I am placing more weight on the SLO STOCH but I am watching both
the MACD histograms. If the SLO STO crosses below the 50% and MACDs
stay crossed I will go to cash. Too early to be
definitive.
The fundamentals couldn't be worse. The best market timers are
bearish. Big money option traders are short (or so I've been told),
and yet most of my charts say this is just a correction and we
still have higher highs to make. We shall see. I'm 60% long
equities (with some covered calls )and 40% cash.
Speaking of this important indicator, market timer Marty Zweig
invented a timing indicator many years ago which he named the
“Breadth Thrust” indicator. This indicator is based on the daily
NYSE advance-decline line and was designed to detect instances
where breadth moved from an exceptionally “oversold” to an
extremely “overbought” situation in a short time.
The actual “Breadth Thrust” signal
occurs when the 10-day ratio of advances to declinemoves from below 40% (which means
that on average only 40% of stocks are advancing daily) to above
61.5% within a two-week period. This signal identifies a shift in
perception that the stock market has gone from being sold out to a
much better technical condition. As analyst Michael Cintilo
recently noted, “The signals are rare, but when they arrive, they
usually portend many months of solid market performance.”
Cintilo notes that the Zweig Breadth Thrust signal occurred last
month. The 10-day A-D ratio went from 37% to 64% within a two-week
period into the end of November. “That’s a very rare show of power
that, historically, has led to big market gains,” writes Cintilo.
He went on to point out that such signals have been rare with the
last two occurring in late 2008/early 2009 and previous to that in
2001.
