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:
S Fund:
I Fund:
F Fund: The F Fund generated an overall sell signal with no less than three indicators moving into negative configurations. The PMO, MACD, and Williams %R. The down turn in bonds is likely a result of increased chances of a FED rate hike in December. Another thing to note is that money may be moving out of bonds and back into stocks for a fall rally. That would be good for us with our 100/S allocation.
We’ll see what happens. The market is likely to be volatile with the election coming in just a month. I’m going to keep praying and watching my charts! Have a nice evening and may God continue to bless your trades!
God bless, Scott
