I bought back into the stock market today (FFIDX). Decided at the last moment to again go with the more S&P500-oriented FFIDX instead of the NASDAQ-oriented FDEGX, thinking that professionals may still do more unwinding of their huge high-tech buys over the past few months.

Today's rally is very broad, a very good sign! And bonds rallied strongly at the end of the day. The short-term outlook is good!

This past few days demonstrates what my methods do in a market that starts getting choppy. On Thursday I bought FFIDX, it rose Friday with the market, but on today's big decline I sold. I made a 0.55% profit and am now in cash again.

This is the type of quick trading you'd have to be able to do in order to use my current methods. But, I'm starting to realize that many people can't trade this way. So, I'm beginning to look at my longer term indicators, to see if I can formulate a model that gives you most of the market's gains, while still avoiding a large portion of down periods.

With regard to your question on signals for trading the S&P500: My models are all based on the NYSE Index. But, if you look at a long-term graph comparing the NYSE Index with the DJIA or S&P500, you see they're all pretty well aligned. Only the NASDAQ is different. In the past 4 months it's been on its own journey, as we all know.

I'm going to put a register/subscribe form on the web page, but for now you can just send me an email address to which you want me to send the subscriber messages.
