If I want to know how the market is doing, I just need to look at my ROTH IRA, it's not so hot, only about 2 of 8 positions in the green. I'm also seeing divergences on the indicators...

Hi J, my friend, thank you for your visit to my home.

You know, I was reading your blog the other day and remembering when Coolhand first pointed us to the freestockcharts.com site. And I was doing a lot of technical charting back then so you asked me a couple of questions. And then you took off and we couldn't catch you for the dust!

You've been a charting wizard ever since. I enjoy reading your blogs and posts because they are always so intelligent and grounded in good technicals. Good job!
 
All the action in today's market didn't change the pretty little colored dots much. <grin>

Here's what my analytical chart showed as of close of market today:


As you can see, S and C Funds are still looking great. Bonds are looking bad and the dollar is even worse. Which helps the I Fund start to spring back up. With this kind of strength, I'm betting that any correction will be a buying opportunity. And I'm going to put my money where my mouth is! <wink>

Thanks for the complement, I can't even remember that far back. :cheesy: The quest for a mechanical infallible system is like looking for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. After so many hours you'd think I'd arrive to some conclusion, but the truth is it's not so much about having a system, it's more about planning your work and working your plan.
 
And the pretty little dots just keep filling in on the equity side. This is a snapshot of my analytical chart taken at 9 am today, MDT.


The C, S and I Funds just keep looking better and better. I have personal positions in the TNA and SSO ETFs, which are like C and S on steroids.
 
Sentiment Survey, One un-named paid subscription, and RDJ67 all bailed to "G". Now I'm worried. What does your chart say? :confused::nuts:

My chart, as of five minutes ago, looks like this:


Remember, this chart doesn't try to see into the future. It is based on past information only. But I hold positions in the C and S Fund analogs and based on this chart, I'm not selling.

Good luck with your decision and let's all be careful out there!

My guess... When all those fancy lights of yours turn green, get out of the way :D
 
Here is the latest chart from my analytical program. It looks like S Fund is the definite choice.


It may be hard to see the chart labels, but IWM, the S Fund analog, and SPY, the C Fund analog, are the only ones that are above their 3-day, 10-day, 20-day, 100-day and 200-day averages. IWM is higher than it's 5-day average volume, and the money stream surge for the past week was a numerical value of 16.10, as opposed to 6.19 for EFA and 5.42 for SPY. Also the IWM 30-day price trend versus the market is the only fund that is in positive numbers.

Yep, I'd say S Fund. And I have a significant position in TNA, the 3x S Fund analog.

Let's all be careful out there!
 
Hi Ann
Just stopped by to say hello. Thanks for your daily charts. One of the first things I look at when I log on. You started something. Now you gotta keep them updated. ;)

Hi Judy, I'm glad you find them helpful. Feedback is always 'the breakfast of champions. <grin> Thanks for your visit!
 
Ugly market day today. Here's the chart:


This snapshot was taken just a couple of minutes ago. You can see that no fund is above it's 5-day average. The S Fund analog, IWM is the only one that has a "5-day Trend vs. Market" in positive figures. Money stream (farthest column on right) is shifting to EFA (I Fund), however dollar is up today so I don't know if that will last.

I'm sticking with my TNA for the moment but I have my finger on the button.

Y'all be careful out there!
 
This snapshot of my chart was taken just a few minutes ago. It looks better than yesterday's, doesn't it!

View attachment 10901

The MoneyStream Surge says that EFA (I Fund) is now where the new money is going. IWM (S Fund) still has the best 5-Day Trend vs. Market. And because of the yellow dots and the readings on the Volume Buzz, we can tell that the SPY (C Fund) and EFA are where the momentum move up is.

I'm keeping my TNA. Let's all be careful out there!

Thank You for posting your chart. I finally took the time to look at it and study it. This is quite an impressive chart you have designed and made.

Thanks again!

Post Again, I was afraid when I replied that your chart would not show up. Sorry
