Duke,
My forecasts for the next day work out pretty well. I use a
specialist model and predict the direction and sometimes the
activity of the Dow for the next day. For yesterday I predicted
alternating Northerly and Southerly winds....Indicating lots of
large moves. By 13:30 the Dow had made 5 moves that were an average
of over 100 points. In the afternoon there were 2 - 200 point moves.
For today the forecast was strong notherly winds. And the result is
the Dow up a hair short of 150 points. I post the raw data I use for
free on the web and am looking to have it used in some commercial
product down the road.
