    How come Matt’s system isn’t short

    That's kind of an odd ball question.  

    If I had the system on XLF I'm sure it would be short.  But I assume you are referring to SPY system, why would that be short knowing how the system generally works? you've been here for years and should have a good understanding of the basic works of it. The market had a strong uptrend with all the MA's pointing up so it's not just gonna short that, most of the shorting is during bounces in bear markets.  The system can do rare exhaustion shorts when the market is really overbought but those are really hard to trigger, such as say 40 consecutive closes above the 15 day MA etc, we don't have anything like that.  Yes we have a Negative Div on the daily SPX charts via the MACD, but the system is flat, which is where it should be. Except for the breakout trade, the system is generally going to look to buy pullbacks when the MA's are pointing up, not shorting.  

    the SPY system is finished and so is ES - both systems are flat, and it would now take a really good pullback to get them long as I only have the highest probability systems remaining. As far as shorting, if the market forms a significant top here then they will look to short rallies.  And other short trades that could occur are the 60 Stochastic 80% reversal.

    Here's an image of the new SPY system, The system did quick shorts early on in the market rally, and one exhaustion short in late Feb. It did a long entry on the pullback into early March. It also did a breakout long trade from mid Jan to mid Feb.  

    This image shows 6 charts.  This version is called SPY Highest probability, all the short sub systems are on the bottom left chart (8 of them), you can see that during the uptrend from Dec it would have taken 3 small shorts in Jan and one in late Feb, all for small profits).

    9 long sub systems are on the middle upper chart. and various other sub systems are on their own, so a total of 6 charts. You can see for longs the system would have been in a breakout long from mid Jan to mid Feb, and one in March recently, two nice long trades

    All the sub systems are flat, I will let everyone know when one of them goes long or short. I will sending out trades for each of the 6 charts.  There can and will be trades that overlap one another, but that's a good thing.

    anyway enough of that, I wasn't going to get into that intra day, but your question prompted it.  when the system is going to do a trade I will let everyone know
