Performance After 50 Closed Trades

I am back from vacation and have been using the STIs sporadically. I had turned off my automated entries when the market was getting shaky a couple weeks ago and wasn't going to be monitoring my account while I was away. Throughout the past two weeks, if I was up and on the computer before 9:30, I would enter some (if not) all of the opening trades the system had queued up. I also would enter Trailing Stops for any closing orders that were queued. 

I am not sure what difference it would have made if I went "auto" the entire time or not, but after 50 closed (100 total trades), I am down -$145.15.

For perspective, the S&P 500 on the day I started (6/11/15) closed at 2108.96. Today it closed at 2103.84.

I did some math and calculated if I invested the same amount I used the STIs with into $SPY:

Opening Price 6/11/15 - $211.48. If I invested $85K, I would have 400 shares. At the close of 7/31/15, the price was 210.50. My net loss would have been -$392.00. However, $SPY paid a dividend of $1.03 per share during this period, which would make the net +$11.00.

At my documented high point, I was up $2,270.67 on 6/22/15 (I was as high as $2,500, but didn't blog it at the time). By comparison, the $SPY was 211.91, which would have been a gain of $172. 

* Commissions and fees incurred were not included in these numbers

Conclusion: It well outperformed the market when it was up. However, I lost -$135 more than the $SPY when the market was down.

Again, I am not sure how it would have performed if I kept it on "auto" the entire time. I lessened some exposure when the Greece and Puerto Rico crises were first in the news. I maybe could have stopped the opening trades altogether or went all in when the market was down. I am not sure what I could have done to improve my performance, but at least it was better than $SPY.
