SPY and ES reversion to mean systems update

    Posted by matt on 9th of Mar 2023 at 02:44 pm

    As you know the systems have been in cash for SPY and ES - nice exits on their longs last week instead of holding obviously.

    Today I don't see anything triggering on ES/MES. On SPY earlier I saw the QE BTS system showing a a trigger, it's now gone with the slight bounce off the lows, but obviously will come back if price moves down again. On the first image this is the one in the middle left where you see the arrow.

    I think you guys scared the systems - doesn't look like any of the systems are triggering now.

    DigiNomad, correct, on 4-hour and longer time frames the stops are above the price in a downtrend. I see a completed sequence of waves to the upside on /ES at Feb highs, however not yet on /NQ. /NQ might want to have one more push up to form a lower high to complete its sequence of waves to the upside.
