04/29/19 Status: Sell trend signal. Projection hit.

3-month focus chart.

Current market Predictions:

  • $NYXBT (Bitcoin), 4/29/18, bear trend signal. TSP (4/30) = waiting.  Downside 3-month bitcoin price forecast = Calculating.
  • $VIX signal, waiting. This is a new signal current trend is down. We are waiting for the first signal to start posting a chart.

Current price for a 4 symbol package = $7,500 quarterly.

Model notes: Bitcoin trend change signal comes after hitting our upside projection. The sell TSP should be higher than the entry (assuming tomorrows close is near today’s). So the model is still in synch with the market. The downside projection will be posted later. We plan to add a Vix signal as well. Volatility is another strange non-traditional market that should be benefitted by looking through the lens nonlinear analysis.

Note: The following comments are based on using technical analysis to ‘flesh out’ our nonlinear trading signals. TSP is defined as the closing price on the day following the signal day.

Nonlinear Trading Themes:

  • Bitcoin forecast ($NYXBT): Now we are looking for the cryptocurrency to move lower. The market has hit the upside projection and nonlinear analysis forecasts more weakness ahead.
  • $VIX forecast: Awaiting a fresh signal (this is a new venture). The market has been beaten down in the wake of S&P 500 strength. Currently the index habitats in the 12-13 range.

Bitcoin model now on the prowl!

Current Model positions:

  • $NYXBT (Bitcoin), trend bullish, sig= 03/2, TSP=Monday’s close

 

Model notes: The Bitcoin model is now in place and we will be featuring it until the end of June. Bitcoin is one of the strangest markets and probably the least understood. Can nonlinear analysis shed light on this exotic trading vehicle. Exciting stuff.

Nonlinear Trading Themes:

  • Bullish trend ($NYXBT): This market has taken some hits in the past as commercialization has bought seller into the ring. This means the market can go up or down. Nonlinear analysis is calling the trend up. The inference is that the 7000 level is a viable support area and not likely to be violated. This is our first signal for this market.

 

Premium Research notes:

Observation: We now have the new fee structure in place (check the “Fees” tab for details). Get your independent research here, put my 25+ years of model building experience to work for you!

Take a minute to peruse the US Equities tab. I posted the S&P 500 trading signals postmortem for the recent March-April time period (approx. as it took about a week to generate a signal at the beginning). Plus 134 Points. Great stuff!

Take a minute to check out the Forex tab on our website. I am posting the recent US Dollar May-June signals. No whipsaws and playing the surprise Brexit vote just right. Great stuff!

Take a minute to take a minute to click on our bond trading tab. Our signals took the profits in the early month while holding the long interest rates position later. It never sold rates, hinting at higher rates to come. The TBT went higher outside our test window. A nice tip-off for the future!

Check out the energy tab. We tracked crude during the run up to the US presidential election. There was plenty negativity with a surprise ending. See how nonlinear analysis walked us through it!

Bulls in control of financial markets

Current Model positions:

  • $TNX (rates) bullish signal date = 10/02, TSP = 23.34
  • $SPX bullish signal date= 10/11, TSP = 2550.93

 

Model notes: The models continue to avoid “being faked out” (selling too early in a sustained uptrend) a common problem in overly optimized systems. Still waiting to get the final answer on the upcoming Bitcoin model. Exciting stuff. Let’s look at the charts.

 

Note: The following comments are based on using technical analysis to ‘flesh out’ our nonlinear trading signals. TSP is defined as the closing price on the day following the signal day.

 

Nonlinear Trading Themes:

  • Bullish Yields ($TNX): This market has broken north of a trading channel. The rate malaise in 2017 was a constant source of speculation as the stock market rocketed off. I guess the bond guys ran out of buyers.
  • Bullish Trend Stocks ($SPX): Stocks hit some selling today. There may be some follow-through selling but the force of the recent bullish acceleration does not appear to be in danger yet.

Financial Markets Power up!

Current Model positions:

  • $TNX (rates) bullish signal date = 10/02, TSP = 23.34
  • $SPX bullish signal date= 10/11, TSP = 2550.93

 

Model notes: The models continue the to track these markets pretty well. One of the weaknesses in models can be the tendency to pick “tops” during powerful uptrends, that really are not tops. It is called being faked out. So far, the models are staying with the market movement. Bitcoin is going to be joining us soon. Very exciting stuff. Let’s look at the charts.

 

Note: The following comments are based on using technical analysis to ‘flesh out’ our nonlinear trading signals. TSP is defined as the closing price on the day following the signal day.

 

Nonlinear Trading Themes:

  • Bullish Yields ($TNX): Rates are starting to ramp up. The US Government shut down, though duration expectations are modest, are probably helping with this. If the shut down duration becomes more of a concern a convexity may occur. Anyway, we are tracking the trend pretty well.
  • Bullish Trend Stocks ($SPX): The Jan 16 one day technical reversal had no follow-through and the nonlinear models were not fooled either. So here we go!

Was yesterday a S&P reversal day?

Current Model positions:

  • $TNX (rates) bullish signal date = 10/02, TSP = 23.34
  • SPY bullish signal date= 10/11, TSP = 254.64

 

Model notes: The models continue the to track the trends pretty well. I am placing this post in the morning before the 9:30am (EST) market open. Prices are through the end of day of Jan 16. Due to a change in my work schedule, I will have to place more early morning posts versus my usual late-night posts. By the way, we are working on Bitcoin signals too!  Let’s look at the charts.

 

Note: The following comments are based on using technical analysis to ‘flesh out’ our nonlinear trading signals. TSP is defined as the closing price on the day following the signal day.

 

Nonlinear Trading Themes:

  • Bullish Yields ($TNX): Rates are starting to ramp up. The intellectual argument of an improving economy have been in place for a year now, finally the bond market seems to be smelling it. NL models have the trend as up!
  • Bullish Trend Stocks (SPY): Tuesday’s move higher then closing lower was technically a downside reversal day. But is it significant. Is it a reversal of the trend? Not according to the nonlinear models, bluechip trend is still up!

Models are in well placed positions!

Current Model positions:

  • $TNX (rates) bullish signal date = 10/02, TSP = 23.34
  • SPY bullish signal date= 10/11, TSP = 254.64
  • $VIX bearish signal date= 10/11, TSP = 9.91

Model notes: The models are in well placed positions, with all trades currently “in the money” so to speak. Another thing that is going well is that the models seem to be in the right “time zone,” meaning they seem to be operating at a trading frequency suitable for the 2-week type of window I am aiming for. Also the equity signal moved to the correct side quickly (“don’t let losses run”). This is a good report.

 

Note: The following comments are based on using technical analysis to ‘flesh out’ our nonlinear trading signals. TSP is defined as the closing price on the day following the signal day.

 

Nonlinear Trading Themes:

  • Bullish Yields ($TNX): Rates have been hesitant on the economy, but with the recent 3rd quarter 3.1 number, they are now starting to climb with some conviction. What could the number have been without the hurricanes? Models have the trend up.
  • Bullish Trend Stocks (SPY): Stocks are benefitting from the economic numbers as well. The Catalonia independence movement is likely to affect US bluechips only indirectly. The technical breakout looks good and the models are still on the buy side.
  • Sell Trend Equity volatility ($VIX): Volatility Should be going down now that bluechips are trending higher, But the mercurial VIX is so low already it’s acting like something pushing on a firm spring, thus struggling to go down. For opportunist traders the best bet may be to “keep your powder dry” and wait to buy after the next bull ish signal. The models see lower values ahead for now.
