1/12/2025 Markets were lower again for the week, as T-Bonds dropped more on Inflation Fears (FEAR Flush). T-Bonds are now very over-sold now on FEAR, and should bounce up soon. This should help the weaker Indices like the DOW 30, NYSE, & Small Caps to bounce up off the Green Lines.
Fear is high now (CNN FEAR INDEX), and that is when we like to Buy. The Leading Stocks (the 17 % that are still above the 50-day averages) should bounce up nicely when Bonds complete the massive Margin Flush, and finally bounce back up to a NO FEAR level. Stocks Markets have been adjusting to higher long term Interest Rates (up from 3.9 % to 5.0% since FED Cuts).

Bonds should bounce up towards the Green Line once the temporary FEAR subsides, and long term Interest Rates should fall. Then Stocks Indices should adjust back up higher again when Rates fall. Try to Buy investments that are still above the 50-day avg. (Red Line).
Bit-Coin become over-sold and should be bouncing up to retest the recent High (if it can hold above the 50-day avg.).
We Buy the strongest Leaders that make new highs, on pull-backs. So follow the Green Line System and you should continue to win more than you lose. SEE WATCH LIST
With the Green Line System, your Money should flow into the Strongest areas and your Account value should be able to grow in both Bull and Bear Markets. Follow the MONEY, not the MEDIA.

QUESTION: RUI writes “On the Portfolio page with the current positions, what is the parameter to shift the “legend” to yellow “Don’t take a loss?”
ANSWER: Hi Rui. Usually after a Money Wave Buy Signal, the Investment should pop 3-6% in a few days. When the Money Wave is > 50 and the Investment is not doing well, then something might be wrong (maybe the Market has not have bottomed).
So for Short Term Trading we suggest getting out Before you take a Loss, and try to get back in Lower. Or Wait for another Buy Signal. There will be plenty more.
Good trading, and tell your friends!
