Buy SPY · June 20, 2002
The oscillator closed at 35.94, below its buy line of 36.05. 154 issues advanced and 340 declined. SPY closed at 101.21.
The signal did not stop there. It went on firing for 13 days across 31 sessions, through to August 5, 2002, and while it was still firing SPY went -21.01% 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.
