Yes, the market declined in January then rebounded. But it did so with less momentum suggesting a double top was forming. MomentuMonkey is not a short term technical indicator, but a combination of a valuation and momentum indicator. I will only turn postive if one or more of the following occur:

S&P 500 earnings improve dramatically over estimates.

Interest rates decline substantially

Earnings momentum of the top 10 stocks in the S&P picks up dramatically

Price momentum of the top 10 stocks in the S&P 500 improves dramatically

The US dollar increases substancially

Or a combination of the above.

But it can be used as a short term indicator. I have noticed that everytime the indicator shows a reading of less than -15%, the market tanks in the next few days.

If you are a short term trader, I'd suggest you pay attention. After the close today, the model showed a -19% reading...its most bearish reading since I revised it!!
