market comment March 14

With a very handsome profit of 5,10% (C2) respectively 3,84% (real Acc.) finished SP Alpha March 2014.
The past month in the S & P500 was characterized by an unspectacular sideways trend. The respective low points could our system component #3 good use to scale-in positions. These positions could we close each near the highs with a profit.
The long-term trend-following system component could also benefited of the movement to the AllTime - Highs and leave the market at the beginning of April with a significant profit.
