The oscillator closed at 41.47, below its buy line of 43.41. 207 issues advanced and 268 declined. SPY closed at 124.06.
The signal did not stop there. It went on firing for 3 days across 7 sessions, through to February 17, 1999, and while it was still firing SPY went -2.04% against the call. A signal that keeps repeating is not the same event as one that resolves in a session, and reading only the first day would say otherwise.
