SPY Swing System update

    I or Matt should have followed up on his post although there was never any official post or email in the SPY Swing System section regarding a trade. 

    The system decided later yesterday as we pressed higher to hold the trade and ignore and prior potential signal to sell on the open.  The system is currently long and will remain long at the open.  Just because it decided yesterday to hold doesn't mean it won't change today but for now we are long with no sell signal. 

    This should also go without saying but your more than welcome to take profits on these signals as you wish.  This morning is set to gap higher providing a nice gain for anyone who took the last trade so if it will help you enjoy the weekend better I say go for it!

    Again, apologies for any confusion.

    Actually counting this one, the last 4 trades were winners.  Remember 2 trades ago I posted the profit curves and it started to break the trendline two trades ago and definitely was confirmed on the last trade

    but otherwise I completely understand, systems unlike popular opinion are not easy to trade and I think emotion can be even more of a problem with systems
