This post is intended for Friday. On Monday I will be on holiday, so there won't be a post. So, be advised that both stops and new positions won't be updated until Tuesday. Unfortunately, I am the secretary as well as the founder of the BLOG, so when I take a vacation day, we all take vacation.

As you can see, out positions gained ground today. We didn't gain as much as the stock markets, but neither were we exposed to the recent downward volatility.
One new signal: buy heating oil. Note that the ETF is very risky as it is very, very thinly traded. The symbols are HON10 and UHN. The record is 50 wins out of 62 trades for 81%.
Good luck to all!
