<SPAN

rather than buy signals when the value jumps. A quick look through a universe
sorted by temp shows a list of very extended stocks.....

Market ThermometerMark,Anyway, from the trading
point of view, the described rules and expectations are totally
catastrophic.Both crossovers place the Long system between -75% and
-85%TheSell=Cross(MAtemp,temp);Buy=Cross(temp,MAtemp);gives ONLY
two profitable stocks for the N100 database.[+7% and +74%]All the rest have
severe losses, the best is at -21% !!The
alternativeBuy=Cross(matemp,temp);Sell=Cross(temp,MAtemp);ranks the
profits between -44% and -99%.The describedA) The best time to
enter a new position is when mkt thermometer falls below its MA.B)
exit positions when Mkt Thermometer rises to triple the height of it's
moving average.orBuy=Cross(MAtemp,temp);Sell=temp>3*MAtemp;is
a bit better, -15% for the market [since Jan2000], but +48% for the last 165
[bullish] bars.[note however that the B&H for the last 165 bars was +53%
!!]The next point C) get ready for an explosive move if the
Thermometer stays below its MA for 5-7 trading day.seems
reasonable:Buy=BarsSince(temp<=MAtemp)==4;Sell=BarsSince(Buy)==6;is
not loosing much money, but, it is far from interesting profits.As you see,
AFL gives quick own check for these "bright" ideas.Dimitris
