Buy SPY · October 2, 2014
The oscillator closed at 35.04, below its buy line of 35.75. 275 issues advanced and 222 declined. SPY closed at 194.38.
The signal did not stop there. It went on firing for 3 days across 8 sessions, through to October 14, 2014, and while it was still firing SPY went -3.59% 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.
