Looking at my indicators, I would have to say avoid them. Only on the Dow and the Utilities am I getting anywhere near negative readings. The S&P is positive as is the TRN and the NAZ. There might be some gain from putting the DOW, but I have to wonder whether there is much to be had on the short side. NEUTRAL NEUTRAL NEUTRAL NEUTRAL NEUTRAL NEUTRAL. That is the essence of the signals that I see right now. Has been that way for about a month now. Look to the political front for indications that impeachment will happen. That could well take the markets down for a while. Outside of that, I see no reason to be either long or short at this time, although one has to remember that we are coming upon a seaonally strong period of the year. BWDIK?

One person who makes his living on options with large moves recommends 3$ OEX options. For large moves you have the best leverage. The only problem is if your timing in not exactly right or the move isn't what you expect, then you will lose the mortgage on your house. Not recommended unless you know what you are doing.

Best Wishes,
