Now lets take a look at the charts. All signals are annotated with green circles. If you click on the charts they will become larger.

C Fund: Price broke through resistance at a littler over 206. The C Fund still has the best SCTR of any of our equity based funds at 73.6.

C Fund

 

S Fund: The S Fund moved back to neutral as the PMO whipsawed back up though it’s EMA. Price continues to climb up the established rising channel.  The SCTR is rising at 52.3 but still has some work to do to catch the C Fund.

S Fund

 

I Fund: The I Fund generated a neutral signal as the PMO and MACD both moved into positive configurations. It is the worst of our equity based funds with and SCTR of only 25.8.

I Fund

 

F Fund: The F Fund continues to hang in there. However, with the PMO falling rapidly to 44.7, it may not be for long.

F Fund

 

Our task is to monitor our charts during this rally and ensure that our money is allocated to the strongest fund and of course, as usual to make sure the trend does not reverse. That’s all for now. Have a nice evening!

God bless, Scott 8-)

    Good morning, I’ll keep this brief because I’m on the road again. This market is volatile! I don’t care what the so called experts say. I don’t care what the VIX is. I don’t care whether folks are making money or losing money. It is one of the most volatile and fluid markets I have…

    Good Day, It’s time to adjust our mix. The new mix is 100/S. Please remember that this is the percentage of money that we have invested in each fund, not the money that is taken from your check and deposited into thrift.
