Sell SPY · July 17, 2009
The oscillator closed at 76.81, above its sell line of 70.53. 209 issues advanced and 284 declined. SPY closed at 94.13.
The signal did not stop there. It went on firing for 2 days across 2 sessions, through to July 21, 2009, and while it was still firing SPY went +1.53% 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.
