The Cross-Overs

Three cross-overs are followed: Price Change Tipping Point, MACD and RSI.

Price Tipping Point. A total of the slope differential of the current closing price to the prices of previous closes. A buy signal occurs when the total goes over zero and a sell goes below.

Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) I use an optimal value.

Relative Strength Index (RSI) Like the MACD - RSI crossover uses an optimal value.

Yet Another Model Rebuild

Due to the fact that I was modifying the model generator prior to the Yahoo data failure and not taking into consideration those modifications I discovered the newly built models for this blog were incorrect.  So this morning the models were rebuilt.  The results are more consistent.


So the paper account has been reset and no activity in that account will be recorded until a new buy signals are generated.

Reset and Rebuild

It appears the Yahoo Financial corrected its historical database over the past Easter weekend.  So I am going to restart the model reports.

Other changes: the DRN 3X Real Estate is replaced by UGLD - VelocityShares 3x Long Gold ETN
and RETL 2X Retail is replace by UGAZ - VelocityShares 3x Long Natural Gas ETN


All 10 models are rebuilt and as of today all models are sold.

Unreliable Data From Yahoo

I use Yahoo's financial quote server to get the historical data used for the models.    There are some very large gaps of data in the Yahoo database.  For instance take a look at the ETF EEM there is almost a month of data missing from the middle of Dec '13 through the middle of Jan '14.

I will not be posting updates until Yahoo has corrected its database or until I find a more reliable source of historical data.
