The Double RePo Bearish Signal.
Along with other criteria, I trade with 9 Directional Patterns that I have developed over the last 30 years. One of the most accurate of these Directional patterns is the Double RePo which has had an amazing, documented history, of calling major turning points in a wide variety of Financial and Agricultural markets.
An unconfirmed monthly Double RePo is certainly in place in the DOW as of February 10th 2000. It will likely be confirmed at the close of the month. All we need for this confirmation is a close under the 10,648.
On our client web pages http//www.fibtrader.com we have expressed warnings regarding this signal as early as last November. If you had access to this information, your doing well. If you have gotten out of equity retirement funds as suggested, your on your way to preserving your capital while others will likely see serious deterioration. Regardless of what takes place, the central point with this type of signal, it to be prudent, to eliminate excessive risk. After all, risk control is what this game is essentially about. As shown on the client page link, we have only gotten 2 of these signals in the past 10 years, and both have had enormous impact.
There are always cautions. The Double RePo has not been confirmed and won't be until we get a closing under the 3X3. The thrust on the last leg was not what we would have liked. None the less this in my estimation is worthy of serious play. Our MACD confirms this negative action!
For those of you that do not already have a position there usually is a nice throw back on which to get short even after the confirmation.
Here's some ways to take advantage of this signal. Get out of equities, retirement funds etc. Take only sell signals or take the shortest of buy signals both in terms of profits and time frames. Hit retracements on rallies back to the old highs on volatile stocks and indexes. Buy puts on rallies back to the old highs on volatile stocks and indexes. Sell naked calls on rallies back to the old highs on volatile stocks and indexes. Look for directional signals and trends on weekly dailies & hourlys to get short. Use minesweeper bonsai etc as entry techniques as described in my trading course. Watch for a Double RePo Failure. But demand that this failure be across different indexes like the NASDAQ, DOW and S&P, before determining that this major sell signal is dead! (cont)
