Hi JC,
From recent low points, both indicators are showing risk rising. The v-Wave doesn't use any smoothing averages so reacts quickly to changes in the Value Line underlying data.

The MRI has 4 components and all use exponential moving averages to help smooth out the lumps. This does slow down its reaction a bit when compared to the v-Wave. The MRI Oscillator helps this a bit by pointing the direction and relative severity of the risk pressure.

Right now risk has been rising but both indicators are still neutral. The v-Wave is just one point below its caution level. The MRI is still 5 points below its own caution territory. So, one is close to a point of worry while the other still has some distance to travel.

Both indicators were designed to give an idea of how much cash would be appropriate to hold if starting a new AIM holding and/or a cash target for ongoing AIM portfolios. Neither were designed to be "On/Off" switches for trading.

I hope this helps,
OAG Tom
