$GIMO Breakout Creates New Swing Trade Setup

market timing model: SELL Signal generated on close of Sept. 9

Last Friday’s breakdown generated a sell signal. One can still be long stocks that are holding up well.

Note that the market timing model was not created to catch tops and bottoms in the S&P 500. The model was designed to keep our trades in line with the prevailing market trend. Buy signals (confirmed) are generated when the price and volume action of leading stocks and the major averages are in harmony. This means that we could potentially have a buy signal in a major market average, but if leading stocks are not forming bullish patterns, then we are forced to remain on the sidelines until patterns improve.

Commentary:

The Russell 200, S&P 400, and S&P 500 closed near the lows of the recent range and may be due for a short-term bounce within the next few days.

Although the timing model remains on a sell signal, we can still initiate long positions in quality stocks. Being flexible within a trading system is very important, as not all buy signals and sell signals are created equal.

We have one new setup on today’s watchlist in $GIMO, placing a buy limit order just above $48. $GIMO cleared the highs of a tight-ranged base on big volume.

There is a split stop in place to guard against a false breakout. The higher stop is a hard stop, which means that it will be sold right away if triggered. The stop on the other half is on a closing basis.
