I also do not understand the Kiss Charts.  Are we to try to use them in our daily trading to give us signals.  Also are we supposed to use the cycle charts in some way in our daily trading.  I understand these charts are updated daily so I do not know how to use them in my trading.  Thanks

    regarding the KISS stuff -

    regarding the KISS stuff - it's a trend like following system (opposite to the reversion to mean systems), The DVT's are an idea for a higher low stop like in a 401K that someone has a long position in the market to the SPX and QQQ and want's to mostly stay invested during bull market uptrends but with a adjusting protective stop that gives you an exit plan and prevents you from holding during 10%, 20%, 30% corrections.  The two daily versions there's a tigher one and a wider one - the wider one in bull markets maybe only gets hit once or twice a year. It keeps you invested in most of the uptrends and avoids the big crashes because of the stop. 

    that said the big question now is, are we still in a bear market, if so then the KISS trend charts as I've stated 1000 times will give mostly sideways trades or small winners.  The daily systems went back long in July and have been able to raise their stops multiple times so that the DVT is higher than entries.  But again if this is simply a bear market rally within a bear market then we are not going to see a big trending trade here from them.

    The KISS stuff is a nice trending type tool for bull market uptrends. That said I don't send out trade notifications for it as I don't consider it as complete of a system as the reversion to mean systems. To me it's more of a methodology and tool set that you can use some subjective discretion with. 

    there's a video on the website that goes over some of it, however that needs updated and is old and a bit outdated but gives you an idea
