Now lets take a look at the charts. If you click on the charts they will become larger. All signals are annotated with Green Circles.
C Fund: Prices steady rise is pulling us closer to our next planned entry point which is the 5 EMA passing up through the 200 EMA. Depending on how the market trades, we could easily reach that signal in the next few days.
S Fund:
I Fund:
F Fund: The SCTR has now dropped to 58.2 reflecting the recent weakness of this fund.
The key right now is to be patient and not force anything. It’s easy to become too anxious and fall into a trap. Things are looking good right now, but that can easily change. We may get another chance to put some more money to work in the next two days. I’ll put out on alert it that’s the case. That’s all for tonight. Have a great evening!
