Hang On To Your Seats!

Why do I say this? Because one of the signals is frightening to me....so it is probably right. Buy the Russell 2000. Note that seasonality is against this trade. "Sell in May and go away," has been right more often than not. This last May was a bloodbath for the stock markets and we were out. However, this signal bucks the trend down....it only has a 69% win ratio, but with a fairly tight intial stop.

Buy Cotton. This signal had a 90% win ratio. Buy the Canadian Dollar. This signal was 84% profitable historically. Details of each signal will follow tomorrow morning. Good luck!
