One warning . . . seasonally is great, until it is not all that great.

Everyone should keep in mind that seasonals contain data that was very much
"against the seasonal" in any given year or time frame.

As I have said before (specifically on bonds) seasonality is about the 6th
indicator one should follow . . and then only as a confirming only.

It is said that if one works hard at it, one can always find a seasonal that
supports what one is looking for.

Attached is the weekly bond seasonal that had worked so well before not
working so well.  My comments to at the time to another poster was, be
careful . . . of "seasonals"?
