All four of our market timing indicators are BEARISH, so we are remaining hedged for now using a 5% TWM 2x INVERSE ETF. When our market timing indicator#1 switches to a buy, we will remove our hedge and go whole hog LONG. Yesterday, the McClellan oscillator spiked below -80  which almost GUARANTEES upside action for the next days or weeks. We may have hit BOTTOM today. DO NOT BE SHORT HERE!!! We may DAY TRADE a nice big fat long play here as a result.

MARKET TIMING INDICATOR #1 IS STILL BEARISH AND SO ARE WE

We bought a 1% position in AAP (Advance Auto Parts) @ $72.42 and we may buy another 1% if it dips lower in coming days, which it might. A BARGAIN PRICE for a GREAT STOCK! – this is a long term holding.

LONG 1% POSITION ON EARNINGS MISS

Yesterday, we bought a 1% position in APP (American Apparel) @ $0.85 cents a share. We think we can trade out at $1.00 within one month.

BOUGHT A 1% POSITION AT 85 CENTS A SHARE

We also bought a 1% position in PTM at $16.80 – VERY OVERSOLD and PLATINUM is a commodity the world needs!!!

LONG 1% PTM AT $16.80

Our McClellan oscillator SPIKED into BUY territory today, and this almost ALWAYS means that the market has bottomed (at least for a few days or more – if not longer!) VERY GOOD NEWS for people who have been LONG during this downside action of recent months! CHECK IT OUT!

TODAY'S SPIKE BELOW -80 ALMOST ALWAYS MEANS A BOTTOM!!!

INTRADAY: Means we could be in and out of a stock in a matter of minutes or hours and unless you are a day trader, you should keep away from these trades.
SWING TRADE: Means we are probably going to hold the stock for a few days, but you need to be watching for the sell signal every day during market hours and be ready to make a trade within one minute of notice.
LONG TERM HOLDING: Means we plan to hold the stock for more than a month and quite possibly for a year or more.

Our market timing indicators are BEARISH, so we are remaining hedged for now. If this year’s market action follows last years, we are bottoming out right now and are due for a nice rally, however, the likelihood that we will have an exact repeat of last years market action is UNKNOWN so we will wait for a bullish signal before we remove our hedge. We think a plausible downside target for this move is 2875 – so we are PROBABLY close to a short term bottom right here. WE REMAIN HEDGED.

We added 1% to our MCD position and bought a 1% position in SYY. Both very oversold.

We were stopped out of our KORS long @ $39.33. A loss. Our market timing indicators are telling us to remain SHORT or CASH for the time being. When our market timing indicator #1 turns bullish — we will too.

If we repeat last year's action then a bottom is very near... if!

We bought 1% positions in MCD(91.88) and SLV(28.14). Both oversold and great long term holdings. We are still BEARISH until our market timing indicator turns bullish. As such, we are long 5%TWM 2x INVERSE ETF as a hedge against our longs. We may get a bounce here but we don’t think the fat lady has sung yet. We expect a bottom at COMPQ 2875. We are close… but probably not there yet.

Oversold RSI. 200 EMA support. The weekly chart looks oversold too!

Oversold RSI and STO, plus hollow red bottoming candle...

NO CHANGE IN STRATEGY.

We bought a 1% position in KORS @ $41 and added 1% to our SLW, now 2%, @ 26.79.

Expect a lot of market CHOP and WHIPSAW.

SHORT TERM BEARISH:
Our Market Timing Indicator #1 (our most accurate and beloved) = BEARISH. We have good reason to believe that we could see a 3-5% correction here before a bounce and rally, however, we need to respect our indicators #2, #3 and #4 as they are still BULLISH. We are LONG a 5% TWM INVERSE 2x ETF as a HEDGE against the expected downside.

STILL BEARISH - CAUTION - GOOD TIME TO BE CASH OR HEDGED NOW

WE BOUGHT 1% MORE APA HERE - OVERSOLD STO MEANS FUTURE UPSIDE!

WE BOUGHT 1% MORE FCX HERE - OVERSOLD STO MEANS FUTURE UPSIDE!

WE BOUGHT 1% SLW HERE - UPSIDE IS MUCH GREATER THAN DOWNSIDE

EXCELLENT VALUE & GREAT GROWTH PROSPECTS - LONG TERM HOLDING

Expect a lot of market CHOP and WHIPSAW.

STILL BEARISH - CAUTION ENTERING ANY NEW LONGS NOW

We bought a 3% position in TIF @ $69.85 – we love the chart, the products, the company, and its future prospects for growth in China. Technically, it is a swing trade, but we might hold onto it as a long term investment too.

NEW SWING TRADE AND POSSIBLE LONG TERM HOLDING

Expect a lot of market CHOP and WHIPSAW.

SHORT TERM BEARISH:
Our Market Timing Indicator #1 = STILL BEARISH. The indicator is only one day away from possibly triggering BULLISH so we are watching it VERY closely. We have good reason to believe that we could see a 3-5% correction here, however, we need to respect our indicators, and 3 out of 4 of them are BULLISH.

Our Market Timing Indicator #2 SWITCHED TO BULLISH and #3 switched to BULLISH two days ago — and so we sold HALF of our 10% LONG TWM 2x INVERSE ETF and going to SELL the remaining 5% LONG TWM position when indicator #1 switches to BULLISH. In the mean time, expect a lot of CHOP and WHIPSAW.

Yesterday, we sold our APU for a tiny gain. The stock has taken on a sloppy and slightly bearish tone to its action so bye bye and thank you for all the gains we have made trading it!

SHORT TERM BEARISH:
Our Market Timing Indicator #1 = BEARISH. The indicator is only one day away from possibly triggering BULLISH so we are watching it VERY closely.

Only one day away from possibly triggering BULLISH - but look what happened last year...

Our Market Timing Indicators 2 and 3 are still signaling BEARISH right now, so we are very conservatively positioned and we expect the market to trend LOWER over the next week or so. The 60 minute SP chart is NEUTRAL , the Daily SP chart is NEUTRAL, and the weekly SP chart is BEARISH, so expect a lot of CHOP and WHIPSAW.
