Feb 12: Closing Read Signal weight became much less negative during the 2:30 bar, price closing the opening gap. Signal weight closed at +134, the Change +39. On Tuesday, signal weight will need to turn negative or we'll see a slope change back up later in the day. The trading model is short SPY at 107.10 with a gtc exit at 106.10
Feb 12: 11:30 Short Signal Confirmed at SPY 107.10 The short has confirmed, the trading model is short SPY at 107.10 with a gtc exit at 106.10.
Feb 12: 11am Slope Change Down Confirmed, Early Enter Short signal issued. The slope change down has confirmed, an early enter short signal issued that will confirm at 11:30am if signal weight exceeds -270
Feb 12: 10:30am Early Slope Change Down Signal issued. Signal weight continues very strongly negative. This signal will confirm at 11am if signal weight exceeds -540. Expect a dual signal at the beginning of the next bar..slope change/early enter short.
Feb 12: 10am Signal weight -1965, Slope +35, Change -139. A slope change down will trigger next bar at the current level of signal weight.
Feb 12: 9:42am Refresh your Delineator charts (hit F4), the data problem on the Secondary is fixed.
Feb 12: Opening Read Today is OSI, Option Symbol Integration. It's a massive rewrite of all option symbols. It's causing massive problems on all exchanges. You'll notice that the Primary is correct today, but the Secondary's value is not. I am told the data on the Secondary will be regenerated this evening. Believe any signals coming from the Primary. We know that the Slope on the Secondary was -3.3 yesterday, and today's strong negative signal weight will have it lower. So any short signal coming today is correct.
Signal weight -2119, TTXSlope next bar at this level of signal weight.
Feb 11: Closing Read The up cycle on the Primary continues, +3035 now. The Secondary will be able to turn up tomorrow which would trigger a middle long signal. The new and improved trading model won't take any long signal tomorrow because the Secondary won't be able to close at +75. But I won't be surprised to see the gap filled per previous comments; 110.57 the set of double chevrons down.
Feb 11: 11:50 The slope change down confirmed, then signal weight reversed and we're going back up. If signal weight exceeds +1720, the Secondary will turn up and a long signal may be issued. This is the last posting for today as I have appointments away.
Feb 11: 11am Slope Change Down Signal Issued Finally...the slope change signal has issued and it will confirm at 11:30 if signal weight is less than +350. Signal weight will need to turn strongly negative soon if an early enter short signal is to be issued. At the moment, signal weight is weakly negative and could go either way. If it turns positive again, we could get a slope change up and the cycle could continue as the value of the Primary is +997 and could easily support a rise higher if signal weight rises.
Feb 11: 10:30am Signal weight once again stayed below the level needed to confirm a slope change. Your stats window now shows that signal weight will need to be greater than -60 to confirm a slope change this bar.
Feb 11: 10am The slope change signal has not confirmed as signal weight moved back below -740. Signal weight is now -665 and the slope change down signal will confirm at 10:30 if signal weight exceeds -120.
Feb 11: Opening Read Early Slope change down signal issued Signal weight has opened moderately negative at -865 and an early slope change down signal has issued that will confirm at 10am if signal weight exceeds -760.
Feb 10: Closing Read No slope change today! Amazing! Signal weight stayed positive enough to it from happening. So, obviously tomorrow if signal weight opens negative, we'll get it tomorrow...the old saying "it's not a slope change until it's a slope change." The value of the Primary is now +1018 so it's risen 10k from the lows.
Feb 10: 10:10am Signal weight now -1127, the Change -134 and TTXSlope=3 bars and a short signal shortly thereafter. This is my last posting for the day as I have appointments that will run all day today and tomorrow.
Feb 10: Opening Read Signal weight has opened flat, the Change -85, TTXSlope at this level of signal weight is 7 bars. The Primary will cross zero in value during the next bar. Unless signal weight turns strongly positive, expect a slope change down today and another short signal.
Feb 9: Closing Read Signal weight closed extremely positive at +1690, the Change now -3. Any moderation in signal weight will turn the Change strongly negative and the process of the next slope change will begin. As the Slope value is currently +670, even with strongly negative signal weight, it will take hours to turn the Primary down. There's still very little chance the Secondary will turn up tomorrow, more likely it will be in that position on Thursday if we get strongly positive signal weight tomorrow. All things equal, I'd expect a slope change down either late Wednesday or Thursday if this is a typical cycle from over-extended levels on the Primary.
Feb 9: 2:30pm Signal weight rose back to +1600+ just after the last posting, price resolving back in the direction of the Primary and making new highs. The Primary's now at -2619 and rising by 672 ticks per bar. The Primary will be approaching zero by the end of the day.
Feb 9: 11:30 Signal weight has moderated somewhat but still strongly positive at +995, the Change +15. Price has filled the opening gap and I'd still expect a retest of today's highs. Until the Primary begins to change slope, the target at the gap from 2/04 is still in play. There is now a double chevron down at 107.28 so we have to make it through that first.
Feb 9: Opening Read Signal weight has opened extremely positive at +2086, the Change +115. The trading model is neutral as it will take several days of signal weight like today's to turn it up.
Feb 8: Closing Read Unless affected by exogenous events, I still expect to see this cycle on the Primary play out for 2-3 days and reach at least zero if not +3000 or so on the Primary. It's not unusual to see a larger price moves the day after a slope change, witness the last one. But that was in direction of the Secondary and this cycle is obviously not confirmed. But if we open with strongly negative signal weight, it's still going to take hours to turn the Primary down.
Feb 8: 2:40 Signal weight now -138 and the Change has reached zero. Pretty dull bounce thus far as price reversed from the level of the single chevron down from 02/04 at 107.4.
Feb 8: 11:30 Slope Change Confirms The slope change up on the Primary has confirmed. The trading model is neutral as the slope on the Secondary is down.
Feb 8: 11am Early Slope Change Up signal issued Signal weight now +463, the early slope change signal has issued which will confirm at 11:30 if signal weight exceeds -300. As the Secondary is down, no long signal of course will be issued but I'd expect a pretty decent bounce from the overextended level of the Primary. There's also a nice big fat gap at SPY 109 which should be filled.
Feb 8: 10am Signal weight a bit less negative at -733, the Change still +39.
Feb 8: Opening Read Signal weight has opened at -942, the Change +39. With the value of the Primary greatly overextended down, we should expect to see a reversal at some point soon.
Feb 5: Closing Read Signal weight moderated during the 2:30 bar moving from -2000 to -1600 price reversing from the lows of the day. Signal weight however only moderated, it never turned positive or less than -650 until just before the close, as you'd expect. And the Primary is -10,414!
We should expect to see a slope change up on Monday. But if we open with very strongly negative signal weight again, that will certainly set up a balloon scenario which we did not get today. To have had that today, the Slope would have needed to be -80 or so and the change +100, where the next bar would be a slope change.
