arms over 1.50:

from Gerald Hoopes "Loops" at the longwaves sidegroup:

SWers. Treating a 10-day TRIN of 1.50 or bigger as a buy signal was not
only questionable in 1981, it was disastrous. This indicator usually
works, but when it doesn't you've had it. For catching the bottom of
cyclical bear markets, it acts something like the Six by Ten TRIN. That
is, it's a necessary but not sufficient condition for a bottom. The
81-82 period is one of those periods which I consider analogous to the
00-01 period, as measured from respective Loops sell signals. [The 73-74
period is an even better analogy so I focus on it more.] If I were a
bull, the fact the current market has just flashed a buy signal by way
of an indicator which failed only in 1981 would make me nervous. Instead
of viewing 81 as an anomaly, I view it as a rather appropriate analog to
the current situation. Gerald

Q:
every level you said was critical has broken, why would you go long?

...<Technology lead this market on the way down and yesterday when they hit the last ones DOW and SPX and BKX you know we are late in the game and ready for respite and smart bounce.
Tech will lead it back up for a live cat bounce for a week or so and hence the switch from Rydex SPX Long to NDX Long.

Notice SPX/DOW proxy BKX is below death BKX 780 at BKX 774 down 1.9% and reason why dow and spx is down...All the while NDX proxy SOX is up big up 30+ to SOX 588 up 5.46% and NDX up 24 up 1.5% to NDX 1629

Bifurcation at its finest>.....
************************************

We nailed the bottom in this counter-trend bounce on NDX going in at the low on NDX as SOX and NDX lead the way.. And the ones they hit late in the game SPX, DOW and BKX close lower.

Now we see NDX and tech leading all the indices UP^^^^^^^^^^^

And in fact, Today will be the first Friday that all 4 indices DOW, SPX and NDX and COMP will close UP since Friday December 22nd...

Now MITA is as quiet as ever...

They pound me when I'm wrong and disappear when I call it dead on...

The way this is going today... Dynamic Series I could be back in black before at the close since inception in investing in rydex dynamic series if I decide to book profits..

Best Regards, J.T.
