After Equity ETF Opportunities, Back to Neutral

Yesterday I mentioned “the last time the market has had a 2-day cumulative ConnorsRSI reading (the past two days added together) of under 30 was on June 24 and the Fed proceeded to step in and launch a 5 week upward move”. Cumulative ConnorsRSI levels under 30 tend to do a good job of identifying […]

Oversold Around the World

Yes, I wrote that it was “a bit odd to see the U.S. lag like this but one good day’s rally will take care of this” and that’s the way it played out as yesterday’s rally has taken the U.S. into neutral/slightly overbought conditions. A follow-through today will allow the Daily Battle Plan Model Portfolio […]

It’ a bit odd to see the U.S. lag like this but one good day’s rally will take care of this. The futures are showing a higher open as of 7 […]
