I just ran semis vs Les's dataset as they got to 9% above 10D. Highly favorable results when 50/200 in bullush posture, which they are, and in current timeframe (bullish, so OS represents buy). When 50D is not as bullish and/or pre-2014, the set-up was bearish. I have a few algos trained on 2014+ data and I assume they are bullish there too. Being able to slice and dice data tells me lots of these algos will fail when conditions change. As long as we are in EW bull, probably safe. Jon PS Not as bullish as bios set-up. This is second set-up recently where bios were in better position. One guy had semis ready to collapse. Same parameters were bio bullish (ok I relaxed conditions to get 7-8 cases vs 3 and too match the actual data but would not trust bearish interpretation on smaller set given bullish set-up on less "defined" set).

Hi Kirk, Cabella's does the same thing. Any hunting innovation that comes along and is desired by hunters will be copied by Cabella's as a Chinese made knock off and offered at a lower price. Muck Boots have been the warm and comfortable knee high boot for several years - now Cabellas has their own brand. Used to be Cabella's was a place to buy brand hunting Heir looms that would be hand me downs - now some items are no longer even offered. I had a friend who sold Alaskan knives - very expensive and the highest of technology fusing diamonds with the cutting edge of steel - now Cabellas has the same thing and you can not find Alaskan knives. They copy what is hot an has high margins. Now to be taken over by Bass Pro Shops. Bob
