Why Market Timing Is A Must


The influx of millions of new and inexperienced traders using trading apps on their smartphones and commission-free trading platforms in recent years has contributed to the increased volatility and unpredictability seen in major financial market indices. These traders, who have very little or no understanding of the market or the companies whose stocks they are trading, are more likely to make emotional trading decisions, which has lead to large price movements and increased volatility of indices.   In short, extreme volatility and chaos exhibited by major indices in recent months is the new norm now.


SGS Market Timer

As of the close of last Friday (1/27), the value of SGS was calculated to be +183.  The status of SGS remains LONG.


S&P 500 Support And Resistance Levels

Support and resistance levels for SPX for this week are shown above.  SPX closed above its PDL-1 last week.  That is bullish and signals higher prices are ahead for major indices.


My Plan

I'm planning to open new long positions in SSO and XYL sometime this week.
