Thanks Wing. I've been checking the stock futures, and it's not been looking good until last night. That must have been what changed things. S&P up a little, Mon 5:45AM EST.

Re: 2018 Strength and Market Pull
Updated EOD, Tuesday November 13, Pull came in with 2nd down-day. That’s a Pull System sell signal. This market needs to show me something before noon, or I’m outta here.

The I fund was strutting its stuff yesterday, and made userque happy. Moved him up to #7 on the YTD.
The two odd birds, F and I funds trying to kiss? I bet they'll act like they don't even know each other tomorrow.

If you're interested, I can see about building an Excel backtester for your pull system.Tomanyiron wrote: Thanks Oct, however a lot of folks will say “It proves nothing”. And I agree that there is insufficient history on the Pull, (backtesting). When I first started the Pull, I tried to do some manual backtesting, at the time I called it “Backlooking”. What if I used it in 08-09, that kind of looking back? I found that, some of the Momentum and Breath Oscillators, the Bullish Percent Indexes have not been around all that long.
Well the long story, short is I gave up, and with what little time I had, I put into the daily calculations and the presentations. If it worked better that Buy-n-Hold, great. If it worked better than some of the seasonal strategies, even better. Well the jury is still out, Got to have 3 or 4 years in a row.

Re: 2018 Strength and Market Pull
Closin' off Session Highs are never strong indicators. A lot of us have lost over 50% of YTD gains during these recent downtrends. The market wants to go down & I wish I could simply let it...
Now, for the good news, 118 of us (out of 17,552 members) are still outperforming the market (>2.72%) & for that we need to remain grateful...
Best of Luck (everyone) in all you chose to endeavor!!!

Re: 2018 Strength and Market Pull
Updated EOD, Thursday November 15, On the chart the Pull looks like it turned flat. But it did come up slightly +0.01. Why so little with a +1% price bump? Well the down inertia has been strong, and the Pull does not turn on a dime. No buy signal that I can see (even if I could), the trend has not changed yet, kinda is in flux.

On the Strength chart, the good news is the S got energized. My opinion, when this thing is officially over, it will be Small Caps that led us out of the woods.

Black Friday may make me regret that. But, "You never know what worse luck your bad luck will saved you from." Well anyway, I wished I had made my exit one day later.crondanet5 wrote:I see you are out of IFTs for November.
EDIT: Or two days before you did. OK I would take anything between that and mine.
