First cash position: selling TTM with no replacement.
The model is showing that the long bias in the market is continuing to weaken. It is STILL long, but only with net 30% strength.
Please keep in mind that this “bias” on the model is not directly related to the market as a whole – only to current investment opportunities within the industries I monitor.
As always, a negative gap would prohibit the sale.

Gaps
Hi Tim,
When you get a chance, can you elaborate on you definition of the buy/sell gaps that prohibit a trade in your model? Meaning, is it fixed on a %, $ amount or simply a discretionary call?
When their is both a buy & sell signal, if both gap away, are both gaps analyzed as a whole or would a single gap negate a transaction?
Thanks,
Harry

Buys and sells are relative
If I'm trading one stock for another and they gap together, I'll still trade.
In the case of TTM, it will be against the dollar, since it's going to cash -- which is unusual for the model.
But if the sell gaps down and the buy gaps up, I don't want to chase the trade. I'll just recalculate for another day.
