Volatility Continues And Presents A Buying Opportunity

SGS  Market Timer Status:  LONG 
LONG as of close of November 11, 2016
SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer


SGS ticked higher every day last week, signaling that sell-off since early March very likely has run its course.  On Thursday and Friday, SGS closed above its DTL signaling a good entry point for opening long positions. 


As shown on the chart above, while SGS is "LONG", i.e. SGS value is greater than zero, SGS crossing its DTL have been good points to open (when crossing above DLT from below) and to close (when crossing below DLT from above) long positions.

My Outlook

Chances are good that the sell-off since early March ended last and indices are heading higher to challenge their new all-time highs. I expect a volatile week ahead because of the election in France and the possibility of a government shutdown on Friday.

My Plan

My plan is to open my first long position of three in SPY sometime early this coming week.
