends…
with starting periods narrowed down to the day.

Here’s another example of a strong seasonality pattern on Walgreens (WBA):

Over the last 15 years, between Oct. 7 and Dec. 16, Walgreens stock has risen
93.3% of the time, with an average return of 9.2%. And here in 2024, it actually
did even better in a much shorter period of time – jumping from $8.61 on Oct. 7
to highs of $10.74 on Oct. 16. A nearly 25% gain in just eight.




A POWERFUL NEW SYSTEM FOR SEASONAL PROFITS

Tesla and Walgreens are just two examples.  Our team has delicately tuned this
tool to  uncover seasonality cycles in stocks, indexes, even currencies and
commodities.

By crunching the data and compiling the historical movements of thousands of
different assets and running 50,000 tests per day to analyze every single stock
in the major indexes, we’ve  built a new system to help predict the biggest
jumps on 5,000 stocks, through bull or bear markets. In backtests, the system’s
trades have won with 83% accuracy.

As we backtested this strategy, we realized that trading these stocks at their
very best times of year wasn’t just a novel approach; it was an incredibly
effective one.

Over our 18-year backtest, these seasonal trades delivered 857% in total growth.
That’s more than twice what the S&P delivered over the same period! Even the
worst year in our backtest – 2007 – saw an average trade of 2.5% and an
annualized return of 37.9%. Far better than the S&P 500 will earn you in any
year (but especially in 2007!)

The question now is… how can you make it work for you?

Let me show you…
