Sell SPY · March 5, 2002

The oscillator closed at 73.70, above its sell line of 68.12. 201 issues advanced and 290 declined. SPY closed at 115.38.

The signal did not stop there. It went on firing for 2 days across 2 sessions, through to March 7, 2002, and while it was still firing SPY went +1.19% 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.

This entry was written the day the signal fired. The outcome rows below were filled in automatically as the sessions elapsed, whatever they said. Nothing on this page has been edited since.
