As of the close of last Friday (10/27), the value of SGS was calculated to be -804.  The status of SGS remains SHORT. 

S&P 500 Support And Resistance Levels

Support and resistance levels for SPX for this week are shown above.  There is a good chance that selling since late July has run its course.  Last Friday SPX finally found support around 4100 late in the day.  There is a good chance that SPX 4100 holds as the bottom for the current sell-off assuming the military conflict in the Middle East does spiral out of control.  

My Plan

No change, I'm in cash (except for two small crypto positions) and planning to wait until SGS status changes from SHORT to NEUTRAL before considering open new long positions.

SGS is a Long-Term (weeks to months) Timer
SGS Performance Data 
Why Market Timing Is A Must

SGS-ST is a Short-Term market timer that uses past hourly data of SPX and NDX to predict SPX and NDX price action for the next day:

 Green Day  ---> SPX and NDX very likely close higher than their open
 Red Day  ---> SPX and NDX very likely close lower than their open
 Neutral Day  ---> Inconclusive 

The system buys SPXL and TQQQ (equal dollar amount) at the open on green days and sells them at close.  On red days, the system buys SPXS and SQQQ (again in equal dollar amount) and sells them at close.  There is no trade on neutral days.

SGS-ST performance and its trades are shown on SGS-ST Performance Google Sheet.  This page is also updated once a prediction for the next day is available (around 5 PM PST).

S&P 500 Support And Resistance Levels

Support and resistance levels for SPX for this week are shown above.  There is a good chance that selling since late July has run its course.  SPX 4200-4100 is still in play and should SPX trades there on a panic, it would be an excellent buying opportunity.  

My Plan

No change, I'm in cash (except for two small crypto positions) and planning to wait until SGS status changes from SHORT to NEUTRAL before considering open new long positions.

Why Market Timing Is A Must

Last Friday, SPY tested and breached its TUL-2 but it closed well above that  important support line.  That is bullish, however, in light of what is happening in the Middle East, there is a good chance that SPY sells off to test support around 410 early this week.
