On the front of the site we have a published general market direction indicator. This can be used as a guide for general longer term trading strategies. For example a suggested strategy might be to exit your “long” mutual fund positions in alignment with signal changes. For example when the direction indicator is down, exit your positions to cash, but continue to keep funding your 401K, IRA etc with new contributions even though the indicator is down. This is because we want to continue buying into the 401K but effectively we will be doing it a lower cost basis levels. When the indicator turns back up, re-enter those mutual fund positions which will now contain the previous funds as well as the newer contributions ideally bought at lower levels. Note: this is just a suggestion as one way to trade this, we are not financial advisors so please read and adhere to the disclaimer below. if you are interested in becoming a member of our service which provides specific trade suggestions please Click Here
