Some days the market is just humbling. And salt to the wound, I ignored the early buy signal after an 8 point gap up because it just seemed to rich.... and left a quota plus of losses on the table shorting sell signals at extremes of some 15 further points higher... I'd feel really bad about it if it didn't leave one some amazed... The market can do anything... and eventually will. But the Persistent Trend Model is not the model of high percentage. First frame volatile swings and Test-n-Reject occur each month almost three times as much. So I will return to my current Trade Plan tomorrow knowing this kind of action is not the norm, but the exception.
