KISS SPX and QQQ comments about trades

    Posted by matt on 31st of Mar 2023 at 02:33 pm

    Something I've discussed before but I'll bring it up again as possible rule or something to consider regarding the Index KISS systems

    As you know the QQQ daily KISS went long a few weeks ago for a nice entry, HOWEVER SPX did not, in fact it's looking to go long today now - so much later.

    Those of you following the index KISS systems, one thing you might want to consider is when one of them goes long, take at least a partial position in the other. For example instead of waiting until now to enter the SPX KISS, why not ALSO enter a SPY or SPX long position when the QQQ went long 3 weeks ago? The logic here is that the indexes will move together mostly so if the QQQ was going to up, so would SPX. Basically you take whichever one goes long first and use that as a proxy to buy into the other one as well, or at least a partial or 1/2 into that. Would have worked out nicely this time

    Market has been in a range - I term it a wrecking ball

    How do you think about

    How do you think about the situation where KISS goes long and an "A" shows up, like it is for SPX.

    Good question. In fact I

    Good question. In fact I wouldn't be surprised to see a first entry short on one of the systems. 

    that's A's need to stay

    that's A's need to stay there by the close, could still disappear. 

    and if price is overbought when one of those goes long, better to try and buy a pullback using an intra day chart or one of the smaller time frames where you get a 3 wave pullback into a cycle.

    otherwise my comments earlier about going long the SPX as well when QQQ went long 3 weeks ago, or doing the same for QQQ if SPX goes long first - when I looked at the past charts that seemed like a good strategy - first come first serve to use as a proxy to enter the other

    the QQQ system went long because of an ABC condition that triggered in the system. For whatever reason that ABC didn't trigger on SPX then,

    Risk to reward ratio on S&P long now is about 1:1, given the maximum target of 4300. Thanks for the update, Matt!
